I see Virgin Money have a new issue of their Home Buying Coach Regular Saver, which now runs until 20th Feb 2022 and is still at 1.75% (£250/mth max). It’s associated with the Virgin Home Buying Coach app but anyone can download this and they don’t necessarily have to be buying a house....

Thanks!  If I'm not mistaken, one isn't allowed to hold more than one VM Home Buying Coach RS at the same time. But would be interested to hear if that turns out not to be the case, or if anyone manages to get both.

Edited.

It seems the same set up as before, you need to register for the app and then it gives you a link to the application page.

Can certainly open and fund 2, since they dont have a Regular E-saver currently on sale they're not going to be able to change it to that (as per T&C) unless release a new issue in next day or so.

I have the original Virgin Coach regular saver without downloading the app.

The terms say no to both of these, I deleted the app as well after I opened the account. Nothing happened to the account. To open two accounts? they allow (as i nothing happens) this as well?

I've just opened my second one via the link given above.  Interestingly VM call it HBC regular saver 3 - must have missed number two!

EDIT - and funded, and showing.

OK Fingerbobs - you persuaded myself and OH to open the Dudley one year regular saver issue 5 using the online forms. How do you make the deposit? Usually with postal applications you send in a cheque payable to yourself but there is no mention of this on the form.

Phoned up today, first deposits and subsequent SO`s by online payments once account accepted and opened so no cheques needed. ID and address verification OK - used current tax year HMRC code letters and State pension letters (no copys) so no endorsing by professionals needed. Combined 2 applications using online forms for myself and OH, making it more productive for time spent. Thanks Fingerbobs - Fingerscrossed!

They made this announcement 

https://www.virginmoneyukplc.com/newsroom/news-and-releases/2020/virgin-money-launches-new-exclusive-savings-account-for-home-buying-coach-app-customers

Looks like it was called issue 2 for some unknown reason and no idea whether a issue 1 ever existed
