Thank you for your secure message.
Regrettably we are unable to complete your Maturity Instructions as you can only open one of the current issue number of the 6 Month Regular Saver in your name. This is outlined in the Account Terms and Conditions.

perhaps the obtaining multiple issues party is now over.

for the record, I already have 2 Issue 3 accounts - this would have been my third.

I don't think the multiple issue party is now over - my letter came today, issue 2 due to mature on 5th June, I logged in at approximately 2pm and set my issue 3 up as the maturity option (£200 into it, the rest into my Santander current account, as I specified.)

Just got my maturity options from Principality for the 6 month reg saver 2.

It's let me open a second issue 3. Great.

Now just got to wait 6 weeks or so and see if my other issue 2 can be moved into an issue 3.

Same here, forthcoming maturity of Issue 2 on 5 June. Maturity options open online as of today. I've asked to rollover £200 to yet another 6 Month RS Issue 3. This will be my fourth Issue 3. This can't be a mistake by PBS, surely. Must be an intended action to allow multiple Issue 3's. 

Did you have to send them a message, or was it showing for you online? Mine also matures 5th June and I had a letter this morning which had a 6month issue 3 info leaflet with it, but if I login I only have fixed rate bonds or the normal RS as options

Was showing online. There is a list of fixed rate bond offerings, which you can move your full maturing balance into, then another list of accounts into which you can move part of your maturing balance. One of the choices on the second list is the RS Issue 3. Select that as your maturity option, then it will ask you to enter how much you want to rollover to the new account (enter £200), then it will ask where you want the rest of the maturing balance to go/

Brill - I've checked again and this time the box in yellow is showing now, it wasn't there this morning. Three cheers for Principality!

that's what I did - then shortly afterwards I got the above secure message - just because the maturity option was accepted, doesn't necessarily mean it will be carried out!

Principality:

My 'RS Bond issue 34' matured earlier this month, and I selected a '6 Month RS issue 3' as my maturity option, which would be my second - instructions confirmed online, and by subsequent letter, then carried as per on the date of maturity.

Last Saturday, maturity options became available for my '6 Month RS issue 2', and again selected a '6 Month issue 3', with this confirmed online; today, letter received confirming the instructions.

I also have a '1 Year Triple Access Regular Saver (Online)' maturing on the same day, but no maturity notification, options etc. for this - it seems, from discussions earlier in this thread IIRC, that this one is 'an outlier', and I will have to close & transfer funds out manually?

Maturity options seem to appear online about two weeks before an account matures. I got a letter today for my RS34 maturing on 5th June, logged on and the options were there. 
That'll be my 4th Issue 3. It's handy, as it keeps the same account number, so I can just adjust the Standing Order.

I had letters in the post at the weekend concerning both of our Principality issue 34 maturity on June 1st and a 6 month regular saver maturing on May 29th. Yesterday afternoon I set all 3 up to convert to 6 month regular savers issue 3 - £200 to be carried over and the residue returned to the linked account. 
So far no secure message has arrived. 
I cant see how they can offer the 6 month saver issue 3 and then renege on it ...

Forgive me for thinking that you'd sent them a secure message asking to open this account rather than simply selecting the maturity option - I was led to believe this by the fact that they are thanking you for your secure message.

I hope you are all sorted now xx

I think any form you fill out with Principality formats to them as the receipt of a secure message, hence the thanks. I’ve had the same when using the close account menu, thanking me for my secure message and confirming that the funds have been transferred as requested.

Is there any way of turning off the paper copies of the maturity instruction invitations/acknowledgements?

Mine matured in April.   No maturity options for this account. It will morph into EA and then you can either withdraw or close it.
