Re Newcastle BSoc Fixed Regular Saver
I had an appointment this morning to open issue 2 already holding issue 1 of the account.
No dice
You can only have a grand total of one Fixed Regular Saver account across all issues at any one time.

There's a new RS out from TSB today. The interest rate is 2.00% fixed, but the max monthly contribution is only £125.

TSB monthly saver, max £125 @ 2%
Is this new news?
First time I have seen it.
What happens if you have one currently running at only 1%.

You cannot hold more than one monthly saver. I guess TSB need some new customers as well as new money.

ps. Their example shows interest of £14, although paying in on the first of the month should get you £16.

I have not taken out new HSBC, First Direct or Coventry RS accounts in the hope of an increase in the rate.

Apologies if already posted, could not locate it on the front page.

1.5% on £1,500 per month, but note balance will need to be in excess of £7,500 to earn the full interest rate.

It was posted but forgotten about. I posted it again in another thread as well. It is a good account. 

Remember you are not eligible for this account if you are a home owner or have owned a home previously. 

I am aware of that, however no check has been made. I don't own a home. (this is in regards to the principality building society home saver account.

Wow that TSB account above brings £14 in total! of interest!

T&C say you can close an account at any time, so if I closed my current RS I could then open a new one?
The thing is, would I get interest on the six months the old one has been running?

From the terms on TSB’s website:

• If you close your Monthly Saver before the end of the 12 month term, you won't be able to open another account before the first anniversary of this account

This term was there on the old version too.

Please note - you need to have a TSB current account to apply for a Monthly Saver
