    Furness 160Y
    Opened in one step as existing customer, but not showing in my account list yet.
    Opening message states :
    "Your new account is being setup. Your new account will be live soon"
    Refreshed, website noticeably slowing now...
    Account now appeared and has a "not funded" marker next to it. Can make first faster payment now.
    Wow, that went much better then I expected.  Well done to Furness BS. Hope it is a happy anniversary for them.
    How long will it be before NLA ?
    This account requires a payment every money of between £1 and £160.  If missed you have 14 days to remedy otherwise account will be converted to an 'Access Account'
    Email received time stamped 3 mins after application made, confirming account details and funding instructions.

    the new Reglar Saver appeared briefly 
    I had to tick box to confirm I’d read through the terms 
    it said my application is being checked and have 14 days to fund with a min of £1
    when I checked back the account seems to have disappeared

    New account showing in my app 
    I had already become a customer last week by opening a triple access account 
    Good luck to all you other regular saver collectors

    Applied successfully in the app for myself and then my wife and I reckon took comfortably less than 2 minutes total which must be some sort of record

    Furness 160 anniversary regular saver

    Opened also, applied via general webpage select account and then new customer or existing customer button, the account for me only visible once I had ticked account details read box 

    If you want to be rich, never, ever have kids ;)

    Eighth Anniversary 100 Posts Name Dropper Combo Breaker
    Mine took seconds to open (existing customer of two years) but I was interested to note that the details state maturity will be ten months from opening, I had expected (I don't know why?!) the maturity date to be 31st October so maybe that was for postal applications?

    Anyway having put £160 into my easy access account last night I was able to fund the new RS with an internal transfer just now.

    Have a good day everyone!

    Not working for me as a new customer. Comfortably the worst application I've experienced and I have 40+ regular savers!

    I struggled applying in the app,  but managed by logging into online banking via website. Account open and showing in app.

    I can't open the Furness reg saver account. I click; apply online now, new customer, tick read box, get started here, fill in my basic details - then it says I haven't selected a product and takes me back to the beginning. Has anyone else seen that? I've tried from a few different browsers & my phone - same result.
