    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?


    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 😉
    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?
    you're limited to the max amount £200, with the rest going elsewhere.

    There are no regular savers where you can rollover the entire balance on maturity.

    O my, if only.
    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.

    Thanks, it's what I thought but thought it was worth checking.

    Anyone know if there’s a way to hide a closed/empty account in the app? Or whether it would disappear from the app if I logged into the website and hid it there?

    Exclusive Issue 2 finally matured after dropping to 4.65%, but I got a freepost envelope with the maturity pack by holding out. Never funded beyond the initial £50 and kept it for most of the year in case the next Exclusive account had been limited to holders of that account.

    Or you could try to get two new Christmas savers I guess? Depends if they release it before last year's one matures. Last year the rate was lower (7%) and also the deposit limit (£125) so another RS4 would be preferential, but on the plus side the Christmas one lasts a whole year.

    Or they could do what they did in 2023 and launch a Maturity Winter Saver instead, only open to the holders of maturing Christmas Regular Savers. If they closed the loophole that allowed those without a qualifying account to apply and keep it, applying for it as a rollover would be the only option.

    My closed accounts don't show in the app. I have hidden them online - don't know whether this is a pre-req but I doubt it is.

    AFAIK, empty accounts will always show in the app. You'd have to close them to make them disappear from view.

    The Scottish Building Society Passbook seems to be taking a while to arrive in the post. I can see that my cheques has been cashed and Customer Services said it has been posted. Guess it's coming slow mail.
