Barclays to launch 6.50 per cent cash ISA
From 3rd March 2008 Barclays http://www.barclays.co.uk/savings will be offering a new market leading cash ISA The Tax Haven ISA, at 6.50% AER.
Barclays Head of Savings, Lee Chiswell, said: “We believe this is the best rate available for any cash ISA on the market at the moment, paying a massive 1.25 per cent above the Bank of England base rate. Customers only need £1 to open this best buy ISA and do not need to take out any other products to take advantage of the fantastic rate.”
“Demand for our market leading cash ISA was phenomenal last year, so to ensure we process ISA applications as efficiently as possible this year we have increased the capacity at our processing centre and streamlined the application process.”
“We would encourage customers who have not already subscribed to an ISA in the current tax year to get their application in as soon as possible so they do not miss out on their annual ISA allowance ”
The ISA allowance is a minimum £1 and maximum of £3,000 for the tax year 2007 – 2008. This is rising to £3,600 for the tax year 2008 – 2009.
You can open an account in a branch, over the phone or online, unfortunately you cannot transfer funds from an existing ISA.

Hello,
The easiest way to apply is online - http://www.barclays.co.uk/savings/
I can’t find a telephone number for Barclays savings. The web site does also advise that you call into your local branch if possible. This is probably a good idea because you can speak to a person and ask all the questions you like to make sure this is the right product for you.

On the application form it says you have to agree to buy an ISA for several years to come.Can that be right? Would I have to write to cancel the agreement next March if I didn’t want to take another year?Would the bank simply take the next years’ payment automatically from my account?
