Best SIPP in Drawdown?

Options
If I have a £200k SIPP (£100k Funds / £100k GILTS) and move it into a USP/Drawdown... which is the best value SIPP provider?

As a starter, it looks like HL will charge:
GAD Calc (USP setup) £75 +vat
Annual Charges (due to GILTS) £200 +vat

Is that the best deal out there?

    Fair enough.
    I have a Sippdeal Sipp and an Alliance Trust Savings Select Sipp.

    I don't have any problem with the ATS product and because they rebate trail comission on funds it works out cheaper than the Sippdeal offering for holding funds.
    I have had difficulty in dealing with the customer support staff on the phone but once past them it has been ok.

    Thanks for feedback so far.

    I have been trying to purchase GILTS in my SIPPDEAL SIPP and all efforts have failed so far. When I try to purchase online I get a message telling me to phone them. I will persevere and see what happens but I do not want to pay for phone dealing (£30) when its not mt fault the systems not working....

    Alliance Trust SELECT SIPP is on my shortlist as they rebate some trail commission and GILTS/ETF's are available there too.
    I think we have to trial them before consolidating into one SIPP.

    Latest: SIPPDEAL confirm that I cannot currently purchase GILTS online...must do this by phone at £30.
