I have a Principality Christmas 2025 RS maturing on 24th October. I'm hoping to do a rollover to the 6 month RS (issue 4). I can't remember when the online maturity options menu normally appears, possibly 14 days before maturity (which would be tomorrow). Can anyone remember if it's 14 days or 7 days?

It’s 14 days.

Melton BS: new online system

I came late to this yesterday but took the time to read through the posts on here about creating a new login before starting. Thanks to all the information supplied by other posters, I managed to navigate through the process without a hitch. Thanks to everyone who provided guidance

Though they might bring out another Christmas saver which could be worth considering.

No, you rollover the maturing one to a 6 month RS4 and you can open a Christmas saver separately if they do release one.

That's how a lot of us now have 4+ RS4s 😉

And if you have a long term view that Principality are going to continue to offer decent interest rates on accounts that you can roll into, then open a 1 year regular saver bond, currently at issue 36, which can start from £1 and offering 4.85%, and when it matures roll it into a 6 month regular saver.

assuming that they allow you to - treat is as cashback, e.g not guaranteed... if they allow you to renew it, it's a bonus not a certainty... I have 4 x RS maturing with them this year (including the Xmas on the 24th) and from my previous experience, I don't expect to be allowed to renew any of them to RS4 (as I already have 1)... it won't stop me trying to each time, but I approach them with zero expectation of success (though have a green shirt handy to increase my chances).

Can you roll the entire balance of the maturing account into the 6 month RS4 or are you limited to the max monthly amount , which is £200?

Hence I assume leaving it at a low £1 ish investment then the loss is in the low decimal point £ type of area.
