Yes it's only current year subscriptions that you have to keep together in one ISA or a combination of one cash ISA/one S&S ISA. Transferring current year subscriptions between ISA types are treated as if the subscriptions were made to one ISA type in the first place (e.g. transferring current year S&S subscriptions to a cash ISA are then treated as cash ISA subscriptions). You can transfer previous years subscriptions separately.
Good stuff, thanks Ed-1.0 -
It doesn't actually say explicitly that it will be possible to subscribe to a Help to Buy ISA, and another cash ISA with the same provider. I didn't think it was possible to subscribe to two cash ISA accounts with the same provider at the moment (though I may well be wrong - see my previous posts!). The first sentence suggests the Help to Buy ISA won't be treated differently.0

ISA managers are allowed to treat multiple ISA accounts held by them as a single ISA for reporting purposes, so you are allowed to split your cash ISA subscriptions between different accounts with the same provider as long as they allow it (not all do).
Interesting. Thanks again for the info. Sounds like this will be a real option then, which is good!0 -
Surely after next year with a tax free £1000 pa interest wont ISAs be dead for all practical purposes? For the great majority anyway.0

That's the situation now.
I'd much prefer to have all interest tax free so I can get best rate not need a cash ISA.Remember the saying: if it looks too good to be true it almost certainly is.0 -

Nationwide allows you to do this, but I don't know of any others.0 -
