4 was definitely 28/8/25, discussion on the old thread at p538 and surrounding pages. I opened Issue 4 on launch day and as I haven't refreshed it, it is still open and matures on the 28th. The links tend to be discovered around a week before the accounts go live which may be where the 21/8/25 date came from.

Question regarding Coop regular saver and maturity dates please before I update the calender - I have checked the 1st page which says maturity is 12 months from opening.

I opened on February 17th but the account was not accepted by the Coop until the 23rd February (which I then funded) - so is it my opening date 17th or the Coop opening date of the 23rd ?

Checked the app and no dates are showing - as least Principality list the maturity dates :)

23rd, Co Op are one of the few providers that treat opening as the date of deposit. Which I suppose is only fair given that they don't open straight away - if a person was busy with work or other commitments by the time the account was opened, they would otherwise be losing days off of the term.

It looks like I've made a typo in my spreadsheet (typed 1 instead of 8). Maturity date is definitely 28th Feb, so it was launched on 28th Aug. Thanks for correcting this.

I still haven't had any notification from Chorley on this. Not so fussed on the RS but got a reasonable amount in a cash isa which is going to be uncompetitive. Now beyond the 14 days notice they're supposed to give.

I was notified by email on 20th February. Cash isa's drop between 0.2 and 0.3%

Anyone know if Principality have a paper free option. Currently for every 6 month account I get a letter telling me to choose a maturity option, then another telling me I've changed it, then another saying it's matured, etc…

I don't think they have. I was looking for it a while ago, couldn't find any. I wish there was paper free option, would save Principality some money and a couple of trees. I'm sure there are many customers who are happy with electronic communication.

PrinBS have a member forum, Member Pulse, maybe that's the place to ask "won't you think of the trees"?

Closing an account 3 weeks before maturity ought to dispense with maturity options and we have received your options letters now that the loophole is closed, but I doubt anyone feels strongly enough about saving paper and postage to cost themselves interest doing it.
