Tipton, if you didn't note the account details and waiting for verification in app, if you press the back arrow top left in app, it shows the account details again.

doesn't for me, just shows the two other accounts I already have with them 🙁

I'm going to refresh towards the end of this month in case it goes NLA at some point in October. If i do this on 28th September (ish) then I'll have £500 in it by 2nd October, so nearly back where I am now, and if it is still available in late October i can just do it again.

Not planning on it, we don't know what other accounts may launch in October making it no better as a maturity date than the Summer. If it backfires you risk losing 9/10 months at 8% to gain 2/3.

Halifax

I refreshed mine towards the end of August. I guess it will still be possible to refresh up until the app and online access disappearing at the end of October, but there's no guarantees it'll still work. The RS could be withdrawn before that.

I guess to eke out the maximum possible interest from your regular savers you'd want to push your maturity as late as possible, but for me anyway I wouldn't risk it for just a couple of extra months. As @Kim_13 says you could potentially lose a lot for a relatively small gain.

I dont see it as risky. From discussions on here, it has always been possible to renew Halifax RS easily. I can't see them bothering to pull the RS in the next few weeks when they can just let them naturally become unavailable from the end of October. I will do a quick check on the day to confirm it is still being adverised before going ahead.

It will extend the 8% for me for another 3.5 months, and this time I will open it nearer the end of the month and so get £500 into the account within days. For me an end of October maturity is vastly favourable as I have about half my current RSs maturing in June/July.

Can you have both Lloyd's and Halifax RS without issue? I opened Lloyd's 8% earlier this month.

But you can only open a Halifax account if you have a working Halifax log in
