    I don't know if reported already but the Darlington Building Society 'Special Occasions Saver' regular savings account is now 1.4% (up from 1.25%).

    Same t&c's as before, max 3 accounts and £250 month per account.

    Green Regular Saver also upto 1% and possible increase in the young saver rates (I don't know what these were previously).





    Am i right in thinking that you have to be local to Darlington to get these accounts?
    Not really according to this
    Either the existing members or those in local area will qualify.



    Doesn't seem to be the same restrictions on opening an easy access account (https://www.darlington.co.uk/savings-account/instant-access-account/), so perhaps open one of those first by post then open a RS as an "existing customer"?




    Re Darlington

    That's what I did last year & I live in London.  They make you jump through a few hoops to get the EA account but otherwise there wasn't any problems..

    Does that apply to accounts already open, I hope so as I have 3 opened over the past 2 months.


    I choose the rooms that I live in with care,
    The windows are small and the walls almost bare,
    There's only one bed and there's only one prayer;
    I listen all night for your step on the stair.

    Yes, sorry, it's a legacy account. I have two, one from 2016 (Simple RS) and one from 2017 (opened as an existing customer RS at that time), The accounts both became "Regular Saver Local" accounts (I'm not local) in a 2018 revamp, not sure when later withdrawn. I can save up to £500 pcm in each.
