This all feels very reminiscent of the issues he has getting YBS accounts to open and I think Newcastle refused him at the 1st attempt as well ... 

I believe the correct term for someone in your partner's position is 

"Your old man is well dodgy, innit!"

Principality Maturity 
My Princi 2 Yr HH bonds are maturing tomorrow. What is the latest time I can give maturity instruction?
Ideally trying to give instruction after their staff logs out. I assume its 6 pm.

I may or may not be successful, but I can certainly try & report here later.

I am starting to think he has a secret past that I dont know about!

This is a desperate attempt to fly under the radar & hope for a new maturity instruction acct to be opened.

I did it the evening before maturity, and the balance minus £200 was transferred to my current account 9am the next day - "result!" I thought, then had another £200 into my account later that day at 4pm and the HH which was briefly converted to a 6month RS vanished.

Quite the sleuths!
PloughmansLunch What time evening, do you remember?

Insanity: doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results

What you don't know is neither here nor there, what's really important is what Equifax knows.....

Probably nine / half nine? I had the secure message after lunch the next day, which was the kiss of death I was expecting.

West Brom Winter Ready

Applied yesterday afternoon and today I had notification and the email with account details and I can fund from tomorrow - a long winded way of doing it but there it is ...

It's becoming increasingly common an instruction, and it usually is because they have gone for a Confirmation of Payee integration which runs once nightly.

I usually ignore the instruction, send straight away and just accept COP won't work; never had a deposit rejected yet!

I've just tried that and Lloyds ain't having none of it today. I can't even set-up a pre-dated SO as it's the same issue - Never had an issue before..... Oh well, yet more faffing around again tomorrow it is

I've tried sending a payment from BoS and it says the account doesn't exist, so cannot even get it to ignore CoP yet. So I imagine they do something overnight which then makes the account exist.
