So after opening and funding my new Santander RS, can I put the next 200 in on the 1st July? Or does it have to be the 23rd of each month?

Am about to close my Santander RS in order to open the new one. Regarding the funding date, my old RS I opened on 11th February, and funded every month after that on 1st with no problem.

Yes, it’s definitely not being done chronologically, or even with/without queries. I’m still waiting and my application was confirmed immediately, OH had the message saying more checks needed and then that was opened Saturday morning, we’re both new customers.

it's an anniversary month - so second £200 goes in anytime after the 23rd… for me, i'll delay that until 1st August to match with RS depositing schedule.

The terms say You can make any number of payments into the account, up to the maximum monthly deposit amount, which to me would imply you are not limited to making payments on the same day each month

I haven't had any problems with my 5% saver paying in on 1st month after opening my account on 11th February. Unlike Zopa who will stop you transferring earlier than the equivalent day each month.

I'm still waiting, too. Also applied Thursday. As long as I can make my first deposit by Friday, I am not fussed.

Santander were very quick in closing my old RS today. I requested it in chat this morning, and it was all done before 3pm. New RS now opened and funded 😎
Thank you to who alerted us to the lovely RS.1 -
That is not answering the previous poster’s question.
If they have just funded the account with £200, they cannot pay in another £200 until at least a month from today.
