    Could be Leeds BS fault not Natwest's as Leeds BS have been overwhelmed by isa applications and have a backlog.

    Clearly I spoke too soon as my cheque was paid in today. Still no sign of my transfers but at least it means my application got there :).

    edit: whilst the cheque has cleared and is showing on the Leeds side it's not actually been withdrawn from my bank yet. Time to leave the country :o.

    My account is now all set up and running, initial cheque has been showing for a while (although as above it hasn't left the other bank yet) however my transfer still hasn't completed despite my old ISA having been closed for over a week now.
  • Finally the £150 has finally left my old ISA, hopefully on it's way to my new Leeds ISA!

    My ISA transfer still hasn't gone through. Had a letter off my old provider to say the money left my account on April 16th....Leeds still showing as awaiting completion though :(
    It's taken me a lifetime to start looking after my money and now I'm addicted to doing it! :cool2:

    Similar story here-old ISA closed but Leeds account still saying awaiting funds. I'll give them until Monday before ringing them.

    Can anyone who only requested a part transfer AND has received a letter confirming the transfer is in progress, confirm that their letter makes no reference to how much is being transferred? i.e. i am concerned that LBS do not close my other ISA.

    Thanks in advance

    Their letter does give the impression that they are transferring the whole ISA. No figure is given just the bank and account number. However, I have been keeping an eye on my Nationwide ISA and only the £100 I asked to be transferred, has been transferred, so don't worry. Taking an awful long time to show in Leeds ISA though, thank goodness it is only £100.

    I haven't kept the letter but only £100 disappeared from my Nationwide ISA.

    As yet, it has not been credited to my Leeds account, which is probably due to the fact that the transfers happened by cheque.

    However, Leeds should be paying interest from the day the money left Nationwide. Will I check that they do? May be.

    I kept the letter it states

    When we receive the cheque(s) from your current ISA provider(s) we will ensure that is added to your account dated the day we receive it, even if we process it after that date.

    Just checked again (third time today i.e. once around 08:00hrs, once just after lunch and just now) and the my NW ISA now has £100 less available balance.

    Thanks to Innovate and TypistRetired for the reassurance.
