Shawbrook Bank 1 yr fixed rate 1.55%

Opened one yesterday and noticed today that it`s been withdrawn and replaced by a 1.49% one.
I haven`t had time to fund it yet because of the weekend.
DAK how long I`ve got to get some money into it?

    I`ve sent a secure message but I don`t expect an answer until Monday.
    I`ve searched the T&C but can`t find anything except what you have said about not adding after it`s withdrawn.
    I wouldn`t send the full amount anyway until I was certain it all went through OK.
    Might have to go for the 1.49%.

    Just looking through frequency asked questions 
    1. Can I make more than one deposit?

    Yes, please ensure that the product is still open for funding as the credit will be returned if the product was no longer available. You can check if the product is still available by visiting our website (available products)

    7 days after it is withdrawn to fund account according to their CS on Friday (before they withdrew it)... I know is NOT shown on the blurb so... guess you'll be in the queue with me asking for confirmation. 
    However I do have the fallback that I also opened a 1.55% 1 year fix with Ford money, and still have a few days grace to fund it - so if SB isn't still taking my deposit at 1.55% it'll be going to Ford and a complaint going to SB..

    I`ll let you know what they say via secure message on Monday.
    At least I`ll have it in black and white if there`s a hitch.

    Good news (and good service) - They responded to a previous message today and updated the ac balance.  I reckoned they must be working so I asked and  in a secure message today timed at 14.25: 
    "Dear SS
    You have to 31st March to add funds to your 1 year fixed rate bond."
    It doesn't allow me to copy & paste.. but you could try them for your own peace of mind.
