    I currently have £85k in a standard cash
    ISA with Coventry on 1.85%
    I have opened a new one year fixed ISA with Coventry at 3.95%
    I still have £20k to invest in an ISA for this year
    Making a total of £105000 in total 
    I'm thinking of doing following
    Transfer £52500 into the new ISA from my current ISA 
    Open another ISA in December with another Bank when interest rates get even higher

    Or just transfer the £85k into my new ISA
    And open a new ISA with
    £20 k in Dec
    I may be wrong, are part transfers allowed? I'm under the impression that the whole ISA would have to be transferred. 

    Good to know that the interest rates will be even higher in December. Do you have the jackpot numbers for the next Euro Millions Lotto draw please?
    Oh how we laughed at your sublime joke 

    It is most likely that interest rates will go up in December if not before

    And yes
    Part transfers are allowed but need to be done at branch or by phone 
    Seems you're easily amused then. Do you not get out much?
    Lighten up
    No need to get rude

    Recently a part transfer to Coventry was completed for me, which I arranged entirely online. Why do you think it has to be done at branch or by phone?

    The accounts are both with Coventry
    It says part transfers not allowed online
  • I’ll be waiting for other providers to release a higher rate fixed isa.

    And you did say:-
    I might just transfer the full £85k.

    So you're not actually doing a part transfer.

    Decided to go for a part transfer keeping some back to use with a new ISA at hopefully a higher rate in Dec
