thanks - i did try that, but no good...i think thats just for setting up your viewing preferences when logged in.
i will try again once the weekend is out of the way and if no joy then will give them a call - i think its a bit unfair if you have to wait out the 6 months when you can view a closed account for 'information only' before they no longer class it as one of your 5 websavers! will let you know what happens.
if i cant open another for 6 months will probably go for the icesave 6 month term...little bit more hassle as all my funds are with halifax right now, but hey, its their loss if they wont let me give them more cash!0 -
Can anyone, please, provide a link to the fixed rate product to which this thread refers?0

That shouldn't be the case. They can't logically count a closed Web saver - in the total of 5 allowable? Otherwise I would have hit that when they first introduced the limit.
You've either hit a glitch or (they run their systems 365/yr) the Batch run on Friday (which they've had to revise because of the 7 day running) isn't clearing the closed account down from all their systems properly. Give them a ring Mon .. after they've gone through tonights Batch run?If you want to test the depth of the water .........don't use both feet !0 -

update - went through the app process again this morning and it opened it fine
must have just been a weekend system thing0 -
blimey, havent halifax killed the rates on the 3/6 month fixed websavers over the last couple days!!
3month and 6 month bown down to 5.68% gross - thats over 1% they've chopped off the previously generous 6 month offer.
guess we all have to get ready for a lot of this over the coming weeks/months with the impending sharp falls in worldwide interest rates.0 -
They must have just updated that this evening .... rates effective from tomorrow :-Fixed rate fixed term option
UK annual rates from 23rd January 2008
...... and you're right - options beginning to tighten. (sorry - bold from the quote .... not shouting!If you want to test the depth of the water .........don't use both feet !0 -
So, 2 hours left to take the old rate?0
