Yes! I did wonder why they had become Americanised

Shouldn't that be 'Americanized'?

Not always. Mine matures on 1st June and 'maturity manager' is not showing yet.

Same issue for days, tried to delete and reinstall app but keeps telling me they have issues. Login via website works fine. Their app leaves a lot to desire for… and custtomer service, albeit friendly, is rather useless. Submitted 4 ISA transfer requests on 8th April, 3 done and one with Aldermore still no movement of funds and both providers accusing the other one being at fualt. 2 Complaints and a likely case for FOS.

How old is your phone? I was having problems with a few apps a few months ago. Everyone else saying they weren't having any problems.

Got a new phone (which I needed to anyway) and issues all solved.

Re. Monmouthshire BS regular savers

Both of my accounts show a transaction on 1st April that says my interest projection is £0.00. Was that an April Fool joke or what?!

I think it's because the system they use (also used by the Mansfield BS and others) insists on an annual fixed date for interest payments. Mansfield do actually use this, in their case the 31st December but Monmouthshire pay on the 12 month anniversary so that explains the zero interest entry. My theory anyway!

Samsung phone from 2020. Everything else, including another 60-70 or more apps working fine without issue and Saffron worked well before their upgrades.

I can deal with Saffron website login if needed so not a biggy.

P.S. No need for a few pages of phone and app conversation, we've had enough of that 😎
