    Anyone else had reversals in all of their Monmouth BS Reg Savers, funded on 1 Dec?



    Yes, I have too. Just checked after I saw your message. My Issue 8 has gone really awol....I paid in £500 which has been credited in 2 payments as £375 & £125 and then -£125 was reversed - making a total payment of £375 for December?! My November payment of £500 has also been changed in my Issue 8 from  a single £500 payment to 2 payments of £450 & £50, respectively? As for the Branch exclusive & App exclusive both payments were received into the RSs for December and then reversed. No monies (£1625) have been returned into the sending account, but they might show in the respective RSs , be returned tomorrow, or someones gone Christmas shopping!  :o:#>:)
    I thought it was very odd when the December payments weren't showing early this morning........
    I know Skipton had a brief outage of 30 minutes in the early hours today and they were working to get their system up and running again - Wondering if other systems also went down HSBC etc
    Edit: I see someone has posted that they've phone Monmouth and they're having IT issues.

    Could those split payments  be somebody else's transactions applied to the wrong account I wonder, something gone badly wrong so they've backed it all out to start processing again? 

    My transactions were definitely there before lunch today but have been backed out.

    I can at least get into Furness now.

    I checked late morning and it all looked okay, so something's gone wrong between then and early afternoon!

    Does anyone know whether the Hanley branch only 6.5 %  is viewable online? I might only bother with that one if I can see the money going in...
    Appears immediately after opening in app and online.
    Cheers. I need to clear out my Stafford Regular Saver, so as they're in the same part of the woods as Hanley I could do them both in the same trip

    I'll have to pop up to Scotland sometime as their one hasn't appeared online 
    Surely better to submit a postal application, as they will accept one. Even if the travel isn't costing money, the time taken must be worth more than a stamp.

    The relationship centre account is the same as the postal one, so you can't double up by going up to Scotland.
    I might do!
