    In addition to eskbanker's question, did you empty your other cash ISA before or after you paid £200 into your HTB ISA?
  • Thanks for all the advice, I actually spoke with an advisor from Halifax  who was able to fully  explain my situation and what to do.

    Always looking for tips to save.

    Hopefully you've been given the correct information. Banks don't have a very good track record when it comes to advising on ISAs.

    Nationwide is currently advising that it takes up to 3 days to close my ISA.
    I instructed them Tuesday early morning and the whole amount inc interest accrued was transferred into my current account 
    Friday lunchtime. Consequently my wife opted to transfer everything less £1 and got her money immediately.
    So she still have an ISA with £1 and accrued interest (not much as Interest was last paid in March)
