Does anyone else use this site for their investments?

Recommended by a pal, just wondering if they are sound before delving in! Cheers

They were OTT with their application form in my view. When it came to them requiring a "video selfie" I decided to stay with Chip.

I found eToro easier to set up and use

I use moneybox for my S&S isa though.

Thanks chaps I'm all ears with this - a new one on me!

I'm setting up a stocks and shares ISA. I've had a few tips on which horses to back

 

[steveo3002]

spill the beans then

its my first time investing , its really easy to buy /sell /add money etc , and any withdrawals to bank have been instant

I stick to low cost index funds in my S&S isa, and deposit about 1.5k every month, no thinking required

Around 10% up this year so far.

I've got a cash ISA with them, best rate I could find. Been good so far although as has been pointed out verification is a bit onerous, but I suppose it keeps the scammers off. Don't rely on it for withdrawals at weekends though, during the week I have found it pretty instant but once past Friday evening I've had to wait until Monday for it to show up in my current account.

I use Trading212 and Investengine.

Both are low cost platforms and both have their pros and cons.

Trading 212 = Cash ISA, Stocks and Shares ISA, general investment account and stocks.

Investengine = Only ETFs, no stocks and also do not pay any interest on uninvested funds.

They are both arguably the two lowest cost investing options in the UK. Fees and charges makes a hell of a difference, especialy over a long period.

If you’re thinking of opening up with them have a look for ‘financial interest’ on yourube and other investment channels (don’t necessarily take their advice) they have affiliate links that often get you a bonus £50 for signing up through their links.

I use trading 212 for cash isa and invest engine for investments and moneybox for lifetime S&S isa.

Nevermind Youtuber's affiliate links, use ours!

Youtubers are already rich

dont forget you need to enable interest on any non invested money , its a semi decent rate too

think if you sign up through money saver site you get a better rate for xx months
