I suppose it's the utmost cheek opening the Issue 4 by application now, and then expecting it to be one of the choices when I get word about my existing 6 month account's maturity in two weeks time. Or ensuring it anyway by opening it today and seeing what happens. You never know with Principality.
Not showing on the home page yet though.

Just aim to get 1 by applying asap, anything more (via maturity) is a bonus

2 x MonBS Branch Saver applications submitted, in hope. Popped a first class label on in an attempt to get ahead of the masses of Freepost envelopes winging their way to Newport...

Posted mine today with second class stamp. Didn't realise there was a Freepost address. Mine will probably not reach Newport until next week, takes a snail a long time to crawl from Scotland to Wales. Hope I'm not too late. I put a cheque in with the application form, on the basis that it might be tougher for MonBS to reject an application with a cheque than one without (clutching at straws, I know!)

Good philosophy when playing the regular saver game. You win some, you lose some. The secret is to keep playing the game

Just got myself the 6% Monmouthshire Regular, I want to get the Member Regular from Skipton & to check to see if my initial deposit for their standard regular was credited but they appear to be down, are they usually down at this time?, the app is giving me an option to generate a code though? 🤔

Principality BS 6 Month Regular Saver (Issue 3) at 7.5% to go NLA within hours.

Replaced by Issue 4 at the same rate.

Nice on Principality - I was expecting them to cut the rate. I'm assuming it's still fixed rate? Moneyfactscompare doesn't say, and Principality's website is still showing the issue 3.

Just managed to get back onto Skipton my money is there for the standard regular saver & I've just got the member regular saver again.

Think I'm done opening new accounts for now, apart from the new Principality 6 Month Issue 4 😆

Hmmm.... I said the same thing at the end of July, and somehow have ended up with a Darlington, two Monmouthshires, and very soon a new Principality

It is a game & 1 I'm never 100% on but I hope I'm doing the right kind of moves

It's fixed, I opened and fully funded it shortly after midnight and this shows in online banking
