Opening two ISAs in one year?

suiko

I know I can only open one ISA in a tax year, but I opened one by mistake ten days ago. It doesn't have any money in it. Am I allowed to close it and open a different one?

If it's got no money in it, just forget it.

Thanks - so there's no problem in opening another?

No. You can open as many as you like with £0 in.

Thanks. I made a mistake with this once before and the whole thing got closed down at the end of the tax year, so didn't want to make the mistake again.
