How is the maximum balance of the new Virgin RS Exclusive Issue £6000? Per the main list.

By typo on my part, now corrected. Apologies for the misinformation.

Additionally these cuts were a late response to the February cut to the base rate, rather than the May one. For the full list of interest rate cuts announced by Nationwide see:

Co-op Regular Saver

Does anyone have any experience 'refreshing' this account? How soon can it be closed and a new regular saver opened?

From personal disasterous experienced, I requested closure of my Co-Op RS at the beginning of Decemeber & it took 6 weeks before the Co-op system with great human intervention could finally fully closed it & I could open another. For that reason, I've left well alone on the closure & re-opening front. There's also been issues with the Co-op having cyber attacks, so that may also be something to factor in as safety & security comes first in the banking agenda

Co-op Bank has no relationship with Co-op Group, supermarkets and convenience stores, it only uses the brand. Co-op Bank is now owned by Coventry Building Society.

Mine recently matured, capital and interest moved to a standard saver next day. 
Opening a new RS took around 5 working days...

Mine took 6 weeks to close but a day or two to open a new one. Complaint raised and compensation received
