    Yes Badger came this morning, have sent off a form to pay direct into my bank account. Or you  can transfer into Easy Access Issue 27 paying 0.75%. Payment will be on the 2nd Nov. Further instructions  at Savings Operations, Virgin Money, Jubilee House, Gosforth, NE3 4PL. No phone number shown. Or you can visit  or phone your local store .
    p.s......my last Reg Saver. Most savings now in fixed 1 and 2 yr. Plus Premium Bonds.

    I have received my letter today.
    Proceeds will transfer to Easy access saver reward issue 27 paying a  variable interest rate of 0.75%. Transfer will take place on Monday 2 November and interest paid at current rate till then.

    The easy access account is only available to maturing regular saver customers.

  • While the letter is carefully worded I believe you can close the account early, based on the saving terms and conditions section 7.8
    https://www.thenottingham.com/~/media/files/savings/forms and documents/savings-terms-march-19-lit3117.pdf?la=en
    If we materially decrease an interest rate to your disadvantage, we will notify you in writing 14 days in advance of the change.
    You will be given 30 days from the date of this notification to close or switch your account without notice or penalty.
    We will define a decrease to an interest rate as ‘material’ if it reduces more than the Bank of England Base Rate

    So I've emailed to ask if my assumption is correct, and if so what the early closure process is. .
    Notts BS
    Any response from NBS please @bubieyehyeh
    Heard nothing so far, I will post when I hear unless someone else gets an answer first.

    Emailed them yesterday. Awaiting response... 
    I consider myself to be a male feminist. Is that allowed?

    0.75 not uncompetitive. Saves having to rush down the branch on maturity day!

    As the conversion is from a store account I'm guessing the VM Easy Access iss 27 won't be visible on line?

    Phoned today. I'm sending my passbook in with my request for a cheque in the post; the only alternative, or so I was told, to calling in a branch. The MOS checked with superiors that it's all there is. I'll set the closing date to maximise the interest. I've  cancelled the SO.
