    I requested mine online on April 7 (last Thursday) and the transfer has been completed with value date April 11, 2nd working day after request. That's well impressive.

    Well, if you read the terms and conditions that you liked to, you will get your answer. The written T&Cs will be worth more than any verbal information.

    Unless it's an HTB or S&S ISA, you can do it much simpler and faster: just complete and submit the online transfer request.

    Yes thanks for pointing out that Nationwide Flexclusive accepts S&S ISAs into a Cash ISA, and you have to use the transfer pack, not online.
    Virgin Money Defined Access e-ISA currently 1.3% is the only other I can see with an interest rate at 1% pa or higher accepting a S&S transfer in http://uk.virginmoney.com/virgin/savings/learn/isas/transfer-your-isa/

    Are there any others, do you know?

    It might be easier to list the providers who accept transfers from cash ISAs, but not S&S ISAs. I'd start the list, but I'm not aware of any.

    Mine is now open - thanks to the Brentwood branch.

    Surprised it's shutting so soon - last year it lasted two weeks whereas this is only 10 days.

    It's obviously popular - maybe us Essex and Herts folk just love flashing the cash! Or have they been promoting it on Towie - the Brentwood branch is close to all their celeb hangouts.

    Thanks Nessie23
    My application is now in the post .. when I spoke to Saffron Head Office they confirmed it will be pulled tomorrow but applications will still be accepted provided they are received by Thursday 21st April. An application form can be downloaded from the Saffron Website.

    Hope it goes as well for you as it did for me from HSBC to TSB - 3 working days. Needless to say I was rather impressed.


    Not quite as speedy as yours, but much quicker than the old days.

    I applied online 10th April and the transferred amount was showing in Nationwide on 15th:)

    I wonder howmuch Interest people are currently receiving on their NW Flexclusive ISA. Ijust check my online Banking, it is stated 1.5%. In the meanwhile I understandthat the interest has dropped to 1.3%. I have been having this Flexclusive ISAsince 2013 (?)

    The next interestpayment is 30 September 2016.

    I could callthem but just want to get a better understanding before calling them,especially from people who also have this product. Will I receive 1.3% or 1.5% interest?

    Thanks

    It varies depending on the Issue Number.
