Regular Investing feature with II

resilie
Posts: 179 Forumite
I wondered if someone could clarify this for me. The regular investing plan with II at £1.50 a pop covers "UK share deals" only as well as funds etc. Now does that mean that only funds sold directly in the UK (e.g. with an ISIN number starting with GB) can be purchased under the regular scheme? There are a few ETFs I like the look of based in Ireland (ISIN IE) so would they be £10 as per regular dealing charges?
Just trying to decide which platform to go for and this could clinch it for II or not.
Thanks for your help

I'd take it to mean shares listed on the London Stock Exchange, but don't take my word for it.....0

This is the exact wording on the website:
Investment Charges
Buy or sell UK funds and shares
£10 - standard fee, per trade
£1.50 per trade for regular investments with Portfolio Builder
Benefits of Trading with Portfolio Builder:
Buy UK shares for just £1.50
Choose how much to invest
Change the amount you invest and when
Invest with a regular or one-off payment
Invest in shares, ETFs and Investment Trusts
Does anyone use II portfolio builder and can advice pls? I find it a bit unclear from the above. TIA0 -
If in doubt I would contact II.
most other platforms allow for regular investment into FTSE 350 shares, selected investment trusts, selected ETFs and usually all the funds on their platform."If you aren’t willing to own a stock for ten years, don’t even think about owning it for ten minutes” Warren Buffett

I've bought individual shares, ITs and funds using the £1.50 rate. Never bought ETFs though.
Best thing to do is message II; they will get back to you in several days time with some sort of answer.;)0
