Leeds have finally sorted the Regular Saver application form.
Re what is the minimum monthly payment - would £1 satisfy the below?What happens if I can’t make a monthly deposit?
With a Regular Saver account, you’ll be expected to make monthly deposits into your account. If you miss a deposit or can’t make a monthly payment, you could potentially see your interest rate reduced.
