Nationwide RS account question. 

My RS account  is due to mature on 21 October, but l could do with the cash  before the 27th of this month. (Although  l could manager) If l close the account, how much interest  would l forfeit 

Depends how much money you've got in the account....

About 23 days worth of whatever you put into it

About 1/12th of £85, so 7 quid-ish.

If it's fully funded you've got £2,400 in it 
So, losing 24 days interest at 6.5% would be about £10.25

Has anyone had any success trying to open previous versions of their regular savers by post?
I have the 6% RS maturing end of November, which you could open & manage online. I didn't open their later 5.8% RS, due to it being branch only & the weird rule about having a strict maximum across multiple RS accounts.
I was looking to see what they had currently, thinking ahead as to what will be the replacement, and spotted this:

6% Limited Edition Branch only, which I think is new?
https://mhbs.co.uk/savings/regular-saver-accounts/limited-edition-regular-saver/

Branch only so no good for me unless postal application might be accepted? The "How do I open & manage" section does mention postal application but seems to be specifically for an adult opening one for an under 18 as opposed to an adults own account

Thank you for that.
