    Mildly curious, what is it that you do to your account that's so controversial?!

    I have a portfolio of Share and ETFs, both in dealing account and stocks & shares ISA.  I used to use IWeb.  Never had any real problem with them but chose to move to AJ Bell.  Even though AJ Bell charge a small amount in fees, I think it's certainly worth it mainly because of their mobile app.
    I've never found any need for a mobile app to monitor investments. It's different to a bank where I need to check my balance/transactions regularly. If anything an app might encourage too much portfolio churn.

    I've been with iWeb for 8 years. Very happy with them especially saving over £1300 a year in fees compared to my previous company. That definitely adds up as it's over £10k now that's in my portfolio not in their coffers!
    The iWeb site works really well on a mobile browser.

    May just move my Charles Stanley for now. That was 0.35% running cost. With over a 100k in it works out alot.
    I was with CSD until 2018 when I moved to IWeb after they went up from 0.25%. A shame as I liked them, very efficient and the customer service was excellent, but in the end I couldn't justify 0.35% for a portfolio that mostly just sat there with little activity. I've never regretted the move
    Is it a sizeable amount you had with them? Yes the charges are alot. Or it definitely adds up with a larger amount.

    Many here report losing those figures, perhaps others can comment. You might want to make your own records while you can
    I definitely didn't get those figures carried across. A few of mine with no trades are still showing as 0 purchase cost
    iWeb set my book prices to the figures I supplied when asked via their chat.  I was impressed.

    Yes.  All done though their web on-line chat.  Took an hour or so to update, but very happy with the result.

    Charles Stanley Direct? £10 per holding.



  • I am looking to transfer from II to IWeb myself. I have an ISA account and a general trading account with II currently, and checked and IWeb would take all the funds. 

    As I understand no account opening fee (£100) if I open account before the end of the year and no admin fee. My question is if I don't do any trades throughout the year, will I get charged anything? Seems a bit too good to be true...
