Time for everyone to change:mad:
Alliance & Leicester lost ISA year
In March following a relatively small inheritance my wife and I followed the MSE advice and decided that Alliance and Leister had the best cash ISA deal.

However I wish to make a lump sum additional contribution to this fund for…
Halifax ISA Saver - rate change for fixed ISA
I read on this forum about the impending rate change on June 1st, yet the "good" folk in my local HBOS branches told me they did not have this information EVEN on May 31st!! Do you guys use insider dealing, ha ha? Anyways I already had my Halifax ISA Saver Direct (variable 4.75%) set up after a lengthy xfer from Abbey…
