Just double checking but is there any issue at all with cancelling the HSBC Regular Saver SO and just paying in manually on the 1st of each month? I know with First Direct you have to keep the SO going.0

Me too, and I was surprised when I didn't receive the usual email & SMS confirmation of deposit.GetRichOrDieSaving said:
I sent £300 this morning via faster payment so now expecting this to bounce back. Thanks for the heads up.PloughmansLunch said:13th payment is not allowed for my Gatehouse RS if anyone else is trying to squeeze one last deposit in this month
The Key Product Information document states that £300 is the maximum that you can pay in 'each calendar month', and there's no mention of a maximum account balance, so not sure why a 13th payment has been rejected?3 -

It looks as if people who requested a full withdrawal got theirs first thing, but those of us with a maturity option and part withdrawal are awaiting funds in the nominated account.Digital_Payback said:
I asked for £20 to go to a Tipton EA Account and the rest to my nominated current account.I wouldn't worry - I asked for the majority of mine to be sent to my nominated account which is yet to happen (£10 is correctly showing on the Tipton Easy Access).The RS Saver is now a Maturity EA Saver in the app as of this morning, but no funds yet in the nominated account.Maybe I’ll have to wait to Monday.I can see a FP applied against the withdrawal component in my maturity option but it hasn’t arrived yet.2 -
I had three Regular Savers mature today with all having, at least some of the, proceeds due to land in a Nationwide Current account.TheWoodler said:

I transferred £300 shortly after 8 this morning. No message or notification like the above screenshots to inform me it wouldn't be accepted.SJMALBA said:

But no usual notification email to acknowledge the deposit.
As of time of writing this (shortly before 8pm), the £300 has been neither credited to the RS nor returned to me.£6000 in 20232
