Seems that MBS's manual admin processes are rather muddled. 

My letter (well, and the one for the mysterious D.J. Cross) state that I've read and understood three online documents - including the T&Cs.

I've found the staff there really friendly and helpful in the past, it's not their fault that the systems are woeful.

Yes, sadly it's indicative of staff being pushed too hard and being rushed to get too much done, and making the inevitable mistakes that come with that.

My signatory form (for the EA I opened the day before the regular savers launched) just arrived, but no return envelope and unless I'm being dense no instruction for return address. 

Is it just a case of going back to head office with a stamp?

They normally enclose a pre-paid envelope, so unfortunately, looks like a stamp needed.  Address on pre-paid envelope is, 13 John Frost Square, Newport, NP20 1PX

That's the address. Unfortunately its a prepaid envelope rather than freepost

I didn't get a pre-paid envelope so just sent it off with a stamp.

Neither did I, it's one from previous.

I applied for both Monmouthshire accounts and received two envelopes in the post today.

The one for the Regular Saver encloses a signature form and a prepaid envelope but no passbook.

The one for the Exclusive Saver encloses a passbook but no signature form or envelope. The letter still asks me to sign and return the enclosed 'Online Signatory Form', even though it is not enclosed.

Looks like these have all been sent out in a rush. At least both letters have my own name on them

No, that is not a Freepost address. It is the 2nd class Business Licence number to enable Royal Mail to charge Monmouthshire for the postage cost of all the prepaid envelopes. It is the barcode that will allow the letter through the postal system without a stamp or Freepost address.

Is the signature form of a form(!) that could be copied and annotated to make it applicable to the second account?
