You’ve made a mistake: they all mature on 28/08/26.

I'm in the same boat. My Dudley BS Loyalty RS matures on 23 July. No maturity options showing online yet. Probably will be 14 days in advance.

Some of the more recent Suffolk BS Regular Savers allow early closure but not partial withdrawal. The earlier fixed rate RS's state that early closure is not permitted. Not quite sure with which issue the change took place, would need to examine the product terms (Suffolk always send by post a copy of the product terms with the opening letter you get after opening an issue, even the online issues).

Thanks folks. Will look into it a bit more. Have funded them this month anyways.

Have initiated a closure of a Principality FR Bond Issue 36 - shall see how that goes - rate just not high enough

Re Dudley Regular savers, I have 2, opened one yesterday so you can have more than 1

It's the 'Loyalty' flavour of RS that has a specific 1 only clause.

I had to call them when the interest rate went down and they made a mistake with interest calculation. The funds were in my account the following morning.

Do you tell them about electronic payment on the form or in an email?

I didn’t. The form only asks about how much your first deposit will be. I don’t think there is any need to specify this in the email.

just working out my deposits for August - am I correct in assuming that Darlington BS accept 13th payments? my 12-month RS (Issue 2) has today received its 12th payment and will have a balance (once cleared) of £3,018.32 - opened on 9th August 2025, so should mature 31 August 2026… i've checked Brid's archive links and cannot see anything about a max balance for this account.

I have 7 RS maturing before the end of August - 3 x Mon BS & 1 x Progressive BS (that have max balances and don't support 13th), 1 x Virgin (which doesn't state a max balance, so assume 13th taking it to £3,250 is ok) plus 1 x Principality BS (which states a max £1,200 but will accept a 13th to take it to £1,400).
