Co-op saver

I opened it in April but only have £1065 in it, I know you can put £250 a month in but can I top it up to £3000 to make up for the months I didn't max it out?

'Fraid not, T&Cs say a max of £250 can be deposited in any calendar month.

Crazy how we find out about these via this forum before the provider itself!

Thanks for this. Cannot locate the CBS Sunny Day Saver RS anywhere in that document, so I assume that will remain at 6.25% then

Thinking of applying for Melton Regular Saver 6.

Dont normally go for postal operated accounts.

Wasn't going to send id docs on first application attempt, usually i get ID electronically for bank/bs applications.

Do they typically look for verified ID?

I got ID electronically, didn't have to send anything.

Do monthly payments need to be by post too?

No, you can send in by Faster Payment. You can also provide a nominated account and withdraw to that account.

Only application is by post.

Move quickly if you want the account, I was under the impression it'd already have been made NLA by now.

I've just phoned them and they've said the Sunny Day Saver, Mortgage RS, FHS Issue 2 and RS Issue 6 shall be unaffected by the current round of rate cuts so are holding their rates for now.

I'll phone them again when I get home to act as a double check.

Additionally it seems the Leeds BS RS Issue 55 is indeed still currently at 5.25%, unlike all other issues of their regular saver. I guessed the application link to it over the weekend and funded it to confirm the rate and it does show as 5.25% still.

I'll update the list of regular saver rate decreases later today.

GetRichOrDieSaving

Given the clear downward trend of rates and cuts as expected with the BOE reductions, do people think that RS will drop below 5%?
