    I recently thought this after recently becoming a customer, and yes it can take a working day or so to show, however the posting date will be the date you made the payment once you see it. Applaud this as some, like Furness, date the transaction on the date it is credited their side which is annoying.

    I've just logged in okay. I say okay, both times I've tried to login it's said my password is incorrect and I've then copied and pasted it in (iPad) and it's been fine. There's no eye to make visible what was first entered so don't know what's going wrong in the first instance.
    Very similar  experiences with me yesterday evening. (Online no app) Had to do a few attempts before gaining  access.
    Just tried and took two attempts but eventually got in.

    Ta for that. No joy with Chrome or Edge on laptop, was OK in browser on Phone. Deed done.

    EDIT : Just realised that I have VPN running on laptop (it's been on holiday), probably the culprit.

  • Sent a cheeky application for the Monmouth Exclusive Branch Reg. Saver yesterday. Expecting it to be rejected as it's just been pulled, but you never know  :)

    I just opened the Monmouth Issue 8 at 6% in the App as a new customer. App was fine & a/c opened easily, or was the one that was pulled something else?

    It was the MonBS Exclusive RS at 7% that went NLA on 18/9/25, I believe.
