ISA from previous tax year, automatic sub?

Hi guys, quick question.

Opened an ISA last tax year and still have an amount in it. The bonus interest lasts until around September.

Since April I've put in about £1200 in to the same account.
Does this mean I've automatically got a subscription to an ISA this tax year? Is it going to stop me from transferring to another ISA provider when the bonus interest runs out in September?

Cheers

    You have answered that yourself: "Since April I've put in about £1200 in to the same account." - so assuming that was 6th April onwards, you have.

    No.

    Cheers. Just saw that if I transfer the whole amount from this years ISA sub I can move elsewhere (just not part of it).
