Why is Newcastle BS not listed on most Comparison Sites for ISA?

Yup, the max is 3.4%. This is variable though.
Sorry, don't know what FD's deal is and can't check easily.

I find it slightly confusing too. I'd like to know if the interest with bonus (3.4%) is paid on the entire ISA amount (including the ISAs you transfer in) or just on the regular contributions part. If it's the former, than it's a really good deal, if you are willing to make 9 regular monthly contibutions of at least £100. And there's no notice or penalty for withdrawal too!

According to their web page, the bonus would seem to apply to transfers-in as well as regular deposits.

Transfer your ISAs and benefit from this attractive rate

The Balance Builder ISA also allows you to transfer all your other ISAs held elsewhere so all your ISAs can benefit from this highly competitive rate, as long as a minimum of nine Monthly Payments are made before Account Anniversary.

That's how I interpret it, anyhow.

Thanks, I think I missed that. It seems clear enough! I'm going to apply tomorrow!

I just love to see this kind of gumption. Well done!
