    Yes

    You will just need to make sure you have enough free cash in the account to pay the periodic 0.15% per year fees, and the rest of the money can be reinvested.

    However, depending on the size of your investment the amount of dividends might not be enough to buy any more shares of the ETFs (e.g. £35 per share on the FTSE 250 ETF or £57 per share on the S&P 500 ETF)

    I could select for periodic fees and charges to be collected from my bank account directly so that dividends when reaches adequate amount to be used to reinvest .
