And neither provider supports splitting the ISA allowance with other providers, from a summary I've read here: https://moneyweek.com/personal-finance/savings/isas/multiple-isa-rule-how-it-works ?

That's Moneyweek's conclusion (that a provider's Terms can preclude you from having a Cash ISA with another provider). Don't think that's the conclusion of the majority of the contributors here.

 This is notwithstanding that Coventry BS has yet to implement the new ISA regime. 

I'm not aware of any provider that is supporting the holding of 2 (or more) Cash ISAs with themselves. I'm sure someone must have found one?

I am holding several Cash ISAs with Skipton, all opened in 2023/24 tax year, one funded with new (now old) money, others by ISA transfers.

That's cheating  looking for a provider that has/will allow 2 Cash ISAs to be opened/funded 2024/25.

Some ISA providers have been offering a 'portfolio' approach (allowing you to spread your ISA allowance over different cash ISA accounts with themselves) for quite a while now.

Paragon, Nationwide and Zopa spring to mind and there may be others.

Kent Reliance, too.

And MandS Bank seem to allow the customer to open more than one product.

Even before the changes this week some providers (eg Nationwide) have been using a "portfolio" ISA system, legally just 1 Cash ISA but with multiple products within it.

Try MandS Bank. 

And they do not ask the customer to vow to forsake all others.

So I've got my "your fixed ISA is maturing soon" email from Virgin. Here are the choices .



As I want an easy access cash ISA, and they don't have one at the moment (apart one for current account holders only), bless them they are doing me a favour by allowing me to take advantage of one that is not available @ 0.10 % AER. While I am flattered to be so special I do want to transfer. My question is do I have to wait for the maturity date to transfer, and hence loose money, or is there some rule/law that allows me to transfer now.

Transfers I've done in the past have given the option to avoid penalty and have waited until the current fixed term ends before transferring.

Thanks, I've checked with Zopa and they offer that. However Zopa want the account number for the transfer but that will change at some point at maturity. Does giving Zopa instructions in advance have any benefit or should I wait till after maturity to avoid any confusion.

Surprised the EA is so low as VM have a Flexible EA exclusive currently at 4.76% AER. But you do need to have a VM current account.
