Decrease in interest rate payable on Online Regular Rainy Day Saver Account 3 – current interest rate 5.75% Gross*/AER** (variable) 

I am writing to advise that the Society has reviewed the interest rate payable on our Online Regular Rainy Day Saver Account 3. The interest rate on your Online Regular Rainy Day Saver Account 3 will reduce from 5.75% Gross*/AER** (variable) to 5.50% Gross*/AER** (variable) and the change will be effective from 01 June 2025.

Which society is this please?

Sorry, it is Progressive BS

Rate reduction for Stafford BS Regular Saver Issue 1 just arrived in the post. Already mentioned here I think, but they included the rates for all of their accounts and only the RS and Junior ISA have been cut by 0.35%, everything else by the cut exactly. Bit cheeky.

I've just spoken to Melton BS and they're going to be reducing the interest rates on some of their savings accounts on 28th May.

Of note though their Regular Saver 4, Regular Saver 5, Regular Saver 6 and Adcock Regular Saver are not affected so are set to remain at 5.5%, 5%, 6% and 6.5% respectively.

Excellent, I had so far been prioritising funding the NatWest Digital Regular Saver over the Regular Saver 6 due to the indefinite term of the former, but shall now switch that around.

Coventry Loyalty Seasonal RS

A penalty-incurring RS paying 5.5% is of limited interest to me so will probably take advantage of the penalty free closure option in the next 30 days, depending what cuts other RS providers announce

The penalty only applies until 31 October 2025, after which withdrawals/early closure are penalty free. 5.5% is still quite a good rate, given base rate of now 4.25%.

Based on my experience, the money should turn up tomorrow and the new account might also be opened tomorrow if you are lucky, otherwise over the weekend (there's precendent for them being opened on Saturdays and Sundays).

Thursday morning: Old account disappeared from app, managed to apply for new one
Friday morning: Got in touch with FD who (manually) emptied the old account balance into current account
Monday morning: New account opened with first deposit debited from current account and standing order set up
