    A 4% regular saver that's available in a tiny geographical area

    Saffon B.S had no such limit. I live hundreds of miles away.

    Apologies - I had missed the update on this thread that regular savers (n)ISAs should be left off here.

    .

    I'm not aware of any limited period on my S&S ISA. I've been paying in without problems for some considerable time.

    The context of this thread is mini cash ISAs. Has the thread title changed as well as the the fact we're no longer allowed to discuss Regular Saver ISAs within in too?

    As I said, am just a thickie - I rely on clever people like you to keep me on the straight and narrow.

    Mini cash ISAs disappeared in around 2008 so thread is pretty of out of date anyway.

    Can't see any reason not to discuss any method of putting money into an ISA though.

    I bet you'll be eating a magic mushroom flavoured hat when at least a couple of institutions release details of some 'decent' regular saver type of cash ISAs in a few weeks.

    Up for that bet?
    Do you mean like the Nationwide 2.5% regular saver NISA? Or the hidden Clydesdale 5 year Fixed rate issue 28 @ 2.7%?


    Or better than those?

    Those aren't great!

    Scroll up on my post on last years Regular Saver offers (even though we're not allowed to talk about them).

    If I remember correctly these were advertised before the budget i.e. when the ISA limit was close to tripled. These institutions did stick with the same rate though even after this announcement.

    Be nice if something similar was offered again.

    Theyre not great - correct. But other than niche products like Saffron existing customers, they ain't getting much better any time soon.

    I remember the same arguments last year and two institutions came up with nisa regular savers at 4%.

    At £1250 per month they suited me perfectly.

    Mind you am a bit of a thicky.
    I don't consider 4% to be a very good rate for a regular saver account.

    Dunno. Its the offer for 5 year maturity ISAs. Give them a call, they may allow new money or transfers.
