    It might need manual intervention, and it is the weekend. I only applied yesterday.
    Yeah I’d see what happens tomorrow. I also had a code posted to me to authenticate the account.

    Just did another transfer into Vida, this time from Monument and it’s been completed in 4 working days. Super quick!

    They have a 1yr FR ISA at 4.31% can fund within 21 days but you can't open it with new money if you/ve already subscribed to an ISA with another provider.  You can transfer in an existing CASH ISA or SS ISA but not invest new money. Unless you tell porkies when they ask where the money is coming from which I don't feel comfortable doing.
