    I can't help but laugh at this thread....

    You can open a tax haven ISA for a year then transfer it elsewhere.


    :rotfl: Laugh, I nearly SPLIT my sides!!!

    Barclays DO NOT allow Transfers from One ISA IN TO THEIR TAX HAVEN ACCOUNT!!!

    A bit BACKWARDS if you ask me:rolleyes:

    So the OP would have to withdraw his cash from one ISA and then pay it in to a new Tax Haven one (IF he was so foolish to open one!!!)


    :cool:

    Read it again my silly fool. I said open a Tax Haven One now then transfer it ELSEWHERE, into DIFFERENT ISA.

    Where did I state transfer INTO the tax haven ISA?

    Thanks for being gentle! I'll sort out an account when the queues go down!


    Barclays previous ISA offering was withdrawn towards the end of May 2007.;)

    Fixed Rate ISAs are more likely to go down than up. ;)

    For reasonable sums of money, making a decision sooner than later would be prudent IMO. ;)
