Is there any way to refresh the account so that it pays interest on a specific date?

@SFCooper , yes I did it with all of mine so they all pay interest on the same day, easier to skim the interest of on just one day a month than multiple days. If the SDS is the current issue then upgrade it/them to a Simple Saver and then upgrade straight back to a SDS. It works as I did it with both mine and hubby’s. Hope this helps 😊

Tried. All are definitely the same but it’s only letting convert a few of them to SD’s.

Had a great response from FA regarding the inability to set up an alternative 2SV if your SIM is for whatever reason not available when you login.

Very impressed with the speed of their response and recognition of it being a “fantastic point” and the need for an alternative recovery option.

Since text message OTPs are currently our only two-factor authentication method, you would need to reach out to us directly via live chat or phone call if you lost your phone and SIM card. Our team would then be able to assist you with your account balance/provide reassurance whilst you're waiting for a new sim card.
 
That is a fantastic point, so I will certainly pass this feedback along to our team to highlight the need for alternative recovery options in the future.

Having changed my mobile number a year ago, only one financial institution I used, out of almost 30, was unable to change it on my account: - Sumup - I'm no longer a customer of theirs. I don't recommend changing your mobile number.

Always good fun if you live in a mobile not-spot too! 😉
