    Thanks Mabel, I've always been a bit self depricating... will keep a tally of how many I apply for before I get one ;). I think you can have an ISA regardless of what else you have Jen.

    ask on the savings board ISA section jen- they are great on there.

    You dont have to put anything regular into a ordinary cash ISA amy, mine is alliance and Leicester coz thats who my current account is with. None on quidco unfortunately ( apart from l&g which is a stocks and shares one)

    just phone barcley and i have a isa tax haven opened it before april so i can open another isa this year but he says as i have paid my allocation for this year i can't pay it into a isa
    so i need a high interest savings account till april when i can pay in again any ideas on a high interest saver?

    do you think i will get a cheque from my tax or do you think he got it wrong?
