Zopa Smart Saver - boosted pots maturing over weekend / bank holidays no issue?

Quick and silly question, but if you went with a 95 day notice now and over next couple of days, I think they'll they'll 'mature' over Christmas.

Correct me if I wrong, I think this shouldn't be a problem, as those boosted pots will still convert into normal access pots on those days and earn interest?

    What's the question exactly, whether there will be delays to the pots maturing due to bank holidays?

    I'd expect all of this stuff is done automatically without human intervention, bank holidays should make no difference.

    Correct, the pots automatically switch to access pots. Earning the relevant interest from that day. 
  • Thanks both - yes, my question wasn't as clear it could be (not with it this morning).

    I also expect it to be fully automated, but wanted to double check what people may have experienced in past weekends / bank hols.
