    Roll on 00.01 am, Am I the only one waiting to open the Principality 6 month regular saver issue 3.
    To join my Two issue 2 regs.
    Max out the interest by getting £400 in in two days.


    I thought you could only have one Principality 6 month RS per issue. I have one issue 2 and one issue 3. Can I open a second  issue 2?
    Probably not. IIRC 2 x Issue 2 happened when they offered an Iss2 as a maturity option for a different ac when some already had an Iss2 in existence. 

    However, it doesn't take long to try - let us know how you get on.

    I can confirm I couldn't open a 3rd... :)

    I had an issue 1, then issue 2 went live so opened one as well.
    Issue 1 matured and gave the option of reinvesting all or some of the money, I went for some.
    The some option was an issue 2 reg saver.
    So I opened it.
    When issue 2 matures you might be able to open a second issue 3.
    Or in my case a second and third issue 3.

    You can only open one of each issue but Principality BS allow you to give instructions for maturing accounts to be converted into duplicate regular savers upon maturity.

    I opened a Christmas 2025 RS last year for example, then a month later a Maturity Winter RS and a 6 Month RS matured and both were converted into Christmas 2025 RSs upon maturity.

    Principality 6 month RS

    I have one of the Iss 2. I tried to open another Iss 2 by changing 6083 instead of 6084 as suggested by folks earlier here in this tread this morning. I got an onscreen messages after filling in all the details that "you have reached maximum number of this account... etc" suggesting me to look for other accounts. So I applied and got an Iss 3. So I have an Issue 2 and an Issue 3 now.

    I have issue one maturing end of April and if they allow me to open another issue, potentially a second issue 3 saver, as maturity option would they transfer the full sum of the maturing account over or will it be just opened and the max monthly contribution taken and the remaining funds are available to withdraw?

    So you can withdraw the full 5k from natwest digital regular saver and put it back in as long as its the same month? Can anyone confirm
    NatWest/RSB

    I have never withdrawn the full amount but have withdrawn and replaced anumber of times - this month I withdrew over £1000 and have since replaced it all to take me back to £5000

    See previous post where I included details off the account.

    My Club Lloyds Monthly Saver was due to end on the 7th April. I had a letter saying I could log in my account and see the options available to me. I had a choice of the Standard Saver at 1.15% or a Club Lloyds Saver at 1.40%. I had no intention of leaving any money in there long term but I chose the latter anyway. I was quite surprised on logging on today to see interest on the account dated the 26th March and that it was no longer a Regular Saver. Having got over the minor annoyance of 5 days low interest on the £400 I had left there I was then pleased to be able to open a new Regular Saver today and also set up a standing order starting tomorrow. I'll try and remember this for next year!!
