When trying to open a Leeds Regular Saver, the form (and subsequent email confirmation) refer to it as an E-Saver - has something gone wrong their end or will it morph into the correct account tomorrow?

You have clicked on and requested the E-Saver easy access deposit account. You need to click on their regular saver account. It is on their home page; big box saying regular savings. 
You will, however, need the E-Saver to withdraw any funds from the Regular Saver.

I tried it twice and the Regular Saver links all go to the E-Saver application form. 

Ditto - existing customer, applied for reg saver and it gave me an e-saver. They have a problem with the website.

Their mortgage rate is going up by 0.5% to 7.99% so yet another increase in their margins!

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.

I checked with them last week and although the minimum initial payment is £100, you can reduce to £1 thereafter.

The withdrawn three year one is showing as being increased from 2.7% to 3.2% on 1/3/23.

It's already at 3.2%

Wonder what the real rate will be
