  • Furness RS5 now showing as 4.5% on website. It`s good that you can make one withdrawal without penalty.

    Furness BS Regular Saver Issue 5 from 4.3% -> 4.5% effective 01/03/2023 - subject to change, as not published yet.

    Edit: N.B. Staff Member not 100% sure if on 1st, but soon they’ve been told - they think it is 1st

    Edit 2: Now confirmed on website
    Mine still showing as 4.3% online, but since you can close without penalty I guess if they don't update existing ones we can all just close it and open new ones!

    Existing ones are supposed to be updated tomorrow I believe - they’ve uploaded the new rates on the website list in preparation for tomorrow. It should show on the accounts some time tomorrow

    Re Bath BS 16-25 Regular Saver - if you go to the details tab, does anyone else still see 5.95% please? I believe this should've increased to 6.35% on 1st of February, and to 6.75% with effect letter today, but it seems not to have changed. I've sent them a message about it to get it checked, and potentially recalculated, but I was just curious to see if anyone else has found this.

    EDIT: They confirmed it is now fixed, and should show correctly from tomorrow. Very impressed how quickly they dealt with it. Sounds like the system was calculating interest correctly and on the right rate, but it was just displaying wrong

    The withdrawn three year one is showing as being increased from 2.7% to 3.2% on 1/3/23.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
    The three year is now showing on my account as 3.4.

    Obviously a typo in their pdf for closed accounts

    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?
    Not working for me either, I start to fill in the form but it states E-saver at the top....

    Well you can slap me round the face with a wet fish and call me Susan... I am one of 917 prize winners who won £250.
    I've been paying in £50 every month since last August but because my standing order goes out the 28th every month my payment didn't go in time for the February draw!!!

    Gutted, now changed my standing order to the 1st :(
