    i hold two Vanguard funds on ISA in TD.. is it worth transferring these to Vanguards platform to save a bit of cash? Anyone know the fees involved for such a procedure?
    There are no fees at either end for an ISA transfer from TD to Vanguard, so you'll benefit straightaway from Vanguard's lower platform fee....

    have a read of this,

    then this was in post 165 above, so seems transferring out of TD is free,

    Until at least 1st October 2018 according to the link below:

    That suits me very well indeed, hopefully IG don't now drop their cash incentive.

    I wanted to get the TD GIA wrapped up in the ISA and then closed before moving ISA, which needs to wait until April.

    TD charges. Transfer out and Trading Account closure free ISA closure £30. If your account is empty and not used II will still charge platform fee so be sure to close the accounts as soon as the investments leave the account.

    Are you sure there's a £30 ISA closure fee? Can you post a link please. Their rates and charges page says no fee to open or close your account. If you're transferring an ISA it should disappear anyway so there should be no empty account as such:

    https://www.tddirectinvesting.co.uk/rates-and-charges

    They will charge a fee on closure if you are actually paying ongoing account fees. i.e. you get a pro-rata charge up to date of closure, payable on date of closure. But that's the account fee outstanding at closure, not an actual closure fee.

    Received an e-mail from TD Direct confirming TO and it would not incur a fee

    That reads a bit contradictory but I interpret that to mean you pay your existing account fees pro-rata to date of closure. If you don't pay any ongoing account fees, you won't be charged anything. It's talking about account fees due (and unpaid) not closure fees.
