Just type in the account number where it says “Add an account”.

I got fed up of the clutter of closed accounts on the online home page and I asked via SM to clear them if possible. There's a wheel shaped button next to Add an account which you can use to do it yourself - and recover them if needed. Never knew that! So if anybody else needs to know.......  

Shame they still show in the app and there doesn’t appear to be a way of hiding them in the app.

I've just gone through my MBS closed accounts that show in the app and it seems to be the ones that I never added to online banking, I had 2 regular savers from 2023 which they sent the account details to the wrong address so these never got added to online banking but show in the app, there was also a limited access account which I applied for speculatively but they announced a rate cut before I funded so I never funded the account or added it to online banking, again this shows in the app but not online banking. 

None of my other closed MBS accounts (which I've had hidden in online banking for a while) show in the app.

I've just tried adding these accounts that show in the app to online banking and set one of my other closed accounts to show in online banking as an experiment. If in a few days the other accounts have been added to online banking and the account I've just set to show in online banking appears in the app then there could be a workaround.

It may just be a coincidence on my part but it's worth a shot I suppose.

I don’t think that will work, as I have a closed account that i have hidden in online banking, but it still shows in the app.

Regarding Principality and the new six month issue 4

Just set up the new accounts and also done the maturity instructions for the previous incarnations maturing this month. I noticed that I still have regular saver 35, two of them and a regular saver issue 36 both of which have variable rates due to drop on September 18th. 

 Issue 36 is fixed rate and I'm pretty sure issue 35 is too.

I can confirm that Principality Issue 35 (£250 per month, 5.15%) is a fixed rate.  Mine is set to mature on the 19th January

And off the top of my head this was also the case for the following PBS regular savers that I've held at various points since 2022:

Issue 34, 33, 32, 31, 30, 29, 28, 27, 26, Christmas 2025 RS, Maturity Winter RS, Christmas 2023 RS, 2YHHRS, 6 Month RS Issue 4, 3, 2 & 1 at 5.5%, 5.5%, 4.5%, 4%, 3.25%, 2.8%, 2.25%, 1.5%, 1.25%, 7%, 6.25%, 5%, 6%, 7.5%, 7.5%, 8% and 8% respectively.

Off the top of your head?? GCHQ could use you. But we'd miss you.
