The Top Regular Savers Discussion Thread

apt

Looks like new owner Nationwide is not upholding the tradition of Virgin Regular Savers which allowed you to have one of each issue. People used to go down to the branch about every 6 weeks to open another 3% regular saver. The new account won't be of any interest for those with the 10% RS unless it is still available in August.

Virgin RS - Like many, I have the one paying 10%. It just says ‘Regular Saver’ including on the statements. How do I know if it’s classed as ‘Exclusive’ and has anyone confirmed you can’t open the new one alongside the other? 

Read the previous couple of pages. 

The 10% saver was/is described as an "Exclusive" in the email confirming its opening.

Yes it's been confirmed (by me and others) that you can't have both.

Nationwide Flex Regular Saver Issue 3

Has anyone had any problems funding this today?

It looks like my scheduled standing order payment was returned to the funding account for some reason..

Manuel transfer to current account and internal transfer. No issues at all.

Mine was fine, although I did a manual payment not a standing order. I wonder if for some reason your payment was dated yesterday so Nationwide thought you'd deposited too much in one calendar month?

Yes, my £200 standing order bounced back to my funding current account. The same thing happened on  1 April (I posted about it on this thread back then). I have been paying into this particular Nationwide Flex RS Issue 3 account since October last year with no problems until 1 April and now 1 May.

As I did in 1 April, I made a manual transfer of £200 around midday today from the same funding current account (Santander Edge) into the Nationwide Flex RS and this payment has been accepted.

Not sure what the problem is.

No problem with my SO for the Nationwide RS. Mine comes from Santander, which bank(s) are the failed SOs from?

My Santander SO for my Nationwide regular saver was also rejected. Later in day straight one off FP went through no issue
