  • It might be time to cash-in on the M&S monthly saver, as it seems there's no point in holding on to it until maturity. M&S are promising to pay the full interest (£44.50) as though the account were held for 12 months if the account is closed now, without the need to wait until maturity, or the pending closure of all current accounts in August. Details are in a recently updated MSE news article, and M&S confirmed this in a phone call this morning.

    Interest on the amount in the a/c now, or on the 12 months payments, ie incl. those that you don't pay in if closed now ??

    The latter - the situation with the M&S regular saver has been discussed at length on the thread on the banking board about the trigger event, i.e. the closure of the current accounts: https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/6247452/m-s-bank-closing-all-current-accounts/p1

    But when will they transfer the funds ?
    My balance is already nil at Monmouthshire.
    I hope it is not at 4.55 pm this afternoon.
    I need time to move it around.
