First Direct isa finishing

I will have on the 1st Nov 2009 finished my regular saving isa with Fd, I have made inquires with another bank who are giving a better rate than the one FD will put me into after 1st Nov but because I have been paying since April 2009 up to an amount of £1800 they say that because of this I cannot put the full (£5100 i`m 68) in, only the remaining £3300. I`m confused and would appreciate any advice, thanks

You can only put £5100 into your ISA between April 2009-April 2010, so if you have already used £1800 then you can only put in an additional £3300.
You could leave the £1800 where it is or transfer it to the new account.
I'm sure they mean in addition.0 -
The OP cannot do this, as (s)he has subscribed to the Cash ISA in the current tax year - so the full current year's contributions MUST be transferred to the new ISA provider, as any remaining allowance (the £3,300) can then be subscribed.You could leave the £1800 where it is or transfer it to the new account.0
