Hi
I found the tips about stocks and shares ISAs very helpful but when I enquired about AXAs -no platform fee, no buy sell fee sounds good But their man on the phone told me they dont do unit trusts or OEICS just their own investment trusts.

I wish I could find a decent book to explain all this.

    I find it unbelievable that Axa only offer 1 investment trust on a platform, makes no sense at all

    In spite of what you were told AXA do offer a wide range of funds, but AXA may not be the best platform for you.

    Have a look at this: http://www.comparefundplatforms.com

    It may be helpful! :)
