    Skipton BS Online Bonus Saver issue 7 (feeder account) reducing from 1.2 to 0.65% on 17 March.
    Where was this announced? Can't see any customer emails/letter from Skipton as yet. My account has 'A' after the name so wonder if it's the same account.
    I think the A stands for Annual, referring to the frequency of interest payments.

    I too was amazed to discover I had an old account with YBS, with just £1 in. I think it came from a merger. Did Barnsley BS get taken over by YBS?

    Coventry

    This isn't quite right.
    Below is what Coventry actually say.

    Whether they enforce it is another matter:

    This is a limited issue account and you can only have one version of a Regular Saver at a time.

    I was told on telephone you could have more than one as long as they were different issue numbers

    'This is a limited issue account and you can only have one version of a Regular Saver at a time.'
    'This is a limited issue account and you can only have one [version of a] Regular Saver at a time.'
    There is a difference.
