    Note that you can also transfer ISAs to other companies. So, if you make a mistake, you are not stuck forever with an expensive company. Usually the transfer requires that you've sold the shares already. Some companies also allow you to borrow from your £20k temporarily as if it's a cash savings-account, and you can return that money before the end of the financial year.

    @@joannalis-kumar4627 Sell all the shares inside the old ISA, you'll now have £20k cash in the old ISA. Then start the process of transferring that ISA to another company. Absolutely do not withdraw from the old ISA, it will complicate things. If the old ISA was created in this financial-year, it might be fine. But if the ISA was created a long time ago, you now have a dud with a new max-£1 ISA instead of a max-£20k ISA.

    There's more to it than just these fees. There's also the bid offer spread you are offered when purchasing and selling. One platform may be free to trade whilst another may incur a charge, but that doesn't mean the price you pay for the ETF or stock is the same on both platforms. It's possible that free trading costs may be recouped by a larger bid offer spread on the platform. Traditionally, the bigger the broker, the narrower the bid offer spread.

    How would bigger bid, offer spreads benefit the platforn. You can purchase Vanguard etfs on their own platform without dealing costs, just not in real time. The same applies to investengine, no dealing costs but you can't buy in real time, but deals go thru just like when buying, selling normal funds.

In July 2022 they decided to exit the UK so I transferred to HL, and that took until October 2022 to sort out. HL were fantastic, but ITI were incompetent.

You are allowed to keep it and buy/sell/reinvest the money already in there. But if you open a new one and start paying into that, you just can't add any more money to the old one. You can also choose to move it across if you wish - that's really up to you!

    Good question! You can transfer mid year but the rules are you have to transfer everything you invested in that year across. With stocks it can be complex if you have prior years and you don’t want to transfer those. Many brokers will ask if you already paid into the same type of ISA when you sign up and not let you open an account if you did - presumably don’t want to deal with the process.

    @@SashaYanshin Huge fan, been watching your videos for a while. Never had ISA or Pension due to ignorance. Even when I had a Limited Company, The Chartered accountants never advised me to purchase ISA or even SIPP so I missed out a lot and even paid a large amount of taxes over the years until I stopped. Now with ten years to State Pension Age, Is it worth it to purchase Stock and Shares ISA, Vanguard S & P 500 with the Hereditary factor in place so can be passed on? I joined a DB pension scheme through the workplace a few years ago but only have a four thousand pounds per year pension guaranteed for life so far. I will have the full 35 years of NI contributions by State Pension Age. My DB pension dies with me but can purchase additional pension contributions in multiples of 250s up to close to 8000 to boost my pension contributions and the employer also tops up. This will cost around £125k but without dependant cover. Trying to find a balance so I do not overpay into the additional pension contribution purchase which I intend to pay in installments for ten years. But there is no hereditary factor so if I die, the rest of the pension goes to the Employer. Since no spouse or partner, the death lump sum benefit is not applicable in my case. Nobody knows one's life expectancy. The mortgage is fully paid but would like to have an asset that I can pass on to my children who have £200k Student Finance Loans. I wonder if it is worthwhile investing in the Vanguard S&P 500 and leaving it there for at least ten years? Are there alternatives or better options for this dilemma?

    T212 do not offer in-specie transfers in, only offer cash transfers in. So you would have to sell, incur any costs and be out of the market.

    Great video Sasha, So many comments (sorry in case my questions are already answered, hard to keep track on all comments) 1. Any comments on Monzo ISA? I just happen to open that within week (wish should have waited) 2. Do we have to keep 20k or less throughout financial year so we can be exempted from taxes? Is it locked in a way (I guess not and you can still withdraw anytime) 3. Further on above point, e.g say you have 5k in ISA and you withdraw all after 3 months, (then whatever gains you may have made sure that’s tax free). Basically within financial year at some point you had 5k in ISA, does that count for HMRC self assessment filing and get leverage on taxes? (Or) you don’t get rebate because ideally you withdrew all in a given year?

    1.So long as your Monzo ISA is a cash ISA, it doesn't stop you paying into a Stocks and Shares ISA before the new tax year in April (subject to the overall condition of staying within the £20k ISA deposit allowance). 2. You can put £20k into ISAs in each tax year, all of which, while in the ISA, is exempt from tax (unless you die and there's tax on your estate -unlike pensions, ISAs are counted towards your estate). There's no ultimate limit on how large ISAs can grow. You can be an ISA millionaire, so certainly don't have to be under £20k. 3. Firstly, if investing, you should think long term (5 years+) and not about withdrawing in the short term. When i fill my self-assessment as a self-employed person, it's not relevant what I had in my ISA (there's no tax due). However, if you withdraw from an ISA and then go on to make gains/income which needs to be declared, then that's different. But you still have some (small) allowances for CGT and dividend tax outside of ISAs anyway. I've tried to answer, but I appreciate I may be missing what you mean because I didn't particularly understand the final 2 questions you were asking.

    That's for you to decide. The limit is on the guarantee only. It doesn't mean that you won't get any money/stocks back above the limit and in practice, unless there is gross misconduct (management steals your assets), they should be relatively easy to recover above the limit too. But at the end of the day, you need to decide for your peace of mind how you want to manage that risk.

    Exactly what attracted me to them in the first place. It's much cheaper in this one scenario which is what 99% of investors should be doing. Only have to watch out you pick the correct one as HL heavily promote more expensive etf tracker funds through regular investing (E.g. UBS S&P funds) but don't tell you they don't cap the charge on them so it reverts back to 0.45%

Is ut likely I will get more in a year than the 5% I can get from a cash ISA? People keep giving figures from 8% to 12% in one year. Where can I get true info about what people make? I want to possibly transfer a £20K ISA to a stocks and shares ISA in 2 weeks, then leave it running for a year, but also open a new cash ISA and pay in £20K on 6th April. That will go with another transfer I have just done.

    This is allowed! You can open as many ISA as you like for the purpose of transferring old ones. You can also have ISAs running in parallel. You can only pay in £20K each tax year in total, so can pay £10K in to one and £5K in to two others depending on the provider.

What is it with YT'ers (not you specifically) banging on about and making most of their content about platform costs (affiliate links obvs), seriously! H&L is the highest FX and platform cost of most platforms that include both index funds and stocks (3000+), but you know there's a human at the end of a message or phone, try sorting out issues with newer 'no fee/inexpensive' bot platforms. I dont think so! From 2024 tax year we can have multiple ISA shares platforms, so grab a VG platform for VG index funds and H&L (or similar reputation) for everything else. At least you have managed risk and there will be no surprise T&C changes, costs may even come down with the recent platform competition too, but forget costs, reputation and response is far more important, even over longer durations.

    It can remain open. You can also transfer it to another provider. However, you cannot make any new subscription (ie. pay in) "after the tax year that you move (unless you’re a Crown employee working overseas or their spouse or civil partner)." You must also tell the ISA provider asap that you are no longer UK resident. Reinvestment of dividends is not you making new deposits and is fine. If reinvestment of dividends counted as new deposits, we could never use the allowance by investing £20k - the dividends would continually take us beyond £20k.
