How the service works
Our ‘Instruction and Transfer Tracking’ service is designed to make it easier for you to review applications and instructions you have submitted to us. Please note instructions submitted on paper will not appear in the instruction tracking (for example, lump sums for Corporate and Trust accounts, drawdown instructions). In addition, transfer tracking does not include pension re-registrations at this stage.
The new format splits out:
- Instructions which are still at the quote stage under 'Pending instructions'
- Quotes which have been submitted under ‘Submitted instructions’
- Tracking for the progress of re-registrations and transfers.
You can view a video demonstration, or further information is set out below.
From this screen you can view or edit pending quotes. You can view the history of who has updated the quote, or you can delete quotes that are no longer required. To perform any of these functions select the ‘Actions’ button.
Under submitted instructions click the ‘View’ button to see what has been submitted. There is a traffic light status to highlight which instructions are in progress, have been completed or rejected.
To view more information about the status of an ISA or Investment Account re-registration or an ISA or Pension Cash Transfer, click ‘Track’ at the end of each instruction entry.
You will then see the following screen.
NEW: Email notifications can be switched on to keep you up-to-date with the progress of your latest applications without the need for you to log in.
Tracking includes:
- Estimated number of days to completion
- Status updates at each stage of the transfer, including notification of when a case has been rejected
- Updates at asset level (on the asset tab) for re-registrations (you can see this below)
