Principality

Suspect they didn't have a great uptake on the 6 month account, probably have better uptake on the 1 yr, albeit I'm not bothering with this one, below my threshold at the moment.

I've only had two emails…. an initial "confirmation of registration", then a "registration successful" with my login details, activation key, and how to make my first deposit. No confirmation that my account is actually open… did you receive the third email before you made your first deposit?

Yes, it feels rather more high-maintenance than other accounts - for 6.5% it's worth the effort though. And hopefully now I'm a member it'll be easier to open accounts with them in the future.

Principality 1 Year Regular Saver Bond @ 5% is now available - Sorry if already mentioned.

6 month RS NLA

1 Year RS bond @ 4.75% NLA

Teachers BS: For anyone who has still not heard from the TBS regarding their RS application. I received a call from Teachers BS this morning. Some RS applications have got stuck in the system and they can't presently access the application info. They're working on it and will be calling me back some time today with an update to my own applications. Although it maybe a faff, Imho 6.5% & 6% RS are definitely worth the effort to obtain even with slight initial glitches attached (Who remembers Monmouth BS and all the App glitches?) and certainly in the present new RS averaging 4.8% - 5% savings climate.

Small point, but the 1 year RS bond (issue 37) which is now NLA was only 4.75%. I have asked for mine to be closed.

Fat fingers and now corrected 😉. I have the 1 year RS bond issue 36 @4.85%, but I didn't touch issue 37 as it wasn't an appealing rate for me and I could utilise the funds elsewhere or leave funds in my Cahoot accounts.

Teachers

Email received last night (21:46) to say account opened but it did not give account number (I had sent deposit as soon as "Registration Successful" email received).

Could not see account when logged in but found that clicking on the cog to the right of "Add Account" revealed the details.

Same here. I sent the opening deposit when I received the second email (Tuesday) but haven't had the third email yet.

Teachers BS Update for those still waiting for RS account opening and confirmation. Returned call from TBS confirming that my 2 RS applications that were stuck in the system from late night 30th May applications have been located and are now in the process of being processed and accounts being opened. TBS are now working on the stuck in the system back log too 😅.
