I think MonBS usually updates after 9am.

There is one (or more) Bld Socs which seems to update around 10am

Teachers BS and Penrith BS also still not updated. Both update normally during the course of the second business day after deposit (today)

I applied for Mon BS RS Issue 9 via the app and it has opened as Issue 8 (I already have Issue 8). Does anyone have two Issue 8's?

And now online as well.

Edit: But no online applications - branch or App only.

I have two issue 8, opened 2 months apart, and one issue 9.

Do I miss anything - why people are opening MonBS Issue 9? 5% is not very high in today's RS standard.

5% is better than many of us will have as our best available easy access rate.

I was about to ask the very same question…..very underwhelming!

Amount of maturing funds in October. I still have in the region of £1,000 with nowhere to go and don’t chase EA rates, so 5% is an improvement. Would have passed had withdrawals not been allowed, as I expect to empty it (and Darlington) into higher payers in the coming months. I also wouldn’t go to the faff of setting up with a new institution for it, but as I already had Mon BS app access, it took less than a minute to open.

No please wait screen this time, which either means they’ve improved the process or the 5% isn’t attracting many applicants.
