    Mine ended 30th April this year. Got the same info that I could pay in again in May, but it is a glitch.The account was closed automatically on 1st May, so you won't get the chance to deposit after the end date. Got the £600 interest payment 9th May. Also incase you don't know, once you have paid in the full £2400, you can withdraw all of it before the end date. Then put it in another savings account to get an extra few weeks interest and still get paid £600. This only works if you withdraw the £2400 and DO NOT close the account. It will close automatically after the end date.
