Goodbye First Direct ISA

Hi Guys,

Here are the new first direct e-ISA rates applicable from the 6th of April 12 to all e-ISA accounts, unfortunately, for me it is definitely bye-bye, as I can find a better rate easily, even on £40k+ savings. For new ISA savers, IMHO it would be better to keep their savings in a non-ISA account than doing it with first direct e-ISA.
