Wouldn't you have maximised your interest by opening last week and getting an extra week's interest on your first deposit?

No they wouldn’t, because if they did that the accounts would mature a week earlier, resulting in a week’s less interest at the end.

I think that opening on the last day of the month and then putting another payment in the next day is best.

As you are earning the higher rate for 2 months worth of payments, but within two days.

Not two months.

Not so easy for me! - Had to post two different ID documents. Obviously, whats acceptable for some financial institutions is not acceptable for others.

Is it possible to 'refresh' this, as in Halifax style, please? Mine matures next May.

Anyone any idea what happens if you have pre-selected Principality BS 1 Year Regular Saver Bond (Issue 34) at 5.5% as your maturity option for the Principality Maturity Winter RS which matures on the 3rd November? Will they still honour your instructions to open it and put £250 funds into it, if it's been withdrawn before the 3rd or would they open the lower rated one, which I wouldn't want. If they might do that, I'd rather they just put £1 in a basic saver to maintain my loyalty account and long-term membership.
