Bob2000 ... Another excellent question .... unfortunately I can't answer it as although the account now shows 5% (instead of 7% the RS had), it still says it's a regular saver with no means to transfer money out (online)!

  I try  my best.

What does other peoples letters from Gatehouse (online banking inbox) say.

The easy access account number begins with ERG?

Mine begins with REG, the account number didn't change.

My letter says ERG .... my account is still showing REG but at 5%

Edit ..... it also says you can add to the account ..... at the moment I wouldn't dare try as it still says REG. Maybe  I could either withdraw or add tomorrow depending on which way the wind is blowing

Re: GATEHOUE 

Is this 5% EA only available  if its morphed  from a mature  RS account  please?

I think that is the case.

They seem to be morphing the regular saver into an easy access @ 5%.

Account number is same as regular saver was apart from first 3 letters are now supposed to be ERG instead of REG, thats what i can make out from their message earlier. Unless they have made a mistake in the message and the ERG is supposed to read REG, wouldnt be surprised at that either.

I think ‘ERG’ is the noise someone from Gatehouse will make tomorrow if they realise they’ve accidentally created a market leading Easy Access account

I didn't get any letters, just emails saying that my account is due to mature, no details. 

Yes, it's best to play by the ear

I got a "Account has matured" email saying there is an online secure message. Once logged in, the secure message contained an attached letter. It's all a bit haphazard (at least they are consistent!) with the letter saying ERG but the account still showing REG. I hope it will sort itself out tomorrow.

I was able to open the Issue 2 RS at 5.30% on 3/11/24 when it was available. I wasn't sure if it was in the rules to have two RSs but my first deposit is still there and I'll be making another on Monday. I've not been advised of any change in the interest rate - so this is another mystery yet to unravel. Whether there is to be a new RS is 'under review' according to the website.

I have an easy access account with them and it begins with EAA not ERG.

Usual drill:

Leeds BS Regular Saver (Issue 58) to go NLA within hours and replaced by Issue 59 with a new maturity date of 1/12/26, this time at 4.95% to match the reduced rate that comes into effect on on most of their other regular savers on 24/12/24
