By "no" I did, of course, mean "yes"..My interpretation would be yes.

Thus if the interest rate was reduced you'd be able to close the account without penalty within 30 days of being notified of the decrease.
Missed the override clause in the General T&Cs. Thanks @Bridlington1.I choose the rooms that I live in with care,
The windows are small and the walls almost bare,
There's only one bed and there's only one prayer;
I listen all night for your step on the stair.1 -
My Nationwide Flex RS has just matured. I tried to open the current one but the system tells me I can't because I already have a RS.
Any idea how long it will take to sort itself out?0 -
Apologies if this has been announced already. It's the same RS that a lot of us opened in September (ending 30/11/2025), but with a new ending date, same interest (6%) fixed

According to their website the RS must be opened in branch, yes, at least for now. It is worth keeping an eye, anyway, because it is still a good fixed 6% lasting 15 monthscheckly said:

Much like the previous version, the account is available to apply for online if you have online access.francoghezzi said:

Don't think they've quite finished the web page yet"Replace this text with description for product named Fixed Term Regular Saver (31.03.2026) (1YR02)."
Given the 2 account restrictions, wonder if it's worth opening a second and fund at the minimum (£10/mth) while funding the first at £240, or some other combination?3 -
The other way round of course. I prefer getting the 6% for 15 months (£18 interest, give or take) instead of 11 months (£13.75 interest give or take) left if you opened the first Rs in September. I would defo go for £240 in the new one and 10 in the old. Just remember that you probably already deposited for December so worth doing it starting January so as not to go over the £250 limit for this monthflaneurs_lobster said:

The other consideration would be that 2 is the maximum they allow, so might it be worth spreading the maturity dates further apart than just three months (if they continue offering these accounts at intervals.) I figure they are unlikely to drop the rate without further downward movement in the base rate.0
