Your current provider may offer a better rate that they can move you over too. Alternatively, find the ISA with the best rate (and most suited to your needs) that allows transfers in, and transfer over.
Don't withdraw the money and redeposit though, as that would take it out of the ISA wrapper and then count as new money. You need to get the new ISA provider to request the transfer from the previous provider.
The sticky threads on the ISA board may help further.0 -

You don't need £11k to use a S&S ISA, you can start one with as little as £50 per month.
All depends what other savings you have and when you need the money.Remember the saying: if it looks too good to be true it almost certainly is.0
