NS&I Direct ISA sort code/ account number -transfer out
I'm moving from an NS&I Direct ISA to a Paragon ISA
Paragon need a paper form submitting with the NS&I sort code/ account number
The best guess is a/c 11994808 Sort code: 08 31 20 which is for transfers in - can I assume it's the same ?

Re: NS&I Direct ISA sort code/ account number -transfer out
I can see where you may have found that sort code and account number https://www.nsandi.com/products/direct-isa and/or https://www.nsandi.com/files/asset/pdf/direct-isa-standing-order-form.pdf but no doubt you've also seen the relevant section of https://www.nsandi.com/products/direct-isa. All they appear to say there is:
Can I transfer my NS&I ISA balance to another provider?
Yes, you can. There’s no need to contact us, as the provider you’re transferring to will request your money from us directly.
Maybe a phone call is needed (shudder).

Re: NS&I Direct ISA sort code/ account number -transfer out
I've tried web chat - filled in name etc and submitted question.
It cleared the input boxes and announced....
"All our advisors are busy. Try again later"
No queuing system or anything. I guess they must be pretty busy...

When I've transferred "non-clearing bank" ISAs in the past, I have written the account number for my account (not the transfers in account number), and left the sort code empty.
NS&I are just like many building societies who have a "roll number" instead of a unique sort code+account number, and if Paragon can't handle such accounts, then a formal complaint (escalated as required) is in order, as it is their problem, not yours.

Re: NS&I Direct ISA sort code/ account number -transfer out
It's required on the Paragon form - same thing when I transferred in from Nationwide, who had a 'global' sort code/account number with a roll number to identify individual customers

I would never dream of doing this sort of thing via anything apart from an official letter, sent via recorded/registered or whatever make-believe procedures are in place by our once world-famous Royal Mail.
Golden rule: Have everything in writing, with traceability.

That's just the Goverment Banking Service collection account for ISA payments. Very likely a pay out will come from a different source account because of the way GBS works.
Just put the account number of your ISA account on the form - without a sort code. It's National Savings. Paragon know where they are.

Re: NS&I Direct ISA sort code/ account number -transfer out
Thanks, I will do that.
When I transferred in from Nationwide they had a specific 'generic' account number-sort code to use for transfers out, with the account number being different to the roll number of course
Thus;
Account number: 33333334
Sort code: 070093
Your roll/reference number
I was expecting NS&I to have a similar system

Re: NS&I Direct ISA sort code/ account number -transfer out
Oh I dunno...agents, staff, operatives. And the spell check prefers advisor to adviser - although both are correct
(having seen the s - I guess they have two at peak times)

Re: NS&I Direct ISA sort code/ account number -transfer out
Just fill in the account number, and leave the sort code blank, and send the form in - like you've been told twice before.
