    Transferring 08 sort code Virgin ISA to Zopa.
    Isa transfer accepted by Virgin on day 6
    Transfer completed at 19:30 hrs on day 9
    Interest credited by Virgin up to and including day 8
    Not sure if I've lost a days interest yet, could be faster but smooth enough.



    How do you know when the transfer was accepted by Virgin?
     
    I requested a transfer for my 08 sort code Virgin ISA to Zopa on the 3rd May. Have heard zilch from either party so far.

    I messaged them to ask them if there was any progress and they replied within a couple of hours. Heard nothing apart from that. I've got my days mixed up. I requested on the 29'th April, transfer complete on 13'th May. You are 4 days after me if all goes the same.

    I opened one of these a couple of hours ago, and I've already encountered a couple of oddities with this, one quite perplexing.  My first name for official documents is obviously my given name, however, I always go by a family "pet" name, quite different from my given name.  I had to go on a live chat to query something, and they've picked up, somehow or other, on my pet name!  I haven't mentioned it anywhere during the application process and it's not on any documents I uploaded.  I'm worried now.

    The other issue is that I'm trying to arrange a transfer in from YBS, and they'll only permit sort code and account number, and the last time I used those (to somewhere else), the transfer in failed until I used the roll number instead.  Not very promising start, as I can't get any sense out of CS.

    Can’t seem to deposit using debit card either (which you can with the S&S one up to £2k), they either want to open banking or want your account and sort code

    You cannot transfer from a Trading 212 S&S ISA to their cash ISA. They don’t allow internal transfers, only external ones are allowed in or out.

    Edit, This information is incorrect as per the below posts.

    Not true I think. Go to "Manage funds" then the "move funds" option. I managed to move £1k and I assume this counts as a "transfer".

    Thank you for your help. I was given that duff information from their chat bot. I have now managed to transfer some money from the S&S ISA to the cash ISA
