Does anyone know if Kent Reliance has announced any rate reductions not reflected yet?

Thinking of opening their Easy Access ISA at 4.56%. My Virgin fix comes to an end on the 31st March and I am thinking to split my funds and put some into a Virgin Easy Access Cash ISA Exclusive Issue 2 as it is flexible and only marginally lower at 4.51% and the remaining into Kent Reliance for the slightly higher rate (makes a little difference on higher sums).

However, there is no point opening and instructing a transfer when a rate cut has already been announced by them to come into force later this month. I know, there is BOE meeting later this month as well.

Thoughts?

Kent Reliance have brought out (non ISA) easy access savings account issue 77 yesterday (4.55% AER) to replace issue 76 (4.56% AER). Don't appear to be obviously reducing the rate on issue 76.

So perhaps it looks like the easy access ISA issue 55, at 4.56% AER will be maintained for the time being, rather than there being an imminent cut in rate due because of the recent base rate fall. I have this issue 55 ISA and I've had no notification of a drop.

I see that Principality now do electronic ISA transfers.  I requested a partial transfer from Principality to Skipton on Tuesday, the money has just arrived in my Skipton account.  Very impressed 🙂

Oak North bouncing back with a 1 year fix at 4.45% 

Fingers crossed for a little boost in rates before the end of the tax year.

Transfer requested online at Virgin Money ISA website to move my ISA from West Brom BS. Requested 5th March and funds transferred and all completed today. 2 days is not bad going and impressed again with how well Virgin handled everything.

Do Charter process Isa transfers electronically or are they old school and require cheques?

I want to open their easy access Isa but have had so much trouble in the past with cheque transfers that I avoid them at all costs.
