Hi
Due for renewal mid July - 1.50% for the year - should I renew or cash in?

    ..If they were mine I would renew...unless you need the money

    Rather than starting a new thread with the same name, I will add below, I hope that's okay by all...
    I got messages today from NS&I (text and email) saying that my account has matured, and sure enough it has gone from the NS&I online account, the balance is zero. This has been timestamped for early this morning. However it hasn't arrived in my chosen account. Is this normal behaviour? I expect it will arrive in my account tomorrow, but would be comforted by confirmation from others' experiences.

    I don't think NSI systems are the smartest (fastest). It will take at least a day.
