Just applied for their very uncompetitive easy saver just in case they make the accounts only available to those having been a customer before the product launched as I am sure they will get swamped with applications again. Tried to avoid them after their Christmas Saver chaos last Christmas.

Sadly, they are still one of those with IT from the past decade and the account isn't opened straight away and they have to send stuff by snail mail. Going on holiday on Friday for 2.5 weeks won't help either

How did your application go? I applied after cob yesterday but haven’t heard anything as yet, again applied for the easy saver to have an account. Manual ID checks?

Application went through yesterday afternoon. OH applied in the evening for the same account. We both did not hear anything back. No email no text, as it never happened.

Both are online and showing on the overview page: https://www.monbs.com/savings/personal-savings-accounts-general-savings/



EDIT: Applied for both accounts now. The terms on the Exclusive Reg Saver are a bit vague imho. Let's see if they honour it with me having applied yesterday for an Easy Saver or not.

The lack of email confirmation (only a screen confirmation).and inability to apply online as a logged on existing customer with pre populated fields is always a pain

Interesting that their Regular Saver page says: Interest Rate AER / Gross - Fixed:  7.00% and the Exclusive Regular Saver says: Interest Rate AER / Gross - Fixed:  8.00% on their headlines, but all other references are to this rate being variable (in the details, in the savings summary page, etc.)

No option to apply online now, just Branch/Agency. Farcical.

I've applied for the 8% one.  The 7% one is currently unavailable.  Hopefully they can open it back up again soon.  I'm assuming we can have both as I can't find anything in the T&Cs.
