About opening an ISA

This form enables you to make a request to open a new Select ISA, Select Junior ISA or Shrewd Savings Plan ISA.

After submitting your request we will carry out the required checks in order to set up your ISA. If looking to make a single payment, we will contact you once these have been completed to invite you to make payment into your ISA. We will then be in touch to confirm that your money has been successfully invested. If you are looking to make regular monthly payments, a Direct Debit will be set up and your plan will begin.

If you would like to open a Select ISA or Select Junior ISA with regular payments, please call us on 0800 622323. Or, if you would like to top up an existing ISA or make a payment into a different plan, please visit 'how to top-up your plan'.
