The application form for the YBS Loyalty Regular Saver can be downloaded from the website.
Not sure if I'm allowed to post a link here though?

I wonder what is meant by an active account? I have had an account with £1 in for several years, nothing in or out apart from 1p interest, then last October I opened another one with YBS.

AFAICS you can request an application pack on their webby, but I can't see any download option. Happy to be corrected.

As long as you haven't closed that account with £1 in you should be alright. Can take an age for building society savings accounts with no fixed term or funding requirement to be declared inactive.

I wonder if I am eligible. I am already a member, with branch RS 1,2,3.
Before I closed these accounts, I opened Internet saver plus issue 7 in September 2020.

According to the phone call I just received from my local branch, you are NOT eligible.  I am in a similar position, continuous membership since 2017, but my only active account is less than a year old.  They told me I cannot open the new account.

Check in your closed accounts and if there is no break in membership as you opened new account whilst another was still open you should qualify.  Send them a message whilst you are logged in if you find they have made a mistake

You can post a  link, sort of. Just leave a blank after the fullstops so the software doesn't recognise it as a link. We can handle such pseudo links 
Thanks for posting it

Opt for a telephone appointment, even tho it take 40mins, it's better than wait for post, fill it in, walk to postbox, wait for passbook. (And potential have to pay 2nd class postage if no free postage)

Plus get it open in Feb and u can pay another £500 on 1st march

My bad just spotted this

• You must have an active, open account (Savings or Mortgage) with Yorkshire Building Society or Chelsea Building Society or a SharePlans account that has been OPENED on or before the 1st January 2020, as either Main Holder, Other Holder or Trustee to be eligible for the Loyalty Regular Saver account. Attorneys on an existing accounts will not be eligible.
