As with many types of financial services and accounts that can be opened, when an individual takes the time to compare ISAs they may find certain cons or down-sides which are associated with opening this type of account, which can accumulate tax free interest from the deposits which have been made to the bank account.

Here are some of the cons of choosing to save money through the use of cash ISA:

- Many consumers are unaware that once money has been withdrawn from the individual account, this money cannot be replaced and the amount of the deposit limit is not reset to this amount. Therefore, the money cannot be replaced to accumulate interest tax-free until the next tax year.
- With the current state of the economy, many of these savings accounts are going to be subject to lower interest rates as the interest rates that are being offered by the bank are low, due to the global economic situation.
- There are indeed limits which can be imposed, and are imposed into the amount of money which can be deposited into the account held by an individual. Currently these deposit limits sit at £7,200 each year, half in shares and stocks and half in cash.
