The ISA allowance is the maximum amount you can invest across all types of ISAs in any one tax year. You can put your whole allowance into a particular type of ISA or you can split it between the different types of ISAs: Cash, Stocks & Shares, Lifetime and Innovative Finance. The ISA allowance for the 2019/20 tax year is £20,000. For Junior Cash ISAs, the allowance is £4,368.

If for any reason you need to withdraw your money earlier than the notice period, you will need to write to us by post or secure message in internet banking.
At our discretion you may have access to your savings without waiting the notice period for Online Cash ISA, 90 Day Notice Online Cash ISA and Cash ISA. However we will charge you the interest due on the amount withdrawn for the part of your notice period for which you have not given notice. So if you withdraw £500 on 15 Calendar Days’ notice from an Account set up on 90 Calendar Days’ notice, then a charge equivalent to the interest you would have earned on that £500 for 75 Calendar Days (i.e. 90 - 15) will be deducted from your Account.
For Fixed Rate ISAs withdrawals are not allowed until maturity. The only exception to this is if you close the account and/or transfer the full balance to another ISA. Early closure will result in an early access charge being applied equivalent to a number of days of interest.
2 year term – 180 days’ interest
3 year term – 270 days’ interest
The charge will be taken from the account balance, so you may get back less than originally deposited.
Instructions given in internet banking to make a payment from your account will only be carried out after the expiry of any notice period on your account. Any attempt to schedule a payment before then will be rejected.

Yes you can. As long as your deposits are received within the 60 days allowed, if you open your account close to the tax year end you may be able to subscribe into your Fixed Rate Cash ISA for two consecutive tax years. You will need to check the date your last deposit is allowed, this will be detailed on your account opening letter.

Yes. We will write to you one month before your fixed rate cash ISA matures, asking you to let us know what you'd like to do with your funds. You can then ask us to change your fixed rate cash ISA into another Triodos cash ISA, when it matures.
Alternatively, during the fixed term of your Triodos Fixed Rate Cash ISA, you can request to change your Fixed Rate Cash ISA into another Triodos cash ISA, but you will incur a 'breakage charge' as per the terms and conditions. The ‘breakage charge’ is equivalent to:
- 2 year term – 180 days' interest
- 3 year term – 270 days' interest
The charge will be taken from the account balance, so the balance in your new type of Triodos cash ISA might be less than originally deposited in your Fixed Rate Cash ISA.
There is no charge when changing to a different type of Triodos cash ISA on maturity.
For more details, see our how-to guide below on changing your cash ISA to a different type of Triodos cash isa.

We will write to you one month before your fixed rate cash ISA matures, asking you to let us know what you'd like to do with your funds. If we don’t hear from you, the account will automatically mature and change into a Triodos Cash ISA, keeping the same account number as your fixed rate cash ISA. You will then be able to keep the funds in the Triodos Cash ISA, transfer the funds to another ISA (using a transfer form to retain the ISA status of the funds) or transfer the funds to your nominated account. If you want to make further deposits into the Triodos Cash ISA, you will need to complete an ISA declaration form.
