If it was 2.75% you'd have to factor in the long queue of money saving experts clogging the streets of Chorley.

Is there any more mileage in Chorley    You could have travelled there during your posts

There's always more mileage in Chorley.

Yes, I'm labouring the point. It's interesting, to me at least, that some people are perplexed that borrowers are unwilling to pay more interest whilst valuing their own time & efforts at close to zero.

If I may so as someone who is quite new to this forum, I think this Regular Saving thread is one of the very best and most useful threads in the entire Savings and Investments section! It has certainly helped me very significantly in recent days. Thank you very much to everyone who contributes to it, especially the original poster who clearly gives a lot of time and effort to it on a very regular basis!

I tend to check it daily now!

I used to subscribe to this thread, as it contained useful new information.  The thread has been ruined by for too many people using it for irrelevant chit chat.  The last 18 posts - the ones made since SS2's weekly update - contain no new information about regular savers.

If you really appreciate this thread and SS2's hard work in maintaining the first few posts, then please show your appreciation by keeping the thread clear of irrelevant chit chat.  If every post contains useful new information, then the thread is worth subscribing to.  Currently, it isn't.

I have complete sympathy for this.

There gets to a point after a few posts where maybe etiquette should dictate that a new thread is created to discuss a specific issue.

It might also help identify which RS people are talking about as it's a struggle when the institution isn't mentioned in people's posts.

Especially when the thread descends, once again, into just chit (not even chit chat).

SS has repeatedly said that they do not mind but wow there is some drivel in here.

Puts tin hat on.

Anyone got a take on the time taken for an HSBC Regular to be visible and first payment taken?  Application accepted 0900 18th Nov - and still no action.  Anyone managed to confirm that the rate will be that applicable on the 18th?

Chat service useless - "you'll have to call this number", number doesn't answer.  [ Ed: - So what's new. ... ]

HSBC have a notice on their site asking people to contact them by 'phone only if it's urgent. Maybe people are heeding this and their lines aren't clogged with people urgently trying to find out if they're getting £16.23 in interest for the year or the jackpot of £44.50. Or maybe not....
