If flexibility is important to you, then check each product terms carefully as some of the higher paying Cash ISAs are not flexible.

This is the most important feature for me, for how I wish to use my 25/26 ISA anyway.

Opened Momument Bank's 4.76% one as it is exactly that, and has a 30 day window for first payment, so will fund next Monday

Unfortunately for me needs £10,000 balance   Maybe one day.

Edit: The Zopa Smar ISA 5.01% offer has now disappeared from moneyfacts and also is no longer available in my app. I can only see now an option for 3.8%

Thanks for that. Was hoping that Zopa would give another boost for existing customers, but does not appear to be the case. Transfer out now in progress.

They still say transfers coming soon early in the new year and it's now April....

Yes, Monument cash ISA @4.76% is a good rate and flexible but the £10,000 balance is a downer. You have to keep a minimum balance of £10,000, so if you open it with £15,000 only £5000 of that is flexible and can be withdrawn.

It also does not allow transfers in yet and I want to keep things simple with not too many ISA accounts. I need a home for my Virgin Exclusive fixed ISA which goes to an easy access ISA tomorrow at a rate of 4.51% until May19 when the rate drops to 4.11%.

I hope the new cash ISA season brings some better rates from established players as I am not eligible for most of the new fintech company offerings. Even if I was eligible I am not a fan of their opening short term bonus rates which means you may well have to transfer out when the bonus ends.

Plum is now 5.45% for three months.
Chip is now 5.55% for three months.

How long is this rate-war likely to last? pre/post 6th April? into the first few weeks of the 25/26 tax year?

No good for those of us who already have one though.

Just opened the Moneybox Cash ISA @ 5.39% and see it is now up to 5.56%.

I've put in my request already to transfer my existing ISA from elsewhere.

Has in a similar situation and had any luck getting them to increase the rate whilst still at a £0.00 balance ?
