Just realised the interest payment date for the Monmouthshire 6% is around 31/3. May have to reduce my monthly payments to £10.0

When the rate drops it'll drop for everyone on the same date(s). Every day missed is a day you won't get the headline rate, and will instead get a day at whatever rate exists in a year's time (not much if last year's Exclusive Regular Saver is anything to go by).

Which leaves me wondering what the point of the comment was? If you have the money to open early, you have the choice to do so or not. If you don't have the money to open early then it's Hobson's choice! I'm always open to being educated ... but might need it spelling out simply at times!
And no - Fixed Rate accounts are worth getting opened so long as you've enough to satisfy the minimum deposit(s). It's also worth delaying the first payment as long as possible in those circumstances.1 -
Is the Virgin RS Exclusive (Issue 2) at 6.50% still available?
The website and App having big problems so can't really check.
Managed to withdraw the full balance of the 10% - couldn't do anything on the app but it worked online.0 -

Well,l was still waiting for the email off Mons from my application last Thurs/Fri.
When about 6pm tonight received a email of them telling me to get the all singing all dancing shiny new fangled app.and speed up my acceptance.
Took the bait and have now just spent 40 minutes trying to get the thing to work. Eventually, I got to the end, l think, and there is no record of me being a customer!
I'll wait for the postman.0 -

- Interest is calculated daily and paid at the end of the 12-month term.
If you want to be rich, never, ever have kids2 -
31/3 is the interest payment date for the currently available EA, but they do not use the same date for all accounts. I also read end of term for Issue 8 and received interest at term end for previous Monmouthshire RS.2

Why would someone open a Virgin account and not ensure they have either the Virgin App or a Virgin Security key/device to enable withdrawals ?
Don't you need one or the other to login on Virgin online banking site anyway.
- 08-xx-xx sort code with 7 character customer ID
- 05-xx-xx sort code with 10 character customer number
- 82-xx-xx sort code with 10 character customer number
I have multiple accounts with the first 08-xx and last 82-xx sort codes and have never needed an App or Keyfob to login
I did it through the website on the phone initially to try and get it all sorted but now exclusively app because it's so much quickerSam Vimes' Boots Theory of Socioeconomic Unfairness:
People are rich because they spend less money. A poor man buys $10 boots that last a season or two before he's walking in wet shoes and has to buy another pair. A rich man buys $50 boots that are made better and give him 10 years of dry feet. The poor man has spent $100 over those 10 years and still has wet feet.
