Shawbrook fixed rate cash ISA - initial deposit
Hi, Shawbrook famously allows for unlimited deposits throughout the term of their fixed rate cash ISA. However, they do require an initial £1000 deposit in order to open an account. Does anyone know what the window to provide this initial deposit is? The reason I ask is that I’m thinking of opening an account, but have…

Are there any ISA providers that allow transfers in of a matured ISA 'mid-term'?
I have an ISA at 4.93% maturing in August. I would like to secure a fixed-rate ISA at a decent rate now, e.g. today, then transfer the 4.93% on maturity to avoid penalty, but everything I've found so far insist on all transfers in being completed within 30 days. I'm concerned if I wait another month or more, the rates…

Trading 212 cash ISA Allowance
Looking at my Trading 212 cash ISA, I am surprised that it says that my remaining current tax year ISA allowance is £25,000. I thought the amount was only £20,000. Is this an error on their part, or is one allowed to pay in to the previous year's ISA as well? That might make sense, since earlier today it showed the…

Calculating cash ISA transfer delay and where to pay compensation
I've had a delayed cash ISA transfer occur for a rather large amount. The transfer was delayed at the stage where the old manager sends the funds (step 2 in TISA process table). However the delay principally appears to be caused by the new manager ignoring a 'Ready to Send funds' message from old provider. Looking at the…

I have requested an ISA transfer from Plum to Monument a while ago. Yesterday they sent me a message stating that this has now been completed and that the funds are now with Monument. However the funds still show up on Plum and the account has been frozen. Monument have said that they initiated the transfer but that they…

Cash ISA's and savings account
I/we have £80000 to invest. The plan is to open a Cash ISA each and put the balance into a savings account. Each year after that we would open two new Cash ISA's and put the interest saved into the savings account. Is this possible and are there possible pitfalls? This is how we are hoping to stretch our retirement fund!
