Did the same myself. Closed my Principality 6 Month Saver, due to mature next month, and opened a new one within about 90 mins.OneUser1 said:I took the risk and closed my Principality 6 Month and - this was the risk - I have been able to open a new 6 Month.

Instructed a closure at 10pm last night, funds in my account at 10am and new account opened within minutes!1 -
Did you really need to be worrying about the approx £7 extra interest thst you would have missed out on if you couldn’t reopen it and had to put or leave your money in an EA account.OneUser1 said:I took the risk and closed my Principality 6 Month and - this was the risk - I have been able to open a new 6 Month.

Principality 6 Month RS.
I closed my account at about 1pm today 7th Nov, will I have to wait until tomorrow to re open a new account. It's now 4pm and it wont let me open a new account yet.I choose the rooms that I live in with care,

I closed mine about 15.20. Tried to open one immediately, but coming up with I've already opened my maximum available. Starting to get worried that perhaps I should have left it alone, it let me open a new one at 15.50, half an hour after I closed it.trickydicky14 said:Principality 6 Month RS.

Suspect I'll have to wait until tomorrow for the money, though.I consider myself to be a male feminist. Is that allowed?2 -
