    Yes, any interest will be added at closure and transferred.
    You must get new provider to do the transfer to maintain ISA status.
    It's expected to be an interesr rate cut today, so offers may change.

    Yes, in most cases the interest is credited on transfer and moves with the capital in the ISA wrapper.

    Not all companies pay their headline rate on transfers in, check carefully.

    As the base rate is likely to be reduced today keep a careful eye for changes in ISA rates.
