    A couple of points.

    I didn't ask the SY01 if he knew what all the above were, I simply asked if he intended to trade any of the above to get an understanding of the breadth of online dealing he was looking for.

    Are you going to trade bonds, gilts, ETF/ETC, PIBS, covered warrants, Open ended / closed ended investment trusts...

    Secondly asking for the best online share dealing service is ridiculous without defining what best is?

    If best means cheapest then it's probably Barclays.

        Couldn't agree more. The thread says 'share dealing', don't remember anything else!!!!

        www.iii.co.uk has better BBs than Motley Fool IMHO, plus I wouldn't touch BP with a stolen barge pole until the end of next month.

          Is there a reason you want to buy shares specifically?

          If you make gains over £10K a year, you'll get taxed on the profits above that figure - for that reason, I tend to go for spread bets rather than buying actual shares.

          If you're buying for a pension, it makes sense to stick them in a SIPP straight away.

            SIPP was the plan, yes. I will also run some spreadbets/CFDs.

              While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

                A SIPP is not a share dealing account.

                Some online share dealing accounts offer SIPP's but that's usually separate to the main share dealing account have lots of paperwork to complete and fees are levied every year.

                Have you thought this through?

                Also a SIPP means you get tax relief on the way in, you pay tax when you draw your pension and if recent news on rising retirement age is anything is to go by, won't be until you are in your seventies.

                Unless you are a higher rate taxpayer now and intend to be a low rate tax payer when you retire, you don't gain anything other than an inflexible pot of money you can't touch until you are very old.

                A Shares ISA (and one for the wife) every year filled to the brim gives you tax free dividends and tax free gains and you can sell up and draw the income whenever you like.

                HTH

                PS. I still think the Lotto is your best bet.
