It was my 3rd payment that went successfully in the end into my YBS regular saver. I thought because of the Bank Holiday my refund from my YBS internet saver would be delayed but it arrived in my current account this morning.

That appears to be very good news for you, when all's said and done. You obviously will be very relieved!

Re the Nationwide Start to Save account - I have a note to withdraw on 22/10/21 as that is when the last draw is, but considering it is still paying 1% is there a specific date when the account matures or something?

Leek United BS has now acted to restrict new applications to its RS product (1.10% variable, 12 month term, max £1000 per month). The society's website now says that to be eligible to apply for this account, you must be either:

• an existing customer who has continuously held a Leek United Building Society product for a minimum of 12 months; or
• a new customer resident in the following postcode areas:
  • CW – Cheshire
  • SK – Cheshire
  • DE – Derbyshire
  • TF – Shropshire
  • ST – Staffordshire
  • WS15 – Staffordshire

Re above: slightly confusingly called  Flexible Saver Account | Leek United
Happy to be corrected, but postal or branch only - and  appears can't be managed on line?

Correct:  The Leek is one of five building societies that I use which lack any kind of online access for RS. The others being Scottish BS, Nottingham BS, Loughborough BS and the Stafford Railway BS.  Although at least the Leek and Stafford have recently promised to rectify this in 2021.  

Hanley have been struggling for months too.

Stafford Railway BS recently said they are testing an online facility, so hopefully we will see that in 2021.

Scottish BS? I can access my Regular Saver with them online.
