"Scheduled maintenance" rather than a random issue, so it's not good planning as they would have known accounts were maturing today.
From my maturity email, it looks like it rolls over to an easy access saver the day after maturity, so interest might not be added until the close of play today anyway.

Scottish Building Society RS
I opened this on 06/10/25. Now showing online as matured into Easy Access. Interest of £100.50 has been added (£250 pcm saved for 12 months, 6.5% until late January 2026, then 6%).
I am taking out all except £1 from Easy Access to maintain membership.
No suitable replacement from SBS at the moment.

Still rankles that ScotBS dropped that rate by .5% 2 months after launch despite the BoE cut only being .25%.
And the implied freebies arising from their sponsorship of Edinburgh Rugby never happened.

Interest was added yesterday (apparently), just checked via 'phone.

Well starling rejected me, first bank ever. No reason given. Re post on prior page which was swiftly name changed as employees read it, it worked and is fully funded.
The post re apps is me too, 5% min, app, access to funds, I m in

My email actually said matures yesterday, conversion today which I thought was the clearest way of doing it in that the 6.75% rate stopped applying at midnight with today being exactly a year since the first accounts were opened. Some others you are told matures x but when you try, you find you can’t actually get the money plus interest until a day later (YBS, Monmouthshire pre app etc.)

Good to know the Easy Access can be kept with £1, it was £50 for the RS.

Yes, disappointed with the rate drop.
I don't remember any implied promises about rugby freebies but I'm not a rugby follower so probably would not have paid attention.
I double-checked the terms of the easy access account into which the RS has matured and definitely £1 minimum balance.

Progressive
Just rang them and they said it should be up again in the next hour or so - “keep a wee eye on it!”
EDIT - Now back online. Maturing RS visible and funds transferred out. All good

Monmouthshire
Has anyone got a Monmouthshire regular saver 9 to accept payment? I've had a returned payment which I think must be this. I've sent it off again yesterday but its not showing yet on the list on the app. If it bounces again I will take it off the "saved payee" list as it must be an account number mistake that Ive made.
But now I think about it as its just 5% I am not sure why I am bothering and it it sits there with a zero balance
