What is the best UK ETF that tracks the Nasdaq 100?
Ideally a low share price as my broker does not allow fractional shares. My main query is whether to go for synthetic replication or physical? I do like n100 from ishares, and see them as a trusted company. But on the other hand, I do like owning my stocks but could stomach owning a synthetic etf if it means I avoid 15%…

Transferring a Cash ISA to Hargreaves Lansdown Cash ISA
Hi, Has anyone managed to transfer a Cash ISA to the new HL Cash ISA at 4.55%? The process doesn't seem to be very straight forward - the cash ISA with your current provider needs to be transferred to a HL Stock and Shares first, then from HL S&S to HL Cash ISA. I am ready to send my application, however I am wondering if…

Trading 212 Cash ISA - Impossible to transfer ISA out!
A WORD OF WARNING! T212 makes it easy to accept a transfer in. But Transfers out are almost impossible. Every ISA provider demands an account number, sort code and (optionally) a reference number to accept an ISA transfer in. T212 doesn't give you a sort code or proper account number. Their 'account number' is just…

FY 24/25 I put in £5K, FY 25/26 I put in £5K. If I close the S&S ISA selling back the shares lets say for ease I get back exactly £10K. As I understand…

Relative has a JISA and CTF!
I have a relative whose parents are seperated. One set up a CTF a few years ago and the other recently set up a JISA. They only recently discovered each other had done this. I told them I don't think they are allowed to hold and pay into both at the same time and looking into it that seems to be the case, so I am trying to…
