    Thank you. Didn't know about the Monthly Saver at 5.25%. Now open :)
    Handy extra RS in addition to the Club Lloyds RS ;)

    Vernon BS Rate Reductions From 1/12/24:

    Online Regular Saver 6.5% NO CHANGE
    Locals only isn't it?
    On Moneyfacts it says existing customers as well, but cannot find any reference to that on Vernon's website. I think originally it was also available for existing customers, but perhaps Moneyfacts hasn't updated its website 
    I consider myself to be a male feminist. Is that allowed?

    Have you not had a Club Lloyds monthly saver in the last 12 months, because according to their t&c’s you cant reopen another one within a 12 months period.
    I've just closed my Club Lloyds RS which was due to mature next month by renewing the account to a Saver which transferred all monies and interest immediately. Brand new Club Lloyds RS @ 6.25% opened and funded within 5 minutes just now o:):D
    T&C's at lloyds are never enforced regarding account closure & reopening, with the exception of duplicate accounts which aren't allowed according to Lloyds T&C's.- strange but true :D

    Tenth Anniversary 10 Posts Combo Breaker
    Skipton BS Home Deposit Saver at 5.06% NLA

    Replaced by Issue 2 at 4.81%
    Skipton BS Home Deposit Saver Issue 2 at 4.81% (variable):

    The account T&Cs seem to indicate that you can't have Issue 2 if you already have Issue 1.

    You can only hold one Home Deposit Saver in your name at any one time (either a Home Deposit Saver or a Branch Home Deposit Saver). 

    I have a hunch that's intentional, but possibly it's just sloppy drafting. Would anyone care to kindly ask them?
    The Skipton system allows both Home Deposit  Issue 1 and Issue 2 to be open at the same time. Parked £1 in issue 2 to see what happens.

    It does say that, but they don't enforce it. Easy to close and reopen online.
    Thanks for the tip. Just renewed snd funded both my Club Lloyds savers

    If you log in and go to "Products" in the left hand pane you get the list of options of which the ORS is there. I opened it in June though. The product info does say the postcodes but IIRC it said the same when I opened it.

    I've just tried closing my 6 month regular saver in order to try to reopen one, but its still showing as open and the message I got when I requested closure was it should be actioned within 1 day.  I was in two minds as to whether to close it as it still had until the 24 December before it matured, not too hopeful it'll still be available by tomorrow.  Does anyone know if each of their closures have to be manually checked?
