    According to Moneyfacts, Saffron Building Society will be launching their 12 Month Fixed Rate Members Regular Saver (issue 12), which will pay 3.00%.

    It is likely to be available from 25th October.  It is available to members who have had an existing relationship with Saffron Building Society for the past 12 months.  

    Holders of earlier issues of Saffron Members Regular Saver can apply via secure message or over the phone for their account to be product switched to the new issue.   

    (They use some money from your existing balance to cover the payment for this month and the remaining balance is sent to your nominated account).  You then just need to amend your standing order so that another 11 payments are scheduled.

    As with previous increases, can you just message them and get your current regular saver changed to the higher rate?


    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.

  • First Direct Regular Saver now showing as 3.60% for existing customers with an already open and active account.
    I’m sure that is an error as the website still shows 3.50%. I recollect an error such as this occurred a few months back and the app gets updated and it’s back to the original rate

    Maybe it's because October is one hour longer :o)
