    ChorleyBS Regular Saver (30.04.2025)

    I received a letter a week or so ago with maturity options.  I just wondered if anyone has sent maturity instructions through email or through the online messaging service ?

    I'm thinking about completing the form, scanning it and then emailing or using a message attachment, if that is possible.  This way I hope it would be quicker and I could keep the prepaid envelope, that may be useful later.

    The default maturity option is to transfer all/some of the balance to a Members Maturity Easy Access Saver (2 Withdrawals) account.  This currently pays 4.05%A. Transferring from this account may be a way to receive some of the maturing balance sooner, as a transfer from the maturing account to nominated on closure uses BACS.

    The reasonably good news is that a roll over option is possible and the account and rate (5.15%A again) is stated.

    Principality 6 month regular saver issue 1 maturity
    I can confirm that my husband’s issue 1 matured today and it went through as requested, £200 into a new 6 month regular saver issue 3 (so he now has two issue 3’s) and the balance and interest sent to his nominated account at 9:10am this morning. Hopefully mine does the same in two weeks 🤞😊
    Mine matures next week.  I thought you could only have one account of each issue so currently have opted to have all maturity funds sent to my nominated account.  Will reconsider if having a second issue 3 is a valid option.

    I had an issue 1, two issue 2 using the maturity option and an issue 3, if this still works I might end up with Three issue 3.
    Yes, it still works! I did my prinicpality maturity options today on my issue 1, selecting opening a 2nd Issue 3 which is set to begin on the 8th May ;)

    I've lobbed £100 into a new Coventry Loyalty Regular Saver (3), purely to gain entry to the prize draw. Only has to sit there for less than two months with it being a one-off draw, and seems worth losing a minuscule amount of interest to be in with a chance. I was lucky just before Christmas in their Sunny Day Saver draw, so am hoping lightning may strike twice. Thanks to whoever first mentioned the Regular Saver (3) here. 
    Where are the details of the prize draw? Are any other accounts covered?

    I have a Principality 1 Year triple access due to mature on May 4th. I had a letter to say it will automatically be transferred into an e saver earning 2.90% on maturity. I had a look online but there does not seem to be an option to give maturity instructions. Instead I went to the message section where there is an option for maturity instructions by message. I asked for £200 into a 6 month saver issue 3 and the rest to be sent back via the linked account. Probably the answer is no but I thought I would ask anyway - still waiting for a reply 

    Otherwise I will just close and withdraw towards the end of May when I need to fund next months reg savers.

    As a result of realising that in April 2026 I had no regular savers maturing a few weeks ago I went through the Principality savings selection and found 2 different ones for OH and myself that we didnt have so that issue is partly solved. 
    But I am quite liking the 6 month savers - easier than figuring out what I will need in a years time.

    There are no options on that saver. Their staff can't do much to it either.
    You got interest on the 01/01/25, you will not get anymore even when it matures.
    As when it moves over to easy access it keeps the 01/01/26 as next interest payment.
    So you need to call and get them to close the account, This gets your cash, plus the extra interest.
