Thanks for the info. The email I had said the RS would not be available after the 22nd, my RS runs out in 25 days time so I think I'll wait a week or so to max my interest then give it a go.

This is what I get also avocado1988 so I am assuming the same, I guess we keep the reg saver we have until maturity and we cant refresh.

That’s what I get too. But after you’ve closed your existing one it may - or may not! - appear as an option under Savings and the + sign to open a pot. I’ll probably chance it in week or so since my one hasn’t got long left to maturity.

Zopa refresh

If i click on "Benefits" it is still showing the 7.1% RS available as I have not taken the option to switch benefits

Yes that is what I get at first too but then once I click on “switch my benefits”, it takes to me the screenshot I shared earlier. I think as I’m exactly 4 months in now, I feel I may just let it run for the remaining 2 months as there seems to be too many “ifs” haha! But I will see what others do and perhaps if everyone here is having success (and no one is unsuccessful) then I might chance it!

As long as it says Active in green under RS option then you should be ok. I just had about 20 days left and made sure I had the green active before deleting existing pot. Once thats done go back to your benefits abd green active will now be greyed "ready to activate" so just click on that to activate and you'll have a new one ready to fund.

it doesn’t depend on whether you switched any benefits. I did switch to the new DD cashback, and I subsequently also renewed my RS. I can still see the RS on the Benefits page

Still no sign of my new Tipton RS that I opened and funded Monday night. COP not working either.

Tipton assured me it will eventually show, and my deposit will be dated Monday.

Tipton

I opened the new RS on the app early on Tuesday. Got the account number at the end of the opening process (which I noted down at the time but that's the only "record" I have that the account exists). COP not yet working on those details (Santander current account), so I haven't sent any money. Account not showing on the Tipton app. No email from Tipton confirming account details and that account open. I'm not willing to send any money at the moment. I'm taking a wait and see approach. Being cautious. Particularly as we have to trust the app (no online portal) This looks like it could be an overwhelmed small Society which has got into a mess and could take a while to sort out. Not worth risking money being lost in the system (IMHO)

Edited to add: who remembers the TSB debacle in 2017? Sorry, 2018

Tipton app version

£200 deposit appeared in the app today and dated yesterday.

All great.

Postal application sent Monday so wouldn't expect much on that yet.
