Good to Know
Only for Northern Ireland residents aged 18+ (new customers and existing members). Regular-saving rules: open with £1 to 1/12 of the annual ISA allowance, then pay £1 to 1/12 of the allowance (about £1,666.66) each month by electronic transfer. From 1 March, any unused monthly allowance can be paid in as extra deposits, up to the £20,000 annual limit. You can miss one monthly payment a year. Any payment over the monthly cap is returned. Opened and run in branch, at an agency or by post, using a passbook. Progressive accepts subscriptions to only one of its cash ISAs per tax year.
