Have I over deposited in this tax year?
Hi guys - not sure if I am over thinking this... I put £15,000 into Virgin Flexi ISA11 on 13 Mar 2024 (23/24). I got a note from them saying it would move to Flexi ISA3 on 31 Mar 2025. Is this counted against my 24/25 ISA allowance? As I have also deposited £12,500 with Trading212 on 20 Feb 2025. Does that mean I have…

flexible ISA 'same tax year'
Slight complication is that we are very close to the end of a tax year so let's assume it is currently May 2025.

HL LISA regular investing
Over the next tax year I intend to pay into my HL LISA using their monthly investment option to smooth out any volatility and to avoid fees. However does anyone know how the bonus works? Will that be invested as per my instructions on a delay when it's paid in or will I need to periodically mop it up and pay fees?

Putting £4k into a LISA now….bonus?
Hi there, if my daughter (18) opens a brand new LISA now (1st April), will she get the bonus for this year and then be able to put £4k in again next month? Hopefully this is a stupid question. But I feel like I’ve seen something to say there is a delay in the bonus being added. thank you.

ISA intrest takes me to over 20k
I've just had an isa mature with 20k plus intrest. I've transfered the 20k to a new ISA and had planned to withdraw the intrest and invest it in a new ISA in the new financial year, as I thought that transferring the whole amount would be against the ISA rules as it would have been over 20k. Could I have transferred the…

New ISA and ISA Transfer in same tax year?
Is it possible to open a brand new ISA with £20k and also transfer an existing ISA to a new provider (paying no new money in) in the same tax year? I'm assuming that transferring an ISA doesn't count towards the 20k limit per tax year as its money that's already been paid in a previously? Many thanks!
