I'm contemplating transferring my Isa from the Principality Easy  access 4.2%var currently to RBS fixed 4.2%.
Am I correct  that principality  only use paper forms to transfer into them, so how does it work when transferring out?
How do l go about  transferring  to RBS  via the app.  I have a current account with them.
I don't have a printer, so is the transferring  form part of the application process?

Thanks

    If you are transferring from Principality to Nationwide then you only need to contact Nationwide. You shouldn't need to communicate with the bank you are transferring from. 

    You can open a Nationwide ISA online, no need to print out an application form. When you give them the details of the ISA you are transferring out of they should take care of the rest.
