Just as mine renews on the 11th April.
Lloyds Monthly Club Saver and Lloyds Saver interest rates now at 6.25% and 5.25%    

I think these have been the rates for several months 

The Club Lloyds RS was 6.25% in March 2023 - I don't remember it going up (or down) since then.

Has anyone else had their 1st April £200 standing order payment to Nationwide Flex Regular Saver rejected and returned to their bank account? This has happened to me.

Mine was fine, but my wife's was returned.  She did a manual payment when she noticed and that appears to have stayed there.

I have also re-sent mine by manual payment and also appears to have been accepted.

I suspect institutions are rejecting deposits if a Standing Order arrives before they have reset the monthly allowance, usually some time in the small hours, so experiences will vary based on the bank the SO was sent from and what time they processed it. I had this issue with Skipton not accepting a debit card payment at around 1am a few months ago. I pay into Saffron RS via internal transfer, but if I try after midnight it says no accounts available to transfer to. It offers the RS as an option in the morning with no issue.

Is it possible to close the Coventry Building Society Loyalty Seasonal Saver (5.6%) and re-open on the same day? Or is it NLA? 

Coventry BS Loyalty Seasonal Saver went NLA a while back and withdrawals/closure come with a 30 day interest penalty if done prior to 1/11/25 unless they've announced a cut to the interest rate within the last 30 days, which isn't applicable as they announced their most recent cut in mid February IIRC.
