    If I opened and funded the normal Lloyd’s regular saver today can I fund it again on 1 August?

    And as we expected the letter from Leeds Building Society arrived this morning regarding RegularSaver (issue 4) giving us six months notice, finally date is 1st February 2019.

    maxiumum amount you can now save is up to £7250 plus any interest earned but there are penalties for going over this amount

    From September 1sts the interest is now 2.55% and unconditional - bonus is included.

    So another £1500 can go into the account in the next 6 months. I've marked the calendar and altered my standing order.

    I now have 3 maturing in January and 4 in February and of those at the moment only 2 have on going regular savers to replace them. I might have to go back to little one and 2 year fixed rate bonds next year

    Already covered in its own thread.

    Does everyone get the 2.55% regardless of when the account was opened? If so I must have missed that as my spreadsheet has it as 2.3% :o

    It went up to 2.55% after the base rate rise.
    Do Money Saving sites make you buy more bargains - and spend more money?

    And you may open one of each issue of the branch accounts and one of each issue of the online accounts, so after a while you can have several accounts of each sort running at the same time. :)
    Thank you I opened issue 12 online, last week. I went into branch today and opened up another one. However, I have noticed on the account that the one in branch is issue 11 is this correct.
    Apologies if this appears a stupid question. Thank you

    Yes, 11 is the latest and so the current one.
