Scottish BS Online Re-Registration

I did the same, wondering if sending out the letter triggers a copy to be sent to the email address provided an electronic ID check was passed or something (the original instructions did say they would send by email if possible.) It would of course be best if no letters were sent to those of us receiving a second email code, but given the use of ‘postal verification code’ on the portal when reregistering on the portal and the text in the second email (which to my mind implies this is the final code only) it isn’t as clear as it could be that this code should be entered into the postal verification code field.

This new system is the same one as Family BS switched to in May last year.

Don't think it works for SBS (at least for an account moving from old —> new system) - the user id field was pre-populated with your registered email address.

Haven't yet had my activation code so can't see if this user id/email address can be changed once logged in.

It would almost certainly require an email address change, and that is something they'd need to support, but some systems would not allow a + symbol to be part of an email address.

Lloyds/BoS monthly saver questions.

Well, I've managed to close and open both accounts, so I am now the proud owner of two 8%ers.

So l funded one on the 14th and the other 16th, will l be able to fund again on the 1st of Aug or have to wait for the month anniversary?

Do these accounts accept a 13th payment?

Thank you.

Yes. That’s what I’m doing.

Scottish building society.

I completed the re-registration today, and although it was stated that a letter would be sent out a few hours later, l received an email with code. Looks like everything is up and running now. But am not sure if this letter will still be sent now or if even needed??

What are more experienced savers option on this matter? Was the email code the same as the potential letter information?

Also, l sent a message asking if l could not use an email address as my username but was told NO. Maybe in the future, but at present email/username only accepting.
