    Just trying to make initial deposit to Manchester RS.
    CoP confirmed the account when i entered the 7 digit account number as reference,
    but for some reason Halifax needs me to call then to confirm the transaction.
    What is this 13 digit acc number mentioned in Manchester BS ?
    • Reference: Your Manchester Building Society account number. Your account number is a 13-digit account number which can be found in your welcome letter or by logging into your account online. Please ensure that your account number is entered exactly as shown including any uppercase letters.

    I waited over an hour for the User Id and didn't get it, so I went to their website to do a for "Forgotten your User ID?" on the login page, and got the User Id that way.
    Well, I eventually got the User Id the expected way too this morning 8am
  • Nationwide BS Flex RS Issue 3

    Mine matured yesterday and I moved the balance plus interest out. Overnight it has changed to Instant Access Saver Issue 10 (balance nil). I've tried to open a new Flex RS (now Issue 7) but the system won't let me, saying I already have one. Anyone had similar problem?

    I'm In the same boat. I do recall reading something about it needing to be next day on here bit that was probably about 17 pages back now and I can never get the search facility to work properly on the MSE APP! 
  • My Nationwide FlexRS matured yesterday and today is showing as in an EA account, which I have now moved temporarily into my nominated account. I tried to open a new RS but it refused me, saying I already have one. 
    Keep up, Nationwide!

    If you look in your inbox in online banking you'll find a welcome letter that contains the 13* digit account number but you don't need it: for me COP passed and the deposit was accepted by Manchester with the seven digit account number as reference.

    *It has the same 7 digit number but with some text added before and after to make it look like a usual Newcastle BS account number.

    I closed the RS yesterday (it wasn't an IAS yet) and opened a new one today. Now just waiting for the new RS to appear

    It would be good to know how quickly your new RS appears and can be funded ... TIA.
