    I managed to get a bit further this time and complete the application, but then it all crashed and went back to the homepage!

    It seems persistence pays off! I tried again and it went through to completion fine. User ID etc received by email immediately

    I received the text after failed applications this morning and had to reapply (full new application). Received, signed and submitted the Adobe document. However, the application then failed with a similar type of message. I called them (option 6), apologised as aware they must be very busy, and they were most helpful. Turned out, for whatever reason, my application bank details (Santander) had failed a COP check. They did a manual check and it passed. So maybe still some gremlins.

    Update - wife just had exact same problem and a different bank (Lloyds). The lovely lady again found the manual COP check passed OK.

    Only found out about Bucks this morning, having been out at the theatre yesterday evening. Managed to get through registration (Chrome on Windows 11 laptop) with only minor faffing at the signature stage and able to log in having received e-mails. Glad to get this one in time having missed out on Teachers.

    Bucks - Wasn’t going to apply yet until I saw the comment earlier that it’s being pulled today. Did it on an iPad. Worked seamlessly.

    The info does say the term starts from date of first deposit, so could potentially go to the end of June depending on when details are received and the funding window given. If it's anything like Teachers, COP will take a few days.

    Looked in their Savings T&C document earlier and still couldn't find it.

    Bucks

    Yes I got this at the end of the process. Applied early last night. No contact since. They've included registration reference, so it should be ok, just need to wait for a bit longer I think.

    Thanks to the OP for the Bucks reg saver info.

    Please can I confirm that it is £250 and not £350 per month- I had the £350 figure in my head

    About 1 this morning I could not sleep so I started browsing on my phone and catching up with the thread. Having missed out on others I thought rather than delay I would start my application there and then. Eventually had to get up to complete it as I needed my NI number so some scrabbling in the files and then all done.

    Got the email with the user ID number and started to register this afternoon before I realised that I'd added 44 to the start of my mobile number and hence I was not getting the OTP so I emailed them. Within an hour they had corrected it and rang me to tell me it had been done. I also asked the assistant when we might have account numbers so we can fund and he said it would probably be Monday-ish.

    OHs application was done this afternoon with no issues

    We have been thwarted with so many of the recent additions…. - Teachers we were away, Tipton not in the right postcode, Skipton already have regular savers, Furness for OH but waiting for his photo ID to arrive but probably will be July now ….the only one I've managed was Dudley so at last we have a second saver maturing in June 2027 to fill the maturing savers gap
