Hi all,
Is it OK to open a few different isa accounts with different providers in the same year, so's to have different options etc, as long as you don't actually fund more than one with new money in the same tax year?
Also, with isa accounts from previous years, you can transfer them into a new one that you fund this year, but you can also open a new one just to transfer into (not to actually fund) ? I hope this makes some sense!

You can open as many as you like as long as you only fund one cash ISA. Not sure why you would want to though?Also, with isa accounts from previous years, you can transfer them into a new one that you fund this year, but you can also open a new one just to transfer into (not to actually fund) ?Yes, you can open a new cash ISA and transfer-in previous years' subscriptions. You can also fund this ISA if you want with this year's subscription as long as that's the only cash ISA you subscribe (add new money) to this year.
