Anyone have any ideas when the NS&I will release any more Index-linked Savings Certificates? I really enjoyed them doing them every month. :)

    I would guess they will return when the interest rate returns to it's "normal" level.

    When will that be???

    I have read this week (can't remember where), that they won't be back until at least next fiscal year. So nothing until at least April.

    Wild guess time:

    I think their return will be announced in the Budget.

    Potentially restricting access to over-60s.

    Feudal Britain needs land reform. 70% of the land is "owned" by 1 % of the population and at least 50% is unregistered (inherited by landed gentry). Thats why your slave box costs so much..

    And possibly using CPI rather than RPI.

    My issue 15 matures in February, I think I can re-invest for the same term but not add any new money.

    You're right.
    Mine matures next week and I got the letter from NS&I saying I could keep the money for another 3 years at "inflation-proofing rate + 1%" per year.
    That's what I'll do, because that still gives a very good rate, tax-free.

    It is also readily accessible you don't have the 12 month no interest penalty.

    After their withdrawal last year, a spokesman featured on Money Box stating that their current plans, when they are restarted was that they would continue at RPI.
    I do, of course, realise the the term "We have no plans to ... " have become a little - what shall I say - devalued?
