For those who have a Principality Account maturing on the 13/09/25, the maturity options are now showing on their website.
The choices include the new Issue 4 of their 6 month RS.23 -
Sorry do you mean that you've clarified with them on their current RS's offered or last years? Because if interest is indeed paid 31/03 then I suspect it will have tax implications for many so may have to rethinkdrphila said:Bridlington1 said:
I seem to recall this happened with their Coronation RS (launched in 2023) which stated interest would be paid on 31/3/24 in online banking. In my case interest wasn't paid in March and was instead paid when I closed the account in April 2024.rallycurve said:Monmouthshire BS
Both the regular saver issue 8 (6%) and app/branch exclusive regular saver issue 1 (7%) pay interest at the end of the term according to the T&Cs:- Interest is calculated daily and paid at the end of the 12 month term.

Is this an error on the online system and the payment will be credited at the end of the term as per the t&c?
This will be important for many as it will fall in a different tax year as planned!
Also noticed that there is another more general regular saver terms and conditions where it states:- The interest for this account is variable, calculated daily and paid once a year after 31 March.
Hoping this is only an error in the online system! Does anyone have past experience with this BS and can confirm what will happen with the interest payment?
And with one or both of last year's 7/8% offerings. Clarified with them that it was end of term0 -

The choices include the new Issue 4 of their 6 month RS.I choose the rooms that I live in with care,
The windows are small and the walls almost bare,
There's only one bed and there's only one prayer;
I listen all night for your step on the stair.0 -

I'm in a similar position. If they give me the account at all, I'll consider it a huge win!Hattie627 said:
Excellent luck. I posted mine on Wed am (in time for uplift later that day at 6pm) but with second class stamp. Nothing showing on the app yet to suggest account open. Looks like I have missed out on August. Oh well, some you win, some you loseChaykin said:I have posted an application form and, although hesitant originally, also a cheque for £500.00 to MonBS head office in Newport (~200 miles by road from where I live) for their Branch Exclusive Regular Saver at around 6:00 PM on Wednesday night via 1st Class using a postbox with last collection at 7:00 PM. The account appeared on their app today at around 11:00 AM with a balance of £0.00. When I checked the app later in the day - around 6:30 PM - the £500.00 is now showing as in with a description "Cheque Receipt". Happy days! Impressed at the speed.Another £500.00 going in on Monday via bank transfer.

It should happen on 13th, a few of my Principality maturities fell on weekends in the past and everything happened on the day as promised.checkly said:
