Barclays Golden ISA Issue 3 - Exit Fee or Notice Period?

Options
I've spent half an hour scouring the Barclays site, but I can't find out whether there is an fee for transferring this ISA to another provider, nor whether any notice period is required for such a transfer.

Does anyone know?

(Looking to transfer to a NatWest e-ISA, if it makes any difference).

  • Just transferred mine and there was no penalty.

    No penalty or fee. It was an instant access account. Transfer away :p

    Thanks both.

    And just to confirm, because I'm paranoid: I can open two ISAs this year, provided I only fund ONE of them with new money, and transfer old ISA money into the other one?

    Yes you can do that (not the paranoid bit) :eek:

    Or if you see an ISA you like that allows transfers in, you could just open one into which you pay your 'new money' and transfer your 'old money'

    I was going to complicate it by saying you could open 22 if you want, but in view of your paranoia, I won't :D

    Thanks badger - I'm now much less paranoid :j

    New money is heading for a Nationwide Flexclusive, old money is heading for NatWest e-ISA.
