[*]Nationwide BS [Regular Saver] ISA - 2.33%
Minimum deposit: £1. Min - Max monthly deposit: £1 - £1,250.
Operated via: Branch or Internet.
Notes: Fixed until 31/03/2015. Following maturity, balance will be transferred into the Nationwide Instant Saver ISA (currently paying 1.50%). Transfers in are not permitted.

I cannot find this ISA on Nationwide's website. Has it closed to new applications?

Thanks,

I can't see it any more either. Looks like it's been withdrawn. .

Seems odd that you didn't hear anything at all. Did you get any on-screen acknowledgement of your application? Could be that you have a problem with your browser.

Yeah I got the standard "thanks for submitting your application, we'll contact you shortly" messages.

Just a heads-up. Have just been told that Newcastle BS are launching a 2.85% 5-year fixed Isa - branded Issue 103.

But no details on their website yet (Issues 101 and 102 are there, but not 103), so don't know about transfers in or about withdrawal penalties yet.

Edited to add: Issue 103 is now listed on their website (http://www.newcastle.co.uk/savings/cash-isa.aspx.

Interest is 2.85% - fixed 5 years, penalty for early withdrawal is one year's interest. Can be managed online. Transfers in seem to be supported.

Yorkshire Building Society has just launched a 1 year fixed rate isa at 2%.

This can be opened with £100 and transfers in are allowed.

It's also worth mentioning that there is a monthly interest option with the 5 year account.

Question being, is 2.85% enough for a 5 year fix?

It's no where near high enough for me personally IMHO for that length of time given the potential for future rate rises.

I'm just transferring my Newcastle Building Society ISA which has matured from a 5% 5 year fix (those were the days!) to 0.5%. I'm parking it into the YBS 2% 1 year fix mentioned above as that seems a good rate over a short period of time.

I'm not putting any new money into that though this year but putting more into in my S&S ISA (after maxing out Santander/Lloyds Current A/cs.)

More or less the same as my lump sum is now in sander Isa at 2.3% with a back of an instant Isa with Lloyds at 1.5% the remaining money in various current accounts TSB, Lloyds Nationwide giving 4/5%. So no new money is any ISA this year

Hi there - just a bit of a type on the Punjab 3 yr - think it should be 2.3% rather than 2.4%
