Pay a chunk off the mortgage?


A good suggestion. We plan to use the money in a couple of years so won't use it to pay off any of the mortgage.

We have decided to buy premium bonds and see if we win anything.

It's in a normal savings account but we have used most of our allowance already this year.

I'll have a read up on premium bonds as well. Cheers.

Just re-read it, is it already in an ISA? Or just a normal savings account?

FYI transferring from one ISA to another doesn't use any of your allowance.

Depends how much it is. If you get it into an ISA now, you can use up your 2011/2012 ISA allowance and then transfer it to another ISA in the new tax year. That way you would get the option of using both the 2011/12 allowance and the 2012/13 allowance.

Savings accounts and ISAs are rubbish at the moment though, I wouldn't normally say this but you are probably better off buying premium bonds if you want a risk free investment.

Hey,

We have a lump sum of money that is currently sat in a bank account accruing very little interest. Those of you in the know...

Do you know if it would be better to select an account to shift it to now or wait for the new financial year and see if there are any better deals tempting people to move their ISA's etc?

Cheers,
Tim
