ISA stands for an Individual Savings Account. The main difference between an ISA and other savings accounts is that you can save tax-free into a Cash ISA, so you could get more for your money. There is a limit to how much money you can put into an ISA in each tax year - this is called the 'ISA allowance'.

Your roll reference number can be located on the most recent transaction page in your savings account passbook. If you are an online customer, the roll reference number will be on your home page. This number must be quoted whenever you wish to make a transfer into your account.
