I've got to sort out the maturity instructions for various Principality but please can I ask if a regular saver issue 34 becomes a 6 month saver issue 4 does the account number and details stay the same (despite the different  maximum amounts that can be added per month) ?
For efficiency I am thinking of adjusting the standing orders as I do each one.

I've had an ongoing issue with Principality timing out on me and having to log back in numerous times so what I do now is at the start of the month I log on and photo each account separately.
Then I can go through  the Google chart and check each one has been funded and then the photo gets deleted. 

When I was away in August I came back to 60 pages of posts mainly about Monmouthshire.
I've only been away for a long weekend and came back to 20 pages on Principality maturity instructions. 
I think in future I will stick to just day trips  

Re account numbers, the answer is yes.  Here is an extract from my account records showing that I had an RSB34 rolling over into a 6 month RS Issue 3 back in May 2025, account number stayed the same.

Six Month Regular Saver (Issue 3) (#3) account number XXXXXXXX (opened on 30th May 2025, maturing on 30th November 2025) (£200 per month) [rollover from Regular Saver Bond Issue 34 with same account number which matured on 30th May 2025]

Principality
My issue 34 became 6 month issue 3 and the account number stayed the same.  The same happened to all my recently matured RSs except Triple Access.

Principality. My maturity instruction (option 4) for Xmas regular saver to 6 month regular saver has been refused today by secure message. First time it's happened to me. C'est la vie

Kent Reliance Regular Savings Account 5.1%A, £500 a month

Has anyone had any success opening an account without having to visit a branch ?

I happened to be in Canterbury last year so opened one to establish a relationship but didn't fund it much till the latter months.  KR seem to have been fairly good keeping the rate at 5.1%A for a while and through a number of BoE reductions.

Whenever I've called them I keep asking if I can open an account by post, over the phone, online, with a telephone appointment or any way apart from visiting, without success.  Sadly, they have a call centre so it is not as easy as some other organisations to find a helpful person in a branch.

Any further examples or suggestions anyone ?
