    Zopa have just launchaed a 7her. I have posted more details on a new thread.
    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.
    Okay thanks. I guess it must be a staggered invite as I got the email earlier today and hadn't heard about it before now.

    This thread grows at such pace that easy to see why you wouldn't have spotted previous discussion about it. Hopefully open to all soon- I keep checking my emails in hope!!!

    Zopa have just launched a 7.5% regular saver. I have posted more details on a new thread.
    Opened mine last week 
    I consider myself to be a male feminist. Is that allowed?

    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.
    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."

    Yes, Gatehouse CS also confirmed that they are not offering a new RS at the moment. I forgot to say earlier that they would not accept verbal Maturity instructions, it needs to be in writing and with a "wet" signature, not email! As someone said earlier .... not their finest hour!

    Perhaps they are reviewing the benefits of offering RS product.  It's a new venture for Gatehouse, they have only offered two issues so far and probably now evaluating their performance to see if it is viable to offer a third one.

    It wouldn't be surprising if people openly shouting on here seeking compensation (not just the lost pence) on the 'extra payment' has influenced Gatehouse to have a rethink whether it's worth the time and effort.

    Wouldn't be a first time the MSE massive have shot themselves in the foot. And it won't be the last
