    I think roomaniac is referring to the HL website functionality to monitor and track fund prices in a list without buying, not the Wealth150 marketing lists.

    Fair enough, but I do this on trustnet for nothing, and presume Morningstar offer the same service.

    Exactly, that's another reason why I chose them for now. As I become more savvy and build up the pot, I'll move to a less expensive provider.


    Thanks for the info and tips.

    Don't be frightened to haggle with HL over fees, if you have portfolio rising in value with regular investment then they won't want you to leave them.

    Can I ask if you (or any forumites) have done this, and what the result was?

    I think a few people had custom fees when HL introduced their new charges scheme and some people were very negatively impacted.
    I think it's very unlikely that an existing customer would get that on their portfolio now.
    Remember the saying: if it looks too good to be true it almost certainly is.
