I'm a day or so behind and in the last couple of hours have had the Profit Added and the reference has now changed.
Interestingly the bank transfer checks (from Nationwide) identified that the REG type of account no longer existed (but the ERG did).
So I'll now be depositing a wedge to Gatehouse.
Working out very well this so far as at 5% it'll be by far my best EA account. Hopefully, of those that are profiting from this, some of those being extremely critical earlier in this thread about them might return and balance out their previous posts.2 -

Aldermore, BoS, Coventry, Gatehouse, Halifax, Lloyds, Melton, Newcastle, Nottingham, Nationwide, Principality, TSB, YBS.
Monday
Co-op, Hanley, Loughborough, Mansfield, MHBS, MonBS, Progressive, Saffron, Skipton, VM, RBS, Natwest.
Does anyone know about HSBC, FD, Chorley or SRBS?
Just to note, deposits I’ve made into the following institutions’ regular savers today are showing dated as 2nd December:
Halifax
BOS
Lloyds
NationwideWhat this means for interest, I don’t know.
I’ve also made payments into Principality, but I’ve been unable to check when those have been dated yet.3 -
Flex Regular Saver Issue 2
As above I made a faster payment today, but its dated 2nd December.- I thought transactions done on non-working days do get acted as soon as possible and start earning interest that same day, but I'm now questioning that.
Also, can I make a 13th month payment on a Flex Regular Saver Issue 2 account?
TIA

Four hours after depositing a wedge into this newly matured account (on a Sunday) I've got the SMS confirming it's arrived and it's showing in the App

Bravo Gatehouse 👏
