If you transfer your ISA to another provider you can more than match the 3 year 4.65% (taxable) bond; eg Principality 3 year ISA fixed at 4.2% (equivalent to 5.25% before tax) or M&S MONEY 3 YR ISA at 4% (equiv to 5%) - that way you still keep the tax free status.

Jalexa, agree wholeheartedly with you about continuous payment authorities; the only real problem I've had (fortunately) in 35 years of using a credit card was with a recurring payment for a monthly subscription - took nearly 9 months to sort out and the card supplier was extremely unhelpful- cancelling the card didn't stop the wrongful ...
