    That doesn't stop you transferring your funds out of the account though. The ISA just needs to be left open to receive final interest and bonus at the end of the month. The final bonus will not be forfeit unless you close or transfer out within the bonus period.

    Plum T&Cs are loaded with pitfalls. The easiest to avoid them is to simply avoid Plum. It’s what I have done.

    This part I've highlighted is incorrect.

    The T&Cs are not 100% clear on the matter, so I transferred all but £100 and received the interest at the start of this month as expected. I'm in the process of transferring the remainder.
