    Regular investing is already there. They've separated "Subscription Plan" from "Investment Plan" meaning that you can use regular investing on cash already in the account (which is not the case on some other platforms I could name). There is even a one-off option so you don't need to set up and then cancel the instruction if you just want to get a fixed sum invested on the cheap.

    It asks for email address rather than username. Tried it, but doesn't recognise my email. 

    I also tried the Investment Platform login out of curiosity.  Oddly that said "your details don't match, try again" which suggests that it recognised a part of it. Be surprised if anyone else was using any of the same details.

    I see that.  

    Does that really mean that you can use the one-off option and avoid the £5 trading fee?   

    It seems as though it can pull money from your nominated bank account, if not already held as cash.


    How's it going, AKA, Nutwatch? - 12 month spends to date = 3.24% of current retirement "pot" (as at end December 2025)
