                    I have today opened a Junior ISA for my daughter.
I have received conflicting views on the Junior ISA from the Halifax Building Society from different staff!!!
I just wondered whether you can transfer a Junior ISA like you can an adult one? When I telephoned the Halifax, one member said that I could transfer, but when I went into the Branch today, the staff there said no!
Also, in the branch, the staff member said I had access to it when the child reaches 18 years, but another member said no! Again, from doing my research, I believe the Junior ISA is transferred to an adult ISA when the child reaches 18 years, so obviously I would not be able to access it, unless anyone knows otherwise?
Please help!
