Do you think they are as safe for your money as HL? I am sitting in cash most of the time when there is nothing for me to trade in, so that is not protected. Therefore the platform security is very important

    ==============================

    HL is now owned by a consortium of private equity outfits based in Abu Dhabi, the Channel Island, and Stockholm. Iweb is part of the Lloyds Group, one of the "Big Four" banks. Which makes them sound pretty safe to me.

    HL confirmed in a message the nil share custody charges applies to gilts as well as shares, so a little more time to do the transfer.
