Tipton

Electronic but not faster payments probably means Bacs and/or Chaps. My last Tipton RS matured in 2021 and the maturity proceeds were sent by cheque.

Blimey, looks like a RS even I didn't get chance to apply for. Gone before I even checked this thread. Well played Tipton, it's only taken building societies 4 and a bit years to do this to me, luckily an application form for the postal version is winging its way to me.

I'm aware it's been a busy day in RS land, I'll update p1 of this thread and the archived thread later this evening.

Tipton Save & Grow Regular Saver (Mobile App Account)

I just called regarding identity and address issues and was told the app based version release was a mistake. Luckily, I should be in a queue for the app version; it was not stated or implied that existing applications for the app version would be declined or not honoured.

I also asked for an application form for the postal version. I didn't ask if I could have both app and postal, but it has been mentioned recently that this may be possible. I did ask if there was any deadline or quota for postal applications and told there is nothing currently set, but there will be some point applications are no longer accepted. No electronic transfers out for the postal version; only cash or cheques.

If I was also put in a queue it must have been a very short queue, and I seem to have been given a duplicate account too!

It's the calendar month before the draw that you have to deposit at least the minimum amount (£10) to get into the prize draw..

So for the first draw on 16th October, you would have had to deposit at least the minimum between 1st (or 8th as account not available until then) and 30th September. That's my reading anyway (same rule applied for the prize draws in Issue 2)

Have tried to apply on the app, but don't receive the 6 digit passcode - tried on two phones. Can you apply for the app version using the paper form?

No you can’t and it appears that the spp version has been withdrawn

I'm hoping the 'ordinary' Tipton and Coseley version is still available on Friday as I'll pop into Coseley and do it the old fashioned way.

Fingers crossed.

Tipton & Coseley - Save & Grow Regular Saver (App)

I applied for the saver through the App (am a brand new customer) at about 11.30pm last night and today at 2.40pm I received a text to say "Your new account with The Tipton has been successfully opened"….though when trying to deposit into the account from my main bank, I still get " Unfortunately, the payment reference can’t be found at the payee’s account provider. As the payment reference will be used to identify which account to pay the money into, check you’ve entered the payee details correctly and confirm them with the payee. Cancel the payment if you think someone might be trying to scam you."

This happened to me when I opened the 125 Yr Saver. For some reason, the same account appears twice (same number), but it hasn't happened with the Save & Grow one.
