Hi all,

I’m unable to find a clear answer on the Virgin website.  

After the initial 30 days can you transfer other ISAs into the account as they mature elsewhere? 

Thanks.

I opened a Lloyds 4.95% ISA 4 days ago but haven't deposited any money as I haven't received my login details in the post yet. I see that Charter Savings bank has gone up to 5.2% now, am I stuck with Lloyds because you can only open one ISA in a tax year, or could I open a new Charter Savings account and just not deposit money in the Lloyds account?

How many years is the Charter ISA, 3 years ?.
‘If so I would opt for the Virgin money ISA, 5.2% for 3 years but only 120 day penalty to exit the ISA

I don't think so. You can only pay money in during the first 30 days. I believe the 'transfer an ISA into this account' link disappears after 30 days

Charter don't do anything longer than a 2 year ISA.

Thank you! Perhaps I missed their e-mail but this is great news. I won't need to look at doing a transfer unless others up their rates a fair bit more.

Kent Reliance - attractive 1yr fixed rate as can top-up throughout the year. 

2yr Fixed Rate ISA: 5.12%
1yr Fixed Rate ISA: 5.10%

Shame I forgot about this when I deposited my final chuck of ISA money into my original 1yr fix at more than 1% lower … doh

You can't initiate a transfer. But if you already filled in a transfer form and they received it within 30 days, then the transfer can be go into the account past that past that which is what happened to me.
