Closing and re-applying for accounts to move interest dates and/or extend term

Anyone closed and re-applied for Skipton Building Society Member Bonus Saver (currently 5.5% up to £3000)? If so, how soon after closing were you able to successfully re-apply? I haven’t used it apart from initial £1 but it would be of use to me this coming year if I could push the interest to 2025/26 tax year.

Same question for Yorkshire Building Society Regular e-Saver (currently 5.25%) and Loyalty Regular e-Saver (currently 5.75%)? Again only have £1 in each but might be useful to me if tax could be pushed back.

Thanks in advance for any responses.

I shall be following this thread with interest. With fewer 6%+ Regular Savers about now, I will be wanting to see if I can keep 2025/6 interest below the PSA (no chance for 2024/5!)

Why not just phone them and ask?
