    You can put up to £5,640 into it before 6th April 2013, in as many payments as you like.

    You cannot put anything else into it afterwards.

    According to their website, you cannot make payments into the ISA after 5th April 2013. However, as you can see, someone claimed they said something different on the phone. So I suggest you call them and ask.
