The in specie transfers took just under 3 weeks from start to finish and the one fund which couldn't be transferred in specie was transferred in cash a couple of days after the in specie transfers. £12.99 per month, no fees for 6 months and £300 cashback. Would recommend.
HL have been the worst so far. In each case it should be a straightforward cash movement via Origo, but HL dithered and dithered, and when I chased them (after waiting 15 mins listening to Muzak), I was told that they 'have problems' with Nutmeg and Origo - they were going to try and do it manually until I told them to pull their bloody finger out.Lo and behold it looks like things are moving today. But annoying that it wasn't a week or two ago when the markets would have been better for an encashment... I wanted out of Nutmeg anyway, so there was always going to be out-of-the-market risk, but irritating nonetheless.
Anyway, just my 2c on relative transfer experiences.0 -

snarffie said:I was going to correct you by saying that ii charge £19.99 for the ISA and SIPP (I think you previously had to have an ISA/Trading acct to have a SIPP), but it looks like new users can opt to go SIPP only ('Pension Builder) for £12.99 per month.
Either option - £20 for ISA/Trading/SIPP or £13 for SIPP only is decent.
Not just new users, if you only have a SIPP with II, you can change to the £12.99 pension builder charge, I did just that quite some time ago.
