Nationwide Building Society are launching a new regular saver, called 'Flex Regular Saver (Issue 2)', paying 8.00%

• Deposit up to £200 per month
• The account is available to new and existing Nationwide current account customers
• You can make up to 3 penalty-free withdrawals
• It reverts into an instant access savings account after 12 months
• The account can be opened and managed online or via Nationwide's mobile app

It should appear amongst their list of accounts once launched.

Would be nice if they would offer a switch bonus again. One of the very few I haven't used for a switch incentive. 

Edit: Just googled when the last offer was and BOOM, they also launched a new offer for £200.

Lost track of when my last switch offer into Nwide was but just searched my inbox and had a switch complete in late August 2021 so ineligible for this one unfortunately.

Just a note on the Nationwide Flex Regular Saver, from the product T&Cs. The maximum you can make is £104 at the end of 12 months* (annual interest only). It is fixed term, variable rate. The maximum deposit is £200 per calendar month.

* if interest rate does not rise above 8%

Most of the recent ones with good rates of 7% or 8% have been variable which makes it hard to predict the ultimate interest when the rates start to drop.

Was considering ditching Club Lloyds MS but it’s fixed. At the moment I’ll pay 40% on that which makes my ISA better

Tried to apply, but want business name and address.
Will need to call first I think.
As a carer I don’t have either.

Just a thought, maybe a silly one, but would it work if you put your own address in?

For those who opened the Coventry BS First Home Saver (the original one) on launch date (22 September 2021) (currently paying 5.60% variable) today is the annual interest payment date. Interest not showing yet, perhaps later today/overnight,

The account has one more year to run (it was for 3 years).

Have now successfully applied for Nationwide Flex Regular Saver 2 and transferred £200 into it.

It was a bit of a laborious process and I was doing this in internet banking as an existing customer.

It took about 2 minutes as an existing member through the App so don't know why Internet banking would be any different or laborious!
