Cash ISAs: The Best Currently Available List

adindas

I subscribed to Skipton Regular Saver Account on November Last year where the interest rate was still 5%. But I understand that the interest is variable so could go down. Did anyone know the current interest rate?

I am trying to find it from their website, but cannot find this info.

Excellent thank you.
Happy to hear that it is still 5%

Hey Kazza, Barclays Golden ISA (issue 3) is 2.22% AFAIK

Great job BTW.

EDIT: rate was 3.25% if opened before 15th May and 2.22% thereafter.

Sorry to bump...

MY Halifax online banking shows
ISA Saver Direct

and a rate of only 0.5%. The transfer is in there but not 'available' til 24th May.

Should I sit tight and the account will sort itself out?

Have you asked for it to be redesignated to an ISA Direct Reward? Or a Fixed Rate ISA? Or not asked anything?

If so, then when did you make the request?

Several of us have had spurious amounts shown in the 'balance remaining to subscribe in the current tax year' section after transfer, which has sorted itself out after a few days but my account still showed as an ISA Direct Reward 4 straight away.

Personally, I'd contact them sooner, rather than later regarding the type of ISA shown.

I would give them a ring. I did a transfer late March ish and it took around 3 weeks from a transfer from Satander and it says on mine ISA DIRECT REWARD 4

To be honest it wouldn't have occurred to me to redesignate anything - I applied for the reward account. Why would they set me up with something different?

Hope it's not wrong... will also have to check O/H's. The halifax banking login causes me to slightly lose the will to live

The Reward current account is separate from the ISA.

To get the 3/3.2% ISA, just put your account details in to https://www.halifax.co.uk/isaupgrade.

It may take a few weeks before the higher rate shows up on internet banking, but you'll still be earning the higher rate from the date that you fill in the online form.
