Vanguard Global Small Cap Index equivalent available on Halifax/IWeb?

Hi guys,

As my portfolio starts to get bigger, I'm thinking of making the move from Cavendish to Halifax/IWeb.
The main issue at the moment is finding a good equivalent to the Vanguard Global Small Cap Index available on the platform with similar ongoing charges.
I can see it's available through Interactive Investor that work out cheaper than Cavendish but not as cheap as Halifax/IWeb but I've read some bad things about them one here.

Thanks,
Chris.

Have you tried asking them to add it? I imagine there's a few people on that platform who would use it.

Vanguard Global Small Cap Index is available on iWeb, both Acc and Inc versions.

Thanks TCA. I don't seem to be able to find it :-/
When I search for Vanguard funds, I get 43 results, none of which are the Global Small Cap Index.

Thanks soulsaver, it must just not be viewable from the funds centre as when searching by fund house, I'm only able to search "Vanguard Investments UK, Limited"
Good to know it's on there though, thanks all for the info.
Think I will get the switch started soon in time for the new tax year :-).

I remember this glitch before but for the life of me I can't recall how to find the Irish funds, other than when logged in and in the trading section. I thought you could search in the funds centre on the name "Vanguard" and everything would come up but that doesn't work. Closest I can find without being logged in is an old list of fund conversions:

Thanks for the link TCA.
Yeah, it's very odd, glad I could ask on somewhere like here otherwise I would have assumed it just wasn't available! :-)

If anyone interested I requested to iWeb earlier to add the Vanguard FTSE global all cap Acc version. They already had the inc version available for trading. I got confirmation that they have added the acc version now and I can see that it is available for trading now.

I plan to put my wife's this year ISA allowance in this single fund. Can anyone see any downside to this?

Thanks,
