So, with it being a public holiday on the 1st, is there any point in me doing any transfers  into my RS accounts tomorrow?
I mostly do manually transfer.

1st Jan - BoS, Darlington, Dudley, Halifax, Lloyds, Manchester, Melton, Nationwide, Newcastle, Principality, Scottish, TSB, YBS.
2nd Jan - Chorley, Co-op, Furness, Hanley, Loughborough, Mansfield, Market Harborough, Monmouthshire, Progressive, Saffron, Skipton, Virgin.

Hanley I did today as a debit card deposit.  Showing today's date in the transaction

In addition to the above I'm afraid sleep is starting to get the better of me on this occasion so I shall have to leave updating the regular saver timeline for the time being, I'll update it at some point tomorrow morning. Apologies for any inconvenience this may cause.

I have now finished updating the regular savers timeline. Of the original 60 regular savers that were on p1 of this thread when I began maintaining it on 28/12/24, 26 have survived the year without dropping off p1 of this thread.

If you exclude accounts that were added due to changes of thresholds, October proved to be the busiest month in terms of eligible regular savers being launched with 14 getting added to p1 of this thread. January and June proved to be the quietest with 7 being launched in each of these months.

I'm most likely going to create a new sheet for 2026's timeline, I'll launch the 2026 version at the end of this month when I do the next update.

Are you sure about Newcastle for today? I've just tried to fund mine by internal transfer but it won't let me do it today or for any future non-working day for that matter.

This is because you are doing internal transfer.  I deposit from my bank account.

Debit card deposits always show straight away, but this money won't earn interest until the transaction is complete (normally about 2 working days).

Have those that applied for the Dudley online regular saver a couple of weeks ago received login details yet?

Noticed that interest was added to my Darlington RS yesterday. Wasn’t expecting that!

Yes, I received login details about 5 seconds after the account was opened.

I had a look earlier this morning as I knew there was going to be an interim payment on 31st Dec. Still being a little sleepy before the caffeine kicked in, it took me a few seconds to understand what I was seeing. I was expecting around £20 with the rest being paid next Aug (12 months) .... instead, I saw £93.37 interest credited? This amount looks closer to what I was expecting in August! Is it me, or has someone messed up?
