    Eh? We've had Manchester BS, Beverley BS, Scottish BS all launching good RSs recently. Also the 3 Monmouthshire's not that long ago. And the ongoing activity with Principality. Personally I need a breather from all the excitement

    Fear not, it won't be quiet for long. I think we're expecting Scottish Building Society to make their regular saver available for online opening, and that will probably dominate the discussion for a few pages. Principality might release a Christmas regular saver in the next couple of weeks. Or might not. Banks like HSBC and TSB whose current offerings aren't very exciting might produce something more enticing. Other newcomers like Manchester might pop up out of the blue.

    To be honest I don't mind that it's a bit quiet at the moment, because I haven't really got the funds to add any more accounts to my collection.

    On the contrary, last few months RS new releases have been plentiful. I am still waiting on two cheques to clear from the latest RS releases. One advantage of a steady release of good RS`s is initial funding is slightly easier and also maturity is staggered over time releasing funds gradually for new opportunities in the future.  I have been pleasantly surprised as EA interest rates slowly decline, RS interest rates are holding up well.
    Topyam - I assume you have all the best RS`s already in your locker. Patience is a great virtue (-:

    Well I sent off for my postal SBS RS on the 3rd and my cheque only cleared yesterday at this rate, I would have been better off waiting for the online version.
    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.
