Transfer from Help to buy to Lifestime ISA
I have had a Plum LISA set up for 12 months now, in addition to a H2B isa which I have been saving in. I have determined that as I am now ready to buy, it will be most beneficial for me to transfer funds from my Nationwide H2B isa into the Plum LISA. When i requested the transfer through plum directly, they said that…

Santander ISA matured
My santander isa matured at the start of May. I opened a new isa online and transferred the money. They tell me that I should have 'filled out a form' with them and as I didn't, it's classed as new money. I asked for the transfer to be reversed but they they this isn't possible. Is it new money and if it is, can the…

5%+ ISA rates
With ISA fix interest rates currently available in excess of 4.7% and rising, do you think we’ll get back to 5%+ rates this year? I’m looking to lock away £20k using my wife’s allowance, but wondering if I should hang fire seeing as rates don’t look as if they’re going anywhere other than up at the minute. I know that no…

ISA faux pas
I opened an ISA last year with some inheritance money I received. Interest has been paid this month (yippee), but to another savings account I hold in the organisation (boo). I have looked into this and it would seem, that for whatever reason, I nominated another account for the interest to be credited. Maybe I thought…

Trading 212 ISA - cash withdrawal speed, weekends?
Good Morning Even though withdrawals say they can take 2-3* working days, whenever I've requested one, the money has arrived in my nominated account almost instantly. These have, however, been on a weekday. Anyone have experience of requesting a cash withdrawal on a weekend? Is it also instant? *Can't remember exactly what…

Hargreaves Lansdown HL - Cash ISA Transfer out
Just an FYI to anybody thinking of using HL's Active Savings. It took 37 days from my initial online ISA transfer request for the money to arrive at the other bank. Clearly there were 2 banks involved but from talking to both it was HL who were always slow in responding. Secondly, they have paid the last partial monthly…

Trading 212 Verification Nightmare
Having received the Chip email about the interest rate plummeting on my Cash ISA I opened a Trading 212 account. It required verification with a driving license and video of my face. It couldn't auto verify me so manual verification was needed. Some hours later I received an email to say I was now verified on their system…

Trading212 to Moneybox Cash ISA transfer: success story
This is just a brief report on my happy experience transferring a Cash ISA from Trading212 to Moneybox. Since 2024 there have been lots of reports that transfers out of T212 have been a little slow and painful, and not always supported (it was unclear how much this was to do with the receiving institution also). It was a…

ISA transfer from cash ISA (prior year contributions) to Lifetime ISA
Just wondered whether one is allowed to re-purpose prior year easy access cash ISA funds into a Lifetime ISA (max £4k) in the current year, whilst still retaining the full £20k current year allowance to contribute into a different cash / S&S ISA? I specifically want to dump the full £20k allowance into a multi-year fix…

ISA 2026/27
May sound a bit dim but I've opened an ISA in June 2026 (£20k), will I get the same interest rate until June 2027 or will the new £12k allowance in April 2027 make any difference?
