LLoyds Share Dealing - Am I missing something?

ChilliBob

Fair enough, not what I'm after right now, sticking to funds and ETFS for now. IG is interesting but looks teared more towards traders than passive fund investing from what I can tell.

They claim to be one of the cheapest (I have not done research on this) with a FX of 0.5%

One reason that Lloyds didn't get mentioned often is that until this year IWEB was just £25 one-off (and £5/trade), so beating Lloyds in most scenarios.

Yeah, thankfully a mate put me on to it just in the nick of time at £25! I need an account for my partners isa now thou. Sadly I didn't have the foresight to open two accounts!

Nice. Without my spreadsheet in front of me, I still don't think it would topple Lloyds for value though.. Seems the interface is a bit... IWeb lol. 

Any views on Lloyds? 

I would guess that's because they're all part of the same group. I'm with iWeb but interesting that Lloyds looks competitive

When you actually search on Lloyds it looks just like iweb with a different skin really!

Have you had any problems with them not having the funds you wanted?

I have had issues with iweb being unable to trade some shares and not willing to resolve it.

And before that iweb was free to open so only £5 a trade
