Skipton Maturity Instructions

Has anyone had success inputting their maturity instructions online?  I'm just going round in circles.  I get to the final stage of withdrawing full maturity balance to the account I've selected then I get a pop up saying could this be a scam.  I press continue and it takes me back to the previous step of choosing the account and so it goes on.

    The have been several posts on the attached thread. I ended up phoning them but they did fix it in the end yesterday. Clearly though it has failed again today.

    No not working for me (have tried it again) can't get past the pop up about whether it could be a scam press continue and takes me back to the previous screen of choosing an account to transfer to.
  • Sorted mine yesterday without any issues.
  • I'm having the exact same issue, after the scam warning it just goes back a step and I cannot submit the maturity instructions.

    As will many people's. I can't remember how long the account was on offer but it wasn't that long so it follows most people will have an account maturing sometime in August/September.
    Give it a week or so to allow any kinks be ironed out leaves plenty of time to give maturity instructions.

    You see it on here many times, people getting all in a twizz because something doesn't happen NOW, patience is a virtue and usually results in less stress.

    I don't understand the rush! We're getting 3.50% till the maturity date, at which point you can just FP it.

    You should get an email 2-3 weeks before maturity inviting you to select an option. 

    But if you don't bother it just goes into their easy access Online Matured Funds Issue 9 A paying 0.90%, and you can withdraw whenever you want from there.

    I had my maturity email from Skipton this evening (my saver is due to mature on 17th August). I'll probably just let it mature into the variable rate easy access account and then withdraw the money.

    Mine is the 19th, I was hoping they might offer another regular saver.
    I will dump it in my Al Ryan 1.8% easy access saver, until a better longer rate turns up.
