Also, I contacted Virgin Money to ask about the next Issue (number 4) of their Regular E-saver. They said it is coming but couldn't specify when.

The intervals between Issues 1-3 suggest it will come in March this year.

We might have to be quick off the mark with this one if and when it goes live.

Leeds building society closed its regular saver issue 3 in January, no new deposits after 31/01 but you can keep the account open and earning interest until the end of October.
They were promoting the regular saver issue 4 as a replacement but this account closed to new customers on February 10th
So some people will have been caught out by this and will be looking for a new regular saver

Virgin Money:T

Matchday E Saver £250 pm 2.25%

I don't think this has been mentioned, or how long it has been available, but I've just opened one (in addition to my existing 3 Reg e Savers;)):

There's also a parallel Store version for those who can easily get to one.

Some guff about MUFC benefits which might be of interest:cool: to some of you.

I've just had a call from Santander reminding me that my Regular eSaver will mature in a month or so. Does anybody know if you can open a new Regular eSaver (Issue 3) before the old one has matured? Thanks

You can't have two as an individual. I think many of us have tried that! I did a couple of weeks ago.It's a pity you missed the opportunity to ask when they phoned.

I also had a similar courtesy call today from Santander .. my account matures in March. I was told that I could only open my new RS account when the old one has matured.

I took this opportunity to ask why Santander will not allow multiple saver accounts when the Issue Number or Interest rate is different. I pointed out that some Banks and Building Societies allow multiples and he said the feedback would be passed on.

One never knows.

A voucher for free half-time refreshments. Not that I'd ever want to set foot in OT even for a free pork pie and a Bovril.

Champagne and a prawn sandwich maybe.

Bronson's gone mad with this constant flow of RSs, I can't understand why. I've called it a day at five.

Nice one. I'm pretty sure this wasn't available last week. Seems new.
