S.A.M,
I'm with HL and did the same, because I normally sell and have funds instantly available to buy within the share and fund account I expected it to be able to transfer straight over to the isa. This is not the case, it takes two days to clear before you can transfer the money to rebuy the shares within the ISA.
So you can open the ISA with an extra 20k if you have it and do it that way (I didn't have the spare funds to do so(
Or as someone said ring your broker and get them to sort it for you
It was a hairy 2 days waiting for me. Syme went up luckily my other smaller holding went down so it mostly evened out.
