Is there any way to upgrade with Santander without calling? Have a problem...

Macc - call up & upgrade your ISA to a 1yr fixed if thats what you want. Your sort code & account number will stay the same, but it'll become a 1yr fixed account instead.

Cheers, that'll save a bit of time then didn't realise it was as simple as that.

Don't under any circumstances close your existing ISA if you don't require the funds. You need to transfer it to the new ISA to retain the tax free status.

I just meant close it once the money had been transferred out of it and into the new one.

Or are there any benefits to leaving an ISA acc with a £0.00 balance open?

Sorry I misread your earlier post. I thought you said that all you needed to do was close the existing ISA, but I see that is not what you said at all. I missed the all important "no".

In my experience the old ISA is automatically closed once the funds are transferred out.
