I placed a closure request and the details of the interest to be paid is shown under the "Closed > Transactions. " The closure balance will be paid on Tue 1 Sept 26

Ive done a withdrawal rather than closure as wanted to keep some money there and retain my relationship with them 👍

Each organisation has its quirks which could generate negative feedback. It may affect an individual, or it may not. Best thing to do is take note, and take into consideration when dealing with a particular organisation

I have done the same but with £100 deposited in a RS3.

Just in case any 'member only' offers ever come along.

I always keep £100.

Possible products or bonuses could use the 'voting member's criteria like Nationwide do

Also means you are notified of interest rate changes.

The opportunity cost at 4.75% variable instant access with no commitment is nothing.

First Direct RS standard order question.

My SO is due on the 30th and is usually in the current account ready, but today it slipped my mind. Does it matter it being a bank holiday weekend so nothing will be taken until Tuesday?

From my experience, First Direct standing orders are paid out on the next working day, so it should be paid out on Tuesday

Is there any 'risk' that if they offer a worthwhile RS in future, you might be limited to 1 RS of any kind/issue, so potentially better to leave the maturity EA account for continued membership, rather than open an RS3?

I had myself going round in circles trying to open a new regular saver at 4.75%. It kept asking me to login when I was already logged in. The correct way to do it is through the top right menu, 'Apply' option.
