Any cashback/incentive for A&L Cash ISA? (I know the rate is good!)

May be cheeky but if you don't ask ...

A&L Cash ISA offers 5.2% at the moment which is an excellent rate. As they are known for offering cash to sign up for current accounts, and their current accounts are offered on most of the cashback sites, has anyone seen any extra incentives (beyond the market leading rate) to sign up with/transfer cash ISAs to them?

Many thanks

    No, but if you were with First Direct as the previous best buy at 5.5% then A&L's status as top payer should be sufficient incentive for you to move.

    I have transferred my ISA (5.2%) and my current account (5% if you earn £1000+ per month) as A&L are top payers in both at present. I was recommended and have recommended to a friend so that's an extra £100 on top too.

    5.15% on savings is a good deal, better than the regular saver 10% rate if you have a lump sum - and certainly more convenient if you don't want to commit to saving a regular amount each month.
