    Issue 33 Principality BS 5.50%! MoneyFacts
    My initial deposit still hasn't shown up yet but I've been able to move £1 in from my double access account and the 5.5% now shows so for those who opened the account early it appears you can still fund it.
    This can be opened in addition to an existing Issue 32 4.5% account?
    Yes, it can.
    Time to close the 4.5% one then. Those funds go into my Flexi cash isa which is way better net of tax.

    Can someone with experience with Principality please confirm how long it typically takes for funds to be transferred back to your main current account upon account closure? I'm considering drip feeding part of my emergency funds into the latest issue.
    Depending on time of day request is made its usually same day, very worst case scenario first thing following day.

    It's not showing on their website so far......perhaps  it will be made available sometime later  today.

    Online now (Edit: Sort of)

    Well, actually, issue 33 is listed, however, the link still goes to 32 ????

    IIRC, if the closure is processed and transfer processed by 15:30, same working day. If after that, or on non working day, next working day.

    Yep, seems that the application process is still linked to issue 32 so won't allow me to open it (as I already have 32)

    yep, the apply link at the bottom of the product page still uses the old product ID, so don't apply till it's something other than 6077 in the link (and the issue 33 T&C declaration shows)

    Opened the Principality Issue 33 on the 9th (but didn't fund it after the reported issues) so waited until this morning, funded it via a Faster Payment and it's now fully open.

    My goodness, Principality is getting quick! Usually it takes 2 hours for a deposit to reflect, but this time 15 minutes! Perhaps I timed it perfectly with a batch processing slot?
