Just a heads up as I nearly got caught out. The sort code for this new account is slightly different to all my other VM accounts. Presumably due to the take over0 -

It appears that 2x£50 per day rule for online banking is no longer enforced. I've emptied my RS account today online without any problems.More than 2 x £50 is fine, 2 x £500 is the limit if you do not have the app and the limit is in total for all your accounts apparently!Transfers between a/cs don't count towards the limit, so I moved £1000 from RS to current a/c followed by 2 x £500 payments from C/A. I was then blocked from any external payments from RS.Just tried again and it's still blocked.
I have 2 current accounts. I moved £1000 from RS to each, made 4 x £500 withdrawals, made another £500 withdrawal directly from RS to another bank. I was left with £639.16 and decided to try go over £500 limit and that went through fine.
Sorry to hear you were blocked. Happened to me a few times in the past, very annoying and time consuming.0 -

That's the form you use, with the sort code and account number of your matured (or not yet matured) RS.That is what they say.
We recently received an online request to close your savings account, unfortunately we are unable to action this request at the moment due to the account having a credit balance. Please transfer all the money in your account to another account and resubmit the closure request online.
Kind Regards

I submitted the closure form this morning too. It said two working days to process but I am taking that timeline with a large pinch of salt given they are likely to have been inundated.
Tesco Bank require a zero balance on a savings account to close it but that is clearly articulated on the closure form and/or the instructions for closure.1 -

Anyone made sense of the following? If you open and fund on 1st August 2025 and pay in £250 on the 1st of every calendar month, then after 12 months (31st July 2025) you would have a balance of £3000, with no interest having been paid yet, or at maturity on 28th August you would have £3250+interest. Or is it actually a 12 month term?4

Chorley BS has now replaced Monmouth as the outfit 'bringing up the rear' stakes. Of the 35 RSs I've filled today only their two can't yet be confirmed as safely received.0
