Mathematicians - AJ Bell & H. Lansdown for S&S L-ISAs
At what point/balance does AJ Bell become cheaper than H. Lansdown for a lifetime ISA? This is assuming the same funds in each. Funds not shares.

ISA transfer question
I hear alot of people saying you should never withdraw your money from a cash ISA - you should transfer your funds so that they maintain their tax-free status.

The IWeb chatbot is completely useless
I’m trying to chat with a real person at IWeb about my ISA. I start with the chatbot which asks me what the problem is and then I have to tell it my personal details (no idea why it does that as I’m already logged in). It then transfers me to a human. The human asks me a question, which the chatbot has already asked. Why?…
