    Can you please clarify what you mean by this.  Ignoring possible gov. changes to Cash ISA rules, do you mean you can add another 20k to the ISA every year for example and those deposits will receive 4.17%?

    Yes, that's right - you can add your ISA allowance for each tax year until the fixed period ends.
