now3D, for some other alternatives there is also Special_Saver's excellent link to low cost brokers here:
https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/comment/42607054#Comment_42607054

And these links to UK brokers that trade internationally are very good:
http://the-international-investor.com/international-stock-broker-list/uk-stock-broker-list
http://the-international-investor.com/comparison-tables/uk-international-stock-brokers

i-Dealing is a useful compromise for low cost trading a fair number of US shares and some NYSE etfs at £9.90/trade, can search options via "instrument search" in link here:

Refer me to that teabag, sounds alright. What cut of the dividends would they take.

Oops, sorry, the refer-a-friend thing only works for US citizens :-(

Once you've filled in your W8-BEN you're exempt from US taxes. (Err... I think.)

For info, when US dealing using UK brokers, 30% US tax is taken automatically at source from dividends, but if W8-BEN available through the broker chosen and sorted prior to dealing, the US withholding tax is reduced to 15%.

Halifax deals NYSE for 10.95 +1% forex commission I think it is. Best to be aware of that extra cost, also a broker which allows you to stay in dollars could save money !

Any Glencore and Xstrata holders here who picked up stock late last year will be grinning like mad things today. One trader I know at Traders Own stuck £30k into XTA at 800p last September.

XTA is cheap, glencore offer picks them up at bargain pricing. Questor says vote against the deal and I think thats probably fair as XTA can do fine anyway

perplexed_of_poole

Hi
I currently have two ISA managers, one running a Unit Trust portfolio (circa £50k), the other a direct Shares based portfolio (circa £66k). I wish to bring them together under the Shares portfolio managership, but the Unit Trust manager is not willing to transfer the existing holdings in their Unit Trust format, and is insisting on selling them (within the ISA) and transferring the cash raised to the other manager. Is he entitled to do this?

He is if you let him, what percent cost would that be
