    Question for fee diff between hargreaves lansdown vs Interactive Investors

    Many thanks for this. I think I will go with Trading 212 as it looks to have no holding fee or FX charge.

    Question for fee diff between hargreaves lansdown vs Interactive Investors

    I opened an account with HL and noticed the FX charge after that. It wasn't mentioned in the fees section: ISA Charges & Fees For The Stocks & Shares ISA | HL They only seem to be answering messages because of the covid situation. Looking at II website, they support multi currency with %1.5...

    Question for fee diff between hargreaves lansdown vs Interactive Investors

    Hi, Just comparing share threading on these two platforms. HL's fees looks a lot higher as they take percentage of your holdings compare to II's flat fee which also gives you a free trade. Would you agree? Could anyone also shed a light on FX conversion fees between these two when buying US...

    British public opinion has shifted sharply against Brexit, according to a Sky Poll

    Long time reader here and first time posting about Brexit as I could not help and comment on this. In short I agree with what sasguru is saying; it is indeed utter bollux. I lived in Turkey for over 20 years and know the current political structure and problems very well. When I see people say...

    OpenRent thoughts

    Same here. After an unsuccessful period with an agency, I decided to use this one and got tenants pretty quick. Perhaps that was luck but It was a great service for the money. I had my enquiries responded very quickly. As you will be managing the property yourself, I strongly suggest reading...

    Stocks and shares ISA Platform recommendations

    Have you checked out nutmeg.com ? They do a risk analysis when you open an account (and yearly) and select a profile for you to invest in. Basically a risk point between 1 to 10, 10 being the highest risk. I've invested almost a year ago and the portfolio they have assigned to me is running...

    24 Month rate increase

    I used this as a justification in the past and combined with the fact that I had the experience and knowledge of the system there for 2 years and managed an increase in the end for £50. It is also the fact that after 2 years you have proven yourself. You know the environment and people which...

    Crunch Accounting

    I've been using Crunch over 3 years now and very happy with it. Software is very good and being updated continously. Support is helpful and prompt. I had only one problem and when complained they were quick to apologize and take action. If you want them to be a bit more proactive and look...

    Anyone here used crunch accounting?

    I've been using them more than 2 years now. Great service compare to others I used. As pointed out; they continuously improve their web site which is more than enough for me.

    Buying a house - concerned

    I am in a similiar situation, my offer just accepted for 2 bed flat in SE London. I am not that concerned to be honest; my mortgage will be almost same as my current rent and I don't think the flat I am buying will loose its value. I know I am putting a good amount of deposit but I will be...

    Aston Carter - Delayed payment anyone?

    Sorry for the late response on this. It was simply client not updating the timesheet correctly in their external system but again I had sent the correct timesheets and the invoice on time for this and got a really late response from AM when I asked why I didn't get the payment on time. In the...
