Good to Know
Once the account is open, you’ll have seven calendar days to fund it with at least £1,000. You can fund it from your linked account or, if you have one, your Online Flexi Saver or you can transfer funds from an Investec Save Instant Access Cash ISA. Multiple deposits are allowed during this window, up to your £20,000 annual ISA allowance.
