Revolut stocks and shares help.

Hello. 

I have been buying stock on the revolut app in US dollars. When I come to sell these, will I have to pay tax on the capital gains? Is there a way once I sell I can put the money once exchanged back to GBP into an isa? I am a newbie to buying stocks but I want to do everything correctly and quite enjoying the experience so far. Any help would be appreciated

Thanks

    Only if you exceed the annual capital gains tax allowance. 

    You will incur currency exchange fees when buying and selling overseas shares.

    REVOLUT - has anyone had problems with Revolut blocking access to funds? My account has been blocked since August with no access to funds.
