Loughborough BS One Year Fixed Rate Monthly Saver
5% £500 per month, min £1 monthly pay in, no early access
Source - Moneyfacts
I think I’ll go for it, but not sure if will fund in full each month - I’m wary of no access accounts - hoping there is access permitted in Loughborough’s own Ts and Cs when they are released in the morning.

Saffron 9% @ £250pm would have been coooooool 😁2 -
A few questions about the Loughborough BS Limited Access MS and One Year Fixed Rate MS:
- If we stop depositing into either of these accounts, does anyone know what happens please? I am aware each have a minimum £1 monthly deposit, but cannot find the consequences of failing to fulfil this
- Do these (and the languishing 2.5%) run on calendar month, or on account month please? On the FRMS and 2.5RS, I can see 'one deposit per calendar month', so I am thinking the LAMS will also be calendar month?
- Does Loughborough allow faster payment withdrawals once the passbook is sent in, or is it cheque only (and possibly CHAPS)?

LoughboroughMy recollection is that any withdrawal is by cheque returned by post with the passbook. Alternately the passbook can be presented at their branches (or one agent) and a cheque will be provided. No facility for faster payments. I always credited the accounts on the first working day of the month by standing order.I no longer hold any accounts with LBS as there are much better regular savers out there with online facilities and faster payment withdrawal.2

On the SRBS adult accounts page, I noticed the RS has changed from saying availability ‘private individuals living in Staffordshire only’ to availability ‘private individuals’. I’ve verified this using the way back machine, and comparing what it said yesterday to what it says today. The summary box still references Staffordshire, as does the application process (yes/no question re residency in Staffordshire), but I’m wondering if perhaps they just need to be updated? Wishful thinking or have they opened the flood gates? I know it used to flick between the two before, but unsure if the application process was updated or not.
