Trading212 low cost Ftse Tracker

sidneyyoungblood

Looking for  a world tracker on Trading212 

I have a  HSBC FTSE All World Index Class C - Accumulation (GBP) on Iweb but the £5 fees are can mount up over the year. ,

Can anyone recommend a similar low cost fund which I can purchase on trading212 which I can purchase within m S&S isa  ..
Thanks

Scottish Widows (nee IWeb) now have regular investing for £0

T212 doesn't do open ended funds, you would need to look for an ETF

All funds available. You still would need to pay £5 at the point of sale, but that's probably going to be insignificant, but if that's an issue you can buy a similar ETF such as ACWI (slightly different index, but you're still buying all world)

I'm not sure if we've any reports of this being used in practice yet, so if you go for it OP, let us know how you get on.

It's the same platform you are already using and holding the fund on.

iWeb has been rebranded Scottish Widows and is now offering free regular investing.

ACWI is the one I use.

How do people actually start going with this. Every time I tried to fund my account the bank link (HSBC) failed either because the ob.hsbc.co.uk link came back blank or I got futher but I didn't have the requisite details to get the verification code. Specifically "enter the requested digits from your transaction as instructed". There were no "requeted digits". After several attempts and half an hour + I quit.

For some reason instant transfers don't work. I paid by card.

Not any meaningful ones. It is worth reading about the differences between OEICs and ETFs in general for your own understanding as they do have differences that are worth knowing about.
