The Top Regular Savers Discussion Thread

I've selected to reinvest £1 into Save & Support option for Market Harborough & rest to my nominated Virgin Money account, I'm going to assume the todays balance figure means there will be more money due at maturity?.

I got to the end of the maturity pages & it does state if no instructions given money will go into an easy access account so guessing that's what happens if you don't press the done button.

Principality maturity debate on XMAS 26 RS v 6 Month RS 4 - I am not sure whether I will have the choice. Today I received maturity letter for 6 Month RS 3 ending 30 November. They ask me to visit www.principality.co.uk/RSBmaturityproducts which offer Xmas 26 RS as my available option but not 6 Month RS4. Their postal maturity form does not have either of the aforementioned products as a maturity choice but strangely they have included leaflets of these two products. There is no online maturity option yet, but I presume it will appear in a couple of days and there will be the choice of the two products and I will be able to add to my tally of 6 Month RS 4`s by my usual method of reinvesting £200 in a new 6 Month RS4 and sending the remainder to my nominated account.

The "today's balance" figure is the amount saved  (£3,750 if the max monthly amount of £250 was deposited in each month since Sept 24) plus the small amount of interest which was added on 30/11/24. The main interest will be credited on 30/11/25 at maturity.

For a maturity date of 30th November, the online maturity options will appear after midnight tonight. It's always been 14 days before MD, which will be 16th November. I've got a 6 month RS maturing on 30th November, so will be checking out to see if maturity options are showing in the morning.

Prinky have their maturity options available two weeks before maturity online.
I had the options for the Regular Saver 35 appear online a few days ago and the Six Month and Christmas Regular Savers both appeared as options.
Cannot remember what the letter in the post said, as that went straight to the shredder.
I'm expecting the maturity options for one of my Six Month Regular Savers to appear tomorrow.

They do have the Xmas RS as maturity choice on the paper form - you would just choose "Reinvest some of your savings" and write in "Christmas 2026 Regular Saver", which is on their list of maturity products.  Though why we got the flyers for the Xmas Saver and the RS4 when the RS4 is not on that website, goodness only knows......

As you say, let's wait until we can give the maturity instructions online in a few days time. If history is anything to go by, we can select another RS4, or the XMAS saver, amongst some less attractive options.
