    Was  there a Virgin Coach Issue 2?
    Yes. But none here have seen an Issue 1.
  • I have the first Virgin Coach, and opened and funded a second one (Issue 3) Yesterday.
    Maybe there will be another along in 2 months time like the usual Virgin RS pattern.
    Every 2 months, that would be nice!
    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.

    If the one you have matures on 20 December 2021, it is issue 2.

    I can’t find any KPI document for issue 1 so I’m assuming VM just can’t count, but it was pointed out on this thread in November about the missing issue 1:

    Online banking just says "Home Buying Coach Regular Saver" for the original one but the T&Cs it came with say it's Issue 2.

    Are you not worried about only one account allowed?
    At the end of the day they will just downgrade one of the accounts, or close one of them, or close both. But given how lax they are about the app I would be surprised if the rule was enforced.

    Those who tried to open the Principality issue 24 today when the website was 'broken' got a message saying that they already held issue 23 so couldn't proceed. (See earlier posts from this morning).  You'd hope that VM would have the same system in place if they wanted.

    We can just wait and see. 
  • My second Virgin Coach is open and showing funded  and Principality Reg Issue 24 is open and funded so maybe there was a computer glitch when others applied. I was logged into my accounts for both applications

  • Maturity for mine  one  Maturity date 20 December 2021  and the other Maturity date 20 February 2022
    "Look after your pennies and your pounds will look after themselves"
  • You only need one app my other half is too busy with other things so I manage the app and you can log in with our different ids

    It's incredibly difficult to know who/which account you are replying to when you don't use the 'quote' function whilst multiple parallel discussions are ongoing.
