    for smaller amounts you are better off using a provider whose fees are based on a percentage of the value of the pot. Later you might build up enough to make it worth moving to one with fixed fees.
    No need to keep LISA and SIPP with same provider - although it might be cheaper to do so.
    It should be easy to move the Aviva pot as long as it doesn't have any protected benefits.

    Comparison tables start about halfway down:

    Thanks. It seems A j bell fees would be cheaper then Platform fee: 0%-0.25% (funds) 
    Compared to Hargreaves Lansdown
    0.1%-0.45% (funds) 
    if I go with A J bell, do I get the FSCS protection of £85,000 twice for each of the SIPP and LISA?
