    Do you have a blue and red on-line banking card for the non-ISA savings account? This is different to a debit card, and I would expect it to work (along with a card reader) for all your online accounts.

    Using that card, you can link a non-NatWest account to your accounts.


    Thinking about it, I might possibly have a card for that one, I'll search around whenI get home later. Would it work with a Barclays card reader as I know I definitely don't have a NatWest one?

    Probably. I interchangeably use my Nationwide and NatWest cards and readers.

    Is the money all the money for deposit? If so, it might be easier paying the solicitor by CHAPS anyway as it will go through the same day and definitely get to them.

    Good point, I hadn't thought of that.

    I mean the other savings account you had to open when you opened the e-ISA, what is that one called?

    Oh sorry, it's an E-Savings account

    Looking at the Natwest web-site for their eSavings account, it looks as if you should already have a card reader for that account.

    How do I make withdrawals?

    Simply make an electronic payment from your e-Savings account to any other UK bank account. To ensure your funds remain safe, you will need to use your card reader.

    And I should have had a card reader for mine. Why didn't I?

    I don't have an account with NatWest so can't say for certain. With another bank, though, I had to make a separate request for the reader once the account was set up. Perhaps something similar here?
