Re Dudley BS Loyalty One Year Regular Saver

Did you fund it via cheque or electronically? I think it's cheque only, but wondered if you or anyone managed to fund it differently.

By FP, as soon as the account appeared online.

That’s what I was going to do too, just tried but it won’t let me withdraw even though I have a nominated account on there, possibly because the minimum operation balance is £250. @flaneurs_lobster, let me know if you have better luck 

Ah, me too. Going to be brave enough to close the EA?

Market Harborough Fixed Term Regular Saver (30.06.2026) at 5.8% NLA.

Replaced by Market Harborough Fixed Term Regular Saver (30.09.2026) at the same rate with a new maturity date of 30/9/26.

I see this is open in branch only unlike previous offers.

I applied for the Monmouthshire BS Regular Saver Issue 8 paying 6%, up to £500 per month and unlimited withdrawals on their website (not app) on Friday. I have received no e-mail or any other comms from them at all yet - is anyone else waiting?

check your junkmail. should have email from them.

I've applied online on Friday.  Didn't receive any e-mails with regards to my application.

Only the first was officially available online if I recall correctly. I think there was a workaround briefly in December 2024 for the second, but nothing since.

Regarding Dudley BS, I applied for a Dudley BS EA account the night before the One Year Loyalty RS was launched and the EA account was not opened until the day of the Loyalty RS being launched. I applied for a Loyalty RS.

I have just checked my online banking and I now have a One Year Loyalty RS showing as opened on 25th July with a balance of £500 despite having never funded the EA account so I shall just leave the EA account to get closed due to lack of funding and retain the RS.

Dudley BS

I also opened my RS the day after opening the EA, and the day after that i sent a message asking to close the EA which was completed within 24 hours.
I have also opened the One Year Regular Saver Issue 9 at 5%.

Market Harborough BS RS

Just to note you are still limited to 2 fixed term accounts at a time (so those with previous issues may struggle to apply. Moreover customers are limited to £250 deposited across these accounts per month however it does not seem (yet) that MHBS is enforcing this detail.
