How to Top up or Transfer your ISA

Topping-up your existing Nationwide cash ISA

New tax year, new ISA limits
The new tax year started on 6 April 2010. Don’t forget, everyone’s annual ISA allowance is now £10,200 of which up to £5,100 can be paid into a cash ISA. You have until 5 April 2011 to make the most of this year’s ISA allowance and the sooner you act, the more tax-free interest you will earn this tax year.
