Cash Mini ISA providers who are still mutual.
Are there still any providers of cash mini ISAs out there that are still mutual societies providing a competitive rate of interest? I would prefer to sign up to one of these societies, if the rate was competitive, on the off chance that if they decide to become a 'bank' or are bought out by a larger provider I would get…

ISAs, student loan and a cunning (or not-so-cunning) plan.
Hi folks, I've read the ISA articles and many of the threads, but I still have a question (apologies if I'm covering old ground here). If I open a cash mini ISA and put in £3000 before the end of this tax year, how would that affect my income tax - Roughly, I'm currently earning £14400/year (due for a raise soon, though :)…

Cancelling my ISA and it costing me more than the £ in there!
Having joined Charles Schwab a fair few years ago my share based ISA is worth very little so i figured i would close it and hold the paper shares certificates (just in case of a miracle).
