My very first ISA

Hello everyone,
I've been browsing the site on and off for a few weeks now and I've found a wealth (ho-ho!) of useful information that's helped me bring the cost of my bi-weekly shop right down!
Today I finally got the finger out and opened an e-Saver Account (Issue 2) [5.06% Net] with Birmingham Midshires, so I'm quite happy about that - Even more so that I can deal with it all online; being the kind of work hard / sleep hard guy that I am I'm never in the mood for going to my branch and I dislike telephone calls, so it suited me to a 'T'.
I apologise if the post isn't exactly ... the kind of relevance expected, so if I'm in the wrong location feel free to give me a pat on the head and send me on my way!
I blame my new found employment with the RBS to be perfectly honest, I never used to give a monkeys about my money! Oh, what a fool I was.

The product that you've opened, certainly doesn't appear to match your post title, as far as I'm aware, the BM e-Saver is a taxable account, not a tax free ISA.0

Looks like I should have spent more time doing my homework and less time playing with frogs in ponds. Ah well, live and learn they say.
Thank you for pointing that out though Baldur![strike]Debt: £0.00[/strike]
