Transferring an ISA into Zopa?
Hi guys, please excuse my lack of knowledge, I opened a Zopa easy access ISA, but I can't see how/where the option of transferring my old ISA into my new Zopa ISA is? Am I missing something obvious, I tried the 'chat' people, but they said ring on Monday, do I need to actually ring a 'human' to request a transfer or is it…

Basic ISA question, can I top up an existing account now we're in a new year?
I've just opened a Chip easy access ISA account to put £20k in, as it's one of the top payers and I prefer monthly interest and their app is simple. I have a few existing Virgin ISA's with higher rates (one 5.32%, one 5.47%). The former rate expires July 24, the latter September 24. I've just realised, am I able to add to…

Tax Thresholds - Flexible?
Hi everyone, hope someone can help me on a Tax Allowance and Threshold query. I ask this as a lot of information I seek on this matter states that I get taxed at 20% on the first £37700 over my PTA.

Have I left it too late?
When Virgin pulled their 5.25% on the day I opened my current account I started looking elsewhere and stalled until today! I was about to dump £20K in a Paragon 1 year fixed @ 4.9% but have seen in their ts & cs it can take 15 business days for funds to go in. So my question is, can I open and fund an ISA same day with…

JISA transfer to Kid's savings account
Hi I'm unsure what best to do; our son is 12 and has a jisa with halifax paying 3.2% currently with 4k in it. I've read there perhaps isnt much advantage in an isa over a kids savings account which may pay more interest. I understand the money is locked away until he is 18 but not sure thats offering much of a benefit if a…

MONEYBOX Question
Hi. I put my 2023/4 allowance in to a MONEYBOX easy access ISA in October. I now wish to close this account but although the balance now shows as £20,500 it says I can only withdraw the initial £20,000. Does that mean I can't get the intertest until October and will have to leave the account open?

Santander ISA -> Nutmeg - 120 Days' Interest Charge
Hi, I have a Santander Cash ISA for which interest has now been paid at around 5% for the past year. The rate is now 1.2% so I'd like to transfer them to another provider.

Failed Santander ISA transfer
I had an email from my new provider to say the cash ISA transfer had failed due to "lack of funds." I phoned Santander but they parroted the same line. How can a complete transfer fail due to lack of funds? This matter is now with their back office team. I'm disappointed Santander didn't use some initiative and contact me…

2 x ISA's
My daughter was asking about ISAs recently and I thought I advised her correctly. She opened one with Virgin and made a deposit for 2023/24 tax year but it was fixed and the Virgin terms only allowed her to add more funds within 30 days which she didnt. Due to this she did open another with the Post Office and made a…

Our 17 year old has a (adult) cash isa. The rule change this tax year means he won't be able to open a new one, but can he still fund the one that's open? We've been looking for ages bit can't find a definitive answer. A link would be good if possible Thanks in advance

Stocks & Share ISA your shares are subject of Take Over and thus Forcibly Sold
With Stock & Share ISA I take it that dividends are paid
into that ISA, However If the shares you hold in your ISA say £20k worth are
subject to a forced sell (such as a company or more likely Utility has been
taken over). Would the money received for the shares be paid into the ISA
and would be treated as tax free? As it…
