Regular Savings Accounts: The Best Currently Available List!

Looks like The Vernon are keeping the on-line Regular Saver at 6.5%.

However it’s currently restricted to locals (local to Stockport.)

I only found out about this recently. I’m in the CW (Crewe) area which qualifies.

It’s an unusual account. After a year the balance gets transferred to an easy access account and a new Regular Saver automatically started. Since the Regular Saver is (supposedly) not even for existing members at the moment that rather suits me. Although need to see if that actually happens. 

Note over the years Vernon keep tweaking requirements. Sometimes they are strictly locals only. Usually they offer some dire fixed rate accounts to anyone. Sometimes they let anyone in - a few years back they offered an on-line easy access nationwide. It’s worth checking on them if you really fancy membership.

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?
