Regular savings into shares
I am looking to invest a small amount (£100 in each share) into UK stocks. So may pick a few and invest at total of £300 per month in it. What is the best way of doing this? Which broker allows this?

European accounts?
Hi all, Suppose you'd just opened a raft of new UK bank accounts and share ISA for drip-feeding into a fund. Then you got work over in Europe... what do you think of converting your currency in Euros to pounds and continue to service those £GBP accounts?

ISA vs. Normal Savings
Suppose you don't pay tax. In that case, ISA and normal savings are the same, right? In fact, you're likely to be able to find a better rate in non-ISA based savings, correct?
