    you contact a self select ISA provider. Selftrade is an example to this and is often mentioned on here for direct investment options. They are not good for funds though.

    Trading within an ISA is often easier than holding shares directly. Admin is certainly easier as you dont have to worry about declaring gains and income to the HMRC.

    You need a stockbroker who will provide the ISA wrapper. Selftrade is widely used. If you don't mind a batch dealing service, the Halifax Sharebuilder is probably the cheapest.

    Buying and selling is done by the click of a mouse - very easy!
