I am not sure if I am just making this up or not but I am so depressed with the Britannia ISA rates at the moment and was wondering if others could give me some figures to compare to see whether I should transfer my ISA somewhere else. I think that the rates are really getting to me especially as I have been saving in ISAs for quite some time now and with £30,000 in a Cash ISA I can feel the difference of what I was getting before and what I am getting now on their 1.25% rate. What are you getting? |

I am with Abbey Direct ISA and I am getting 2.00% however I think you can get a better rate if you have a higher balance. You will have to check if they accept transfers though as I know some ISA providers don’t. |

The Stafford Railway Building Society also has 2.75% with a minimum balance of 30k. |

I think the Santander Direct ISA is a great offer. The minimum is 9k, they allow transfers, withdrawals are penalty free and there is a bonus for the first 12 months with an interest rate of 3.00%. You should definitely check it out, the difference between 1.25% and 3.00% on 30,000 is nearly tripled, not great overall but it is still something. |

Thanks for that, heading to Santander later today and seeing what they can do for me. Thanks for the help. |
