here is what i dont get... if you put 20.000 into the isa , do you have to withdraw everything before the end of the tax year? or do you keep it there and when the tax year ends they raise your limit by another 20.000 theoretically in the new tax year ? what is the best strategy? does this make sense? And why do the big banks offer such crappy interest? is it because they are so big make such a massive profit they dont care about their customers?
End of year you transfer (Not withdraw) the existing ISA into a new ISA account paying the best interest using ISA transfer allowing you to invest up to an extra £20,000 into an ISA. Rinse and repeat each year......... Presently have £40,000 in ISA at 4.9%.
@@fabianmckenna8197 thanks for answering and cleaning it up, I appreciate it! So if let's say my cash isa is sitting in trad212 this year I have to go somewhere else in 2025, can I go back to trad212 in 2026, or does that not count? Thks
This isa is a no brainer right now. The interest is paid daily so every day with a 15k emergency fund in cash i am getting £2 paid daily to it. I have just reached 15k so i will start a stocks and shares isa now and use the £60 a month interest from my cash isa to drip feed into it as well as regular monthly payments
Remember you can only open one type of ISA per financial year, if you just opened a cash ISA on trading 212 you can't open a stocks and shares ISA until after April next year
for cash isa purposes please note trading 212 does not allow transfer ins any more even though the option is there and it still advertises as such, presumable until they lower the interest paid out and a false means of drawing people in
Slight misinformation there regarding FSCS. You ARE still covered if Trading 212 goes bust and you have money in as a QMMF as cash in the S&S ISA or if you hold shares because you aren't keeping that money in their bank account. FSCS doesn't cover you if the value of investments goes down but if you hold cash as QMMF in there, or shares, you'll still be entitled to ownership of the underlying asset, which would be either the shares or your cash returned from the QMMF at the value it was when T212 theoretically goes bust. Currently mine is allowing me access to the Cash ISA however I'm not using it because I use the S&S ISA.
@@deltaechomusicnh555 Agreed. Everyone has there specialitys. When it comes to cash i tend to follow andy webb and martin lewis. Anything to do with investing i ussually go to damien talks money and toby newbatt. And anything to do with pensions i use james shack and pete from meaningful money
If it goes bust, when people gain access to their qmmfs and they sell them rapidly, wouldn’t that make the value of the qmmf go down dramatically causing you to lose money when u sell? (I’m new)
@@Kellestial it's already highly unlikely to go bust because T212 actually makes a profit, unlike Freetrade or Chip or Plum, because it siphons money off people doing the crazy gambling on CFDs (which people should definitely avoid) that's how they stay profitable and offer the best accounts for people at the moment. They operate that more like Robinhood in America and it is people gambling on meme stocks and shitcoins and losing more than they put in that gives T212 some profit. Add to this that a QMMF is packaged with literally tens of thousands of different institutions all contributing including the national banks of countries and people like Goldman Sachs and J P Morgan. T212 collapsing would have a negligible impact on the value, and they even spread the money across multiple QMMF apparently so that would be further mitigated. Unless you get the entire currency majorly under performing due to a giant global economic crisis like 2007/2008 then you're pretty much fine. And if that happens then we're all buggered anyway and this would be the least bad bit 🤣
Money market funds are covered by the fscs, i asked vanguard via secure message which they confirmed its covered if the mmf goes bust . Why have you given doubt on this? You got any information from fscs stating different?
Money market funds are OEIC which are to my understanding are covered The FSCS will not pay compensation if your investment performs poorly as a result of market conditions. But if a fund provider is in default, the limit is £85,000 per provider for UK domiciled mutual funds (OEICs and Unit Trusts).
@@Cryvan did you do this via the app. Manage funds > move funds? I've just moved my uninvested cash from my T212 S&S ISA to my T212 Cash ISA and my allowance has been effected. Or was this transfer done in some other way?

Does it mean if you want to play safer, put all uninvested cash in cash isa (you have FSCS protection) then take money out from there to stock and share isa to invest. (Bear in mind that it offers 1% cash back for stock and share isa currently, so you want to put 20 k to stock and share isa and take 200 bucks first. Then transfer to cash isa. Then to stock and share to invest in stock). 😅
Im very new to uk investments...lets say i investerd 1000£ in a year , can i withdraw 1052£ from cash isa including the interest earned after 1 year or just the 1000£ that i invested ?
Hi, I have 20 thousand I’m not allowed to withdraw from however I am allowed to pick where it goes is this the best isa currently. Or would you recommend going for a fixed rate
Currently have a cash ISA with Skipton which I pay into via debit card from my halifax rewards accounts for the 3 x £5 a month. Anybody know if the Trading 212 ISA will also allow deposits via debit card?
Yes you can put in 20k as the allowance allowed at any one time within the year, however if you do withdraw from this account to a diffrent one in Trading 212 there are NO fees and it does not affect your allowance limit
5.2% is not bad but consider this first. I have a Vanguard Stocks and shares ISA that seems to have returned 15% this year (to date). Over several years this could be a lot less of course. It's all about risk. The normal 5.2% for cash that Trading 212 have would give you about £1000 per year interest for £20,000 but over that you will have to declare it and pay tax. The Trading 212 cash ISA looks much better for all reasons.
@@Zero-Investing Yes, trading 212 has both and ISA and a kind of deposit account both offering 5.2%. The difference is as you say the Cash ISA is tax free. But for some who already have used up the years £20,000 allowance might still want to get another £1000 by putting in £20,000 in the deposit account. This would be tax free until the interest exceeded £1000 (from all sources) as I understand it.
@Spencer786 it's their UK version of the LifeStrategy 80/20. The previous year, it fell about 8%, recovered, and then went up about 8% in a year. So it looks like 16% 😀 at least their website says that.
Can you move money between the Stocks and Shares ISA and Cash ISA? This is what I really want to be able to do, move to cash in a down market, move back to stocks in an up martket.

No sadly not.. that be awsome i was. Remember intrest rate are based yearly, so take the amount and 5% would be the ammount for the full year.. so ÷ by 12 and that get you your monthly ammount hope that makes sense

@BeCleverWithYourCash Could we theoretically contribute the full £20k annual allowance to this T212 flexible cash isa, but then withdraw £4k given that it’s flexible and deposit these funds into a lifetime isa held elsewhere towards the end of the tax year now that you can contribute to multiple isas each tax year (provided that you don’t exceed the £20k annual allowance) or must any removed funds be returned to this account only? (In order to benefit from this highly competitive rate in the interim or would any funds then contributed to an existing lifetime isa held elsewhere be considered an over subscription of £4k given that you have deposited £24k 🤔🤷🏻♂️)
Normally, funds withdrawn from a flexible isa need to be returned to the same isa. I doubt you can withdraw from this and deposit into a LISA without increasing your use of your isa allowance. Plus the Tembo ISA's rate is higher than this once you factor in the 25% bonus
Your 212 ISAs are flexible. This means you can withdraw any amount and deposit it back without impacting your allowance, as long as you do it within the same tax year. The UK tax year runs from 6 April to 5 April. For example, if you deposit £20,000 on the 6th of April 2024, you can withdraw it on the same day and deposit it back anytime you want until the 5th of April 2025. Any amount you withdraw, including previous years contributions, you can deposit back within the same tax year.
5.2% interest and it's felxible, it's the best in the UK 💯 No competition.
