Regular Savings Accounts: The Best Currently Available List!

Do withdrawals from Gatehouse usually arrive the day they are requested?

Re Gatehouse maturity

If anyone receives more information about the maturity options thing, can you let us know on here please? Saves us all having to ask them about it☺️

Phoned this morning ..... the option (online) should be under the Regular Saver Account + "Account Options" ..... but it's not there. CS checked and agreed that it's not there and said sorry, it will be fixed, but in the meanwhile it will mature into an Easy Access account!  Just delays things a bit, so not ideal.

This regular saver hasn't been Gatehouse's finest hour. After the 13th payment debacle to then find that we are directed to non-existent Maturity Options suggests a lack of care. Now whether this is Gatehouse's problem, or Newcastle Building Society's remains to be seen, but it's not the first time that I've experienced issues with the outsourced service at Wallsend...

My Cov BS loyalty RS matures on Thursday. 

There’s no way I can see of giving maturity instructions on the online portal, they’re not accepting them by private message, and I can’t find my grid card to phone up… 

If I let the account convert into an easy access saver (presumably overnight Thurs-Fri) will I get the money in to my nominated account on Friday if I make the withdrawal before business opens?

TIA

I checked the Gatehouse maturity options for this morning - no Regular Saver available.  When not logged-in, the Regular Saver option under Savings says this:

"We're sorry, our Regular Saver Account is currently under review. Why not view our Fixed Term, Easy Access, Cash ISA or Notice Accounts."

You do not need the card, just call them and answer a few questions. That's what I do.

Did you not receive/read the maturity instructions they sent you? There are no instructions to give, it's automated.

I’ve had an email that tells me that I’ve received a letter about my maturity options, however I’ve definitely not had it.

I have phoned up but they won’t take my instructions without the grid card (new one in post but don’t think it will arrive before the account matures)

I just rang them as like you I don't think I had the letter.
Can't remember what was agreed though 🤣

Zopa have just launched a 7.5% regular saver. I have posted more details on a new thread.

Edit. I see now that this account was launched several weeks ago with selective invitations during this period.

Launched over a month ago, must open a current account to be able to use and only open to invited users at this stage. Previously discussed here in depth.
