Lloyds should be ok, Principality 6 month probably won't as it's a max deposit limit, dunno about othersSlinky said:Quick question about 13th payments, I've just realised that I've got several RS due to mature in January and standing orders which will go out on 2nd Jan.Which of these will be/not be accepted please?

Edit didn't realise you talking about so, I only do manual transfers, not sure if you can just cancel so easily when there's hardly any banking days atm1 -
Club Lloyds MS and Lloyds MS: no max balance specified so 13th payment should be okaySlinky said:Quick question about 13th payments, I've just realised that I've got several RS due to mature in January and standing orders which will go out on 2nd Jan.Which of these will be/not be accepted please?

Principality Xmas RS 2025: max balance is £1500 (12 X £125) so 13th payment will be rejected if you've reached the max
Progressive: don't know
Principality 6 month RS 4: max balance is £1200 (6 x £200) so 7th payment will be rejected if you have reached the max
Furness Xmas RS: no max specified1 -

If not the funds will be returned (in my experience on the sane day).Progressive. - not according to T&C.
Furness - should be accepted.2 -
If you have more than the permitted number of any issue of Principality, probably best not to draw attention to yourself by trying to pay in more than allowed balance into any particular account. Monetary gain negligible. Risk of a human taking a look over your account list cannot be ascertained but could be significant and possibly outweigh any benefit. YVMV.5

I made a mistake by paying an extra £200 into my principality as a 7th payment and it was accepted with interest paid. I didn’t realise I’d done it until it was in the account.jameseonline said:

Fair enough if it's a mistake. I wouldn't want to test the good will of Principality by overpaying knowingly in breach of the terms.Archerychick said:
