MinTid, you can't transfer shares from a trading a/c to an ISA. You have to sell & re-buy. You don't need to worry about losing shares, as Benbow says just instruct your broker to re-buy the same amount in your ISA. Once the shares are sold in your share a/c, they'll transfer the money to your ISA and re-buy them in there. That's why it's important to use the Bed & ISA service, otherwise you have to sell the shares, transfer the money to your ISA and re-buy them, all of which will cost you. I'd be very wary if my broker didn't understand Bed & ISA, that's the specific service you need. Out of interest, which broker are you using? Someone on here might have experience with them. You've got until the beginning of April 2022 to sort it out, so no need to rush in until you're sure about them. K
