TSB Monthly Savings Account at 6% NLA

Replaced by TSB Monthly Savings Account at 5%. Other Ts&Cs appear to have remained the same.

Would you Adam and Eve it! 
Was going to open this account  yesterday after getting a current account with them.
 That will teach me.:(

Could someone please remind me how you go about closing and re-opening this regular saver and how long it takes as I would like to open a new one asap? Can it be done online? Thanks

I've done it 6 month ago. As far as I remember it was online and instant.

I can't see how to close it online. Do I have to message them?

Is it possible to close a Gatehouse RS early? 

No:-( I've checked by message & by phone call, unless it is exceptional circumstances, whatever they maybe.

Yes I thought that was the case, thanks for confirming!

Should just be able to do it online. Click on 'transfer & pay' and the option to close it is there

Click on "withdraw" and it should give you an option to close the account, I think that's how I did it.  I'm sure I didn't send any messages, just closed it and opened a new one straight away.

This prompted me to check mine for this option. Skipton app says I'm getting 7%. The option I can see to open is the following:

Member Regular Saver

6.50% gross pa/AER variable for 12 months

• Tracks 2.00% above Bank of England Base Rate for 12 months
• Save from £1. If you save the maximum of £250 a month for the 12 month term, your savings including interest could total £3,105
• No withdrawals, early closure allowed
• Exclusively for Skipton members who joined on or before 20/01/25

I suppose my question is, given this seems to be a different account, can I have both?

No, so unless you need access to the money you would be better off keeping what you have until maturity - the 7% is fixed.
