Looks like I missed Newcastle's account opening window for today. I thought my aplication had gone through and I would be able to see the new RS online but it's not there yet. As I wasn't sure I had applied properly, I applied for a second time - same result, and this time I noticed they say it could be 24 hours before I can see the account online. So now I have two "accepted" applications sitting in the Q. Let's see what happens. With Tipton BS, I had two of the same, both about to mature, with the max balance in each.

This could be a whole new subtheme - how to time applying in such a way to trick an institution into accidentally giving you 2 top rate accounts.

I don't think it's working at Newcastle. Only 1 RS is showing now in my accounts.

Oh well! Wouldn't have been the 1st time this forum had unearthed some brilliantly useful glitch

Trying to open a Christmas saver with PBS. Am an existing customer but it keeps running into a problem. Will probably go into branch to sort it out as I'm not a fan of BS online services to be honest. MHBS feels like I've gone back in time by about 20 years!

Anyway apologies for mini-rant. I just wondered if anyone else (existing PBS customers) had been having a problem too?

Existing customer. Clicked apply. As an existing customer I was given the option to login and then it took about 2 minutes. Easy.

Afraid not, mine was opened very quickly, and half of that time was just waiting for the SMS passcode. I've been avoiding anything under 6% but ended up grabbing their Regular Saver issue 34 while I was at it too.

Opened mine with Principality BS in literal minutes.
Clicked apply - prompted me to log in - check a few boxes re tax and document reads and boom - account open.

I opened online, Windows, Chrome - if that helps.

I had a few error problems too last night. Tried link supplied by ForumUser7 and got in and up and set up new account within a few minutes. https://online.principality.co.uk/Originations/LaunchPage.aspx?ProductCode=6081&ProductType=RegularSaver&CIJ=true#!
