Disappointed. Just checking everything before applying for my iweb account , and the very fund I was going to use as my main one , they dont seem to have .Didnt even bother checking earlier as I could have sworn Ive seen loads of other people on the forums that use iweb mentioning they have this -- HSBC Global Strategy balanced Portfolio C Acc . Glad Ive checked now, but have I got it right that iweb only seem to offer the HSBC index funds , the .13 charge ones? Have I missed something?

You mean this one?

Yes, they only offer Global Strategy Balanced, so if you want a different flavour of Global Strategy you’ll have to go elsewhere.1

I'm not sure if Iweb and Halifax share the same funds, however I can confirm its available on the Halifax Share Dealing platform.1

Dont know what the heck Ive been looking at , will look back and see if I can find out what page I was on . Thankyou .0

This is the webpage I was on - can someone see if they can get it and tell me if it comes up and shows the HSBC fund as 'no results' please . https://www.markets.iweb-sharedealing.co.uk/investments-search/?term=HSBC+Global+Strategy+Balanced+Portfolio+C+Acc0

From the inconsistent naming I'd say they've been added at different times.2 -

Try leaving out 'Portfolio'

Ugh , so much stuff to learn and details to note in order to get things right . Many thanks , thats good to know I can use iweb anyway .0

IWeb can be peculiar in the way it names funds. I would always use the drop down lists presented (fund manager -> fund) and not a manually entered search term
