My understanding is that you can’t transfer existing shares into an ISA. You can only put cash (including share sale proceeds) into a stocks and share ISA. That cash can then be used to buy shares.
There are exceptions where employee share schemes are concerned.
So Zippy, assuming these were not in a company share scheme you didn’t miss a trick.
As ever these are my “random bloke on the internet” view, not professional advice.
