Now seems to be NLA - confirmed - "This account has been extremely popular and we’re no longer accepting new applications."

I know it’s immaterial now that charter savings bank EA issue 75 has become NLA, but do they allow a direct transfer from an older EA account to the new issue , or must you withdraw to your external nominated account and then fund the new EA account via the nominated account?

Thank You.

When you have opened a new Charter EA there is a process whereby you can 'close and transfer' an existing Charter EA with the funds (capital plus interest accrued to date) going directly into the new account.

Spring - Special Edition Easy Saver (App) - Easy Access. @ 4.3% annual (v) / 4.22% monthly (v). Interest calculated daily and paid monthly £1,000 minimum opening - max £20K.

EDIT: Interestingly, Moneyfacts had the min deposit @ £1,000 when launched this morning - now changed to £10. Even better and definately open to all @ £10 min deposit 🤗.

I did have some issues with the Spring / Paragon APP this evening after sign-up. Mainly due to having to accepting cookies at App launch and through the link your bank account process, which crashed, but completed. I simply cleaned out the browsing history cookies on my phone iSOs and then rebooted my phone - Works like a dream now and I've found that you can divide the Special Edition Easy Saver into savings pots 🤗.

Used to have a Spring account but the app always took forever to open and that was if you were lucky. They must have lost a lot of customers because of this issue. Not a bad offer but would not trust having money with them again due to unreliable app access.

@soulsaver - note that the minimum opening balance is £10 not £1,000 😀

I can't say that I have ever had an issue with the app on my phone - this will be a useful account for me to open and worth mentioning that deposits and withdrawals have always been instant for me.

Why is no one dazzling / jumping off the page on the easy access when yields are rising and BoE forecasts adjusting accordingly?

Come on Skipton, save all that Members Bonus Saver money (albeit £5k pp max) from exiting… you know you want to…

In my experience there is a delay of an hour or more before your new account will show.

I couldn't see a way to open the new account and close the old one and transfer funds at the same time. I forgot to do the transfer until reading this..... doh.
