Good to Know
A minimum £1,000 deposit must be made within 30 days of opening the account, and each deposit into the account must be a minimum of £1,000. Deposits into the Cash ISA must be from your Nominated Account by electronic payment; cheques are only accepted from an existing Cash ISA provider as part of a transfer.
