Can anyone shed light on this please?

Anyone can read post #751 above, which confirms that one may not do this (in terms of paying new money into both in the same tax year), although in subsequent posts it's clarified that if you transfer one into the other before the end of the tax year then it's unlikely to be an issue if this is just a temporary situation....

My partner is 37 and has never owned a home. He's just moved in with me (to the house I own with a mortgage) and I'm wondering whether if he gets a LISA he can use it for if we want to re-mortgage together?

This came up in another thread recently and the view was that a LISA wouldn't be applicable just for a simple straightforward remortgage, but only for a full property sale/purchase process (i.e. involving conveyancers/solicitors).

I recently sent the paper work off to transfer my Barclays H2B into my new Skipton ISA.

The money has been transferred today but it's left my Barclays H2B ISA overdrawn.

what should I do? Or will this get corrected automatically?

I suspect the transfer will have included accrued closing interest that won't have been credited to the account yet, does the amount involved suggest that? If this is the case, then it should self-correct....

Ye it does, I presumed that what it was anyway, mainly wanted to know if it would self correct

Barclays being strange with closing interest. I had the same. It disappeared from my online banking the following day, but presume it will be corrected and the closing statement will be correct!

Skipton H2B ISA Transfer from Barclays was completed today. Just waiting for Nutmeg now, which takes longer as it's S&S.

Nutmeg dashboard shows a pending withdrawal of £0.00! I'm hoping they only transfer my LISA, which is what I've requested on the form and via PM - as I have an ordinary savings account open for £170 cashback. If they transfer that I'll lose the cashback :mad:

£170 cashback?! Is that a current/savings account incentive?! Not seen that one on MSE ... and I keep a close eye on things !

All sorted, H2B ISA fully closed today, didn't need to do anything about going overdrawn from interest.
