Has anyone applied for the DTV from the London Embassy recently? I just want to know whether to wait for the 500k to have been in my account for 3 or 6 months..

Thanks

TLDR : Answer Summary
The duration the 500k needs to be in your account for the DTV application has varied according to personal experiences. Recent reports suggest that having the funds for just 1 month is acceptable, whereas others have mentioned potential requirements based on individual circumstances.

Mine was deposited after they said premium bonds weren't acceptable. And I just transferred it and got approved.

 it can really vary sometimes. Hanoi has also been known to accept the 500k with just one month too, just fyi.
