IG.com
I opened an account with IG, as recommended by MoneySavingsExpert, transferred funds in, and they quietly rejected the payment without any notification. I only discovered the issue by chance when I logged in, which is completely unacceptable for a financial institution handling client money. What should have been a simple…

Do Lloyds bank care where I have my investments?
Currently I use Lloyds Bank for normal banking - just a free current account and normal credit card that is automatically paid in full each month. Usually anything between £2-10K in the account. I have about £500K invested with IWeb/now Scottish Widows. Can Lloyds Bank "see" this and if I transferred some/all of it to…

VAT on silver bullion
Hope no-one minds me checking a very simple point? Buy (say) a one ounce silver bullion coin. VAT payable on purchase price. If you were then to sell the coin back to the same dealer -and the silver spot price hadn’t changed much - you’d ‘pay’ the dealer’s margin. (buying v selling price), plus you’d effectively lose the…

Hello. I opened a Zopa account in January. My primary motivation in doing so was to allow to me to open the linked Rainy Day Saver, which advertises a market-leading 7.1% interest rate. I deposited the maximum £300 allowed on the day I opened the account. After a month, I received only £1.68 in interest. This seems lower…
