I've applied for the Furness RS, now waiting for my ID to be approved. Fingers crossed😁

Thanks for bringing it to my attention, I know it's on their website already but as with other RSs I'll add it to p1 of this thread on the day of launch (tomorrow)

My reading of the terms was that it was one of this issue, rather than one RS full stop, thus those who have the NLA 160Y Anniversary RS are still eligible for the new one. I've applied anyhow on this basis as a speculative opening,

Isn't it postcode restricted? Or are you in that postcode!

Have been waiting for two years for these to issue another regular saver. Previous one in 2023 was 6.2% with £250 monthly max. Was able to do 14 monthly deposits. This 7% will be similar but with £125 max.

2023's was available in app and not postcode restricted though. Kept the maturity account with £10 in case they launched something else worth having but so far no cigar.

Tipton

Same scenario here too.

If it does become available on the App they may have to add a new Regular Saver subset type of account heading under the Product icon as they've not got any RS.

Fingers crossed for later today

Virgin Money - getting bored now. Submitted my closure request last Thursday. Still nothing, despite it saying allow 2 working days. Useless Bank.

Skipton membership…

I've been with Skipton for a good 2-3 years, but currently the only accounts I have open with them are the members and non-members regular savers, due to mature in July. Haven't funded the non-members one for a while so might close it to free up funds. But will probably restart the members one.

Product page says "have continuously held a Skipton mortgage or savings account, starting on or before 10/11/25"… well I've continuously held a Skipton savings account for longer than that but does it have to be the same account since that date or do overlapping accounts qualify? If I allow the regular saver to mature into an easy access account then presumably it will have a more recent date. Annoyingly I had an ISA with minimal funds in it which I closed.

Any experience with this? Will I still count as a member when the RS matures?
