    No it doesn't, 1st March 26 is a Sunday, I'd expect payment to be on the first working day of March.

    Hi everyone,

    Mansfield

    I posted a their application form with a cheque enclosed on Friday 23rd sent to head office with a First Class stamp.

    My money was taken from my Current Account yesterday 29th, and today I received the passbook and a letter with a reply paid envelope for head office. The entry in the passbook is the for the 28th.

    I am a new customer, and I'm impressed with their service.

    Am I now able to open a Bonus Regular (Issue8) with them now? Do I now qualify as an existing member? 

    Can I add my thanks to @Bridlington1, I like everyone, really do appreciate all the hard work you do.

    The 'Add account' option never shows on my phone unless I change the display to 'Desktop'.

    Once added it normally takes a day or two to show.

    …and by making it a "branch application" only and branch management account they can in effect limit it to those in the immediate local area able to get to the branches (2 of them) without actually having to say it's limited to residents of postcodes x,y,z etc.

    All in the aim of reducing the possibility of being submerged with applications if it were a postal account.
