    Lisa came back to me as well and told me I wasn’t allowed another regular saver 3. Oh well, was good for the short time it lasted.
    Lisa from Principality has not been your friend for sure and it's annoying not being able to make some extra interest. Rachel from Accounts is perhaps more of a concern to us and could cost us far more of future returns e.g. ISA's but we shall see. 

    Anyhow, it's all been fairly quiet on the regular saver front, not many new accounts and mainly notices of rate reductions. 

    Personally, I am hoping the Virgin regular saver is still around in July when my 10% version matures. Skipton is also maturing in about 2 weeks for me and of course I am hoping Lisa will not block me from having a third issue 3 regular saver so going to submit maturity instruction online on the day before maturity after business hours on the 4th. 
    My 3rd and 4th issue3s are coming on 30th May and 5th June respectively.  I've received e-mail and letter confirmation for both. I expect them to be opened as promised. 


    Principality 6 month RS renewal.

    I hope you have better luck than I did.  I was just messaged and very politely told no, by Lisa.

    I got my second Issue 3 Principality 6 month reg saver today, with £200 in, when my issue 1 expired

    Me too, I took the online maturity option of issue 3 rsa, despite already having one.  It accepted it, we ll see on actual maturity date if computer says no.

    Huge congrats to all posters on here, I have 30 active rsa s with 9k pcm going in.  It is indeed a hobby.

    By Friday next week I'll know if Lisa's said yes or no to me, as I'll have four Issue 3s by then if she says yes!
    I consider myself to be a male feminist. Is that allowed?

    I received a letter through the post from Principality saying my maturity instructions will be carried out on the 3rd June and funds will be sent to my nominated account.  Fingerscrossed they deduct the £200 as requested and open another issue 3 regular saver with it.  No messages from Lisa and sincerely hope shes lost my address.

    Principality Regular Saver 3


    I have had the secure message from Lisa today, saying no to Regular Saver 3, as I can only open one.  I have already got two open.

     

    I am not too stressed about it, but irritated by the fact that I have now lost control over giving them a different instruction, as my account still has a banner saying my instructions will be carried out on 5th June.

     

    I cannot ring them tomorrow as I am away on business for the day.

     

    Has anyone here contacted Principality and challenged what Lisa says, on the basis that some other people seem to be able to open them even though they already have 2 RS3's open??  If so, what did they say??

     

    Thanks,

     

    Andy

    I've had an email today through from Saffron regarding the members loyalty saver due to mature on the 12th of June. There is supposed to be a  ‘maturity manager’ feature on the page but I cant see it so I've messaged them. I've asked to convert into a small saver but I am still hoping for something a lot better coming up in members month ....

    I wouldn't challenge it. Don't want to spoil it for everyone else and I can't imagine it would be successful anyway.

    Open up the account due to mature, it'll be in the left hand column under the link 'set maturity instructions'.
