ISA from different years in one pot
I have three ISAs with one bank, Zopa. One matured and went to instant access. Tried to transfer to a different bank with a higher interest rate. Apparently I can’t move the instant access one without transferring my other two ISAs which are fixed term. So I would lose 90 days interest on both of them. This is apparently…

Cash ISA palaver (my mistake)
With £52,000 to place into a savings account which would allow one or two penalty-free accesses a year, I opened a Virgin Money Double-Take E-Saver and, because my nominated account provider only allows £25k payment out per day, successfully transferred the first £25k over. The next day I tried to move another £25k and it…

Hi all. I'm looking for a cash ISA provider that will accept transfers of an existing ISA from Trading 212.

Virgin Cash ISA Stopped Receiving Interest
Last year I set up a Virgin fixed rate ISA with monthly interest. This went ok and I received the monthly interest as expected. However, I have just realised that I have had no interest since October last year. The ISA matures in June this year, so I was going to wait and see what happens. Has this happened to anybody else?

I have a substantial S&S ISA with Interactive Investor, and I am looking at selling around 60k worth of stock to keep the cash under the ISA umbrella.
