    Just spoken to Beverley BS, the branch manager has confirmed that if they announce a cut to the interest rate of the Online RS and you decided to close the account early as a result you would still earn the bonus rate of interest provided you've paid in £10-£150 up to the day of closure.
    I hope  that's in writing somewhere buried in the literature! 
    It is in the terms. The Ts&Cs state:



    General Ts&Cs state:



    Thus my interpretation of the terms would be that losing the bonus would be a loss of interest, thus if they announce a cut to the interest rate of the account you could close the account and still get the bonus rate of interest under 9.15 of the general Ts&Cs.

    The manager of their only branch has corroborated this interpretation.

    Have received an email to say my application for a current account has been successful.. 
    How long does it take them to send account details, so i can open their RS? Is it via email or post? 
    Should receive account details on the same day and can immediately apply for a regular saver, forgot if it was online or in the app though. Regular saver acct ready to be funded in two days.
    Received no account details yet and applied and got approved yest :/
