    I've currently got 9 regular savers with Principality BS and depending what rate their 6 Month RS Issue 2 shall be I may choose to make it a nice round 10 before too long.
    This got me to wondering .. I know some forum members have a few RS accounts, is 9 or 10 close to the maximum or record that anyone has ?
    If you mean with one bank maybe but overall?

    Nowhere near!

    Overall…….

    Just noticed the Xmas payment went to an account which I have already closed.... 

    I already have their issue 34, can I open issue 35 as well?
    Yes you can. Principality BS allow you to hold one of each issue of their regular savers

    I've currently got 9 regular savers with Principality BS and depending what rate their 6 Month RS Issue 2 shall be I may choose to make it a nice round 10 before too long.

    Regarding Issue 34 & 35, which Principality RS ar you referring to please?

    what about Leeds bs rs ? I already got i55, can I have the latest issue ?
    No, with the Leeds BS you are only allowed one issue at a time
    I have two, 50 and 55.
    The t&C's seem not to allow this....You are only allowed one account per customer including joint accounts. You may only hold one Leeds Building Society Regular Saver product at a time. If a second Regular Saver account is opened all the money in the second account will be transferred to the current instant access account available to new customers.

    I suspect this may not apply to holding multiple issues. Both my accounts show as Regular Savers.

    As anticipated Principality BS 6 Month Regular Saver at 8% has disappeared from moneyfacts so shall go NLS this morning. 

    To be replaced by 6 Month Regular Saver (Issue 2) at the same rate of 8%.

    For those who wish to apply for the account now. See:
    https://online.principality.co.uk/OriginationsUI/Step1?ProductCode=6083&ProductType=RegularSaver
    Can you hold both at same time?

    Whilst we can't yet say for certain till the full Ts&Cs emerge, their previous regular savers have allowed you to hold one of each issue so I can't see this account being any different.

    I now hold both issues with funds on their way to Issue 2.

    Yep, seems to allow both issues to be held. I'm wondering what the reason was for moving to a new issue?
