    Halifax may be.

    Perhaps visit websites of banks + bdg societies, seeing who is still promoting ISAs for current tax yr.

    Hope this helps...?

    Hi - please help!!

    I opened a FD ISA on the 30th March but only with 500 as that was all i had in my FD account and i didn't want them to stop applications. I have now transferred the remaining 2500 into my FD account, planning to add it in. On the screen it said it would be open within 48hours - which it has been but the ISA is not showing up on internet banking? Would it just show up on the main page? What should I do? I don't think it is open as I now have 3000 in the FD current account. (but the ISA will only open with a lump sum of 500?)

    Phone them up and ask. An ISA will not be classed as being opened until a valid deposit is placed in the ISA.
