Great comparison Chris, Such a Great Video!! So easy to comprehend, arguably one of best video on stock V shares. thank you. I am In my 30s and trying to invest at least $55k per year. this video was helpful.

Great video but one thing investors should be aware of is HL charges 0.45% for funds on top of the funds management fee. The £3.75 is just for stocks, etf’s and bonds. So if you plan to hold funds then maybe it wouldn’t be in second place
@@chrispalmer24 I have a £27k portfolio of three funds only, in an ISA and I will stick to those funds for next 5 years. I invest a a small amount (£100 per fund) Monthly, I.e three transactions monthly. I am currently with HL, and looking to transfer Which platform would offer me minimum charges ? ( including platform and dealing charges )
Excellent overview. I will be sharing with others. I’m intrigued by your comment on Vanguard’s representation of Rate of Return. How did you calculate your return as 14%? Could you please do a video on how these platforms present performance and what might be alternative calculations to consider? Thanks!
Depends if it's transferred as the holdings or in cash, it does usually take a few weeks to go through. If you are transferring your current positions, you'll still own them, just not be able to sell any.
Brilliant video. After making some big losses due to stupid decisions during Covid, I wanted to re-enter the market with a more well thought out approach. I started compiling all of the details around costs etc which I quickly realised was a bit of a mammoth task and got quite demoralised. Thank you so much for collecting all of this information and presenting it in an easily digestible form!
Hi Chris, Really great video. Thanks. You mention that there is a link to download the full comparison but I can't see it in the description. Am I looking in the wrong place? I'd love to spend a buit more time reviewing the different options before I decide whether to move y investments away from Fidelity.
Fantastics video btw! This might be a silly question but when moving your account over to another platform dont you loose the compounding interest acumilated in the previous account
If you can transfer in specie, between ISAs you will not be out of the market. It just means you can not trade for a few weeks until completion. Transfer of a pension into a Vanguard SIPP took about 6 weeks, as the old provider was slow, and I was out of the market, so some compounding loss.
The only thing to bear in mind depending which platform is you will typically use historical data you've built up, but you won't lose the actual money :)
Awesome Video. Useful, Concise, low waffle & easy to understand. I have one question... how do you transfer from different providers without incurring losses? I currently have Stocks ISA, SIPP & Trading Accs with Interactive Investor & was hoping to move to your S-Tier favourite. (PS Sorry I'm late to the party)
Just transferred from Vanguard to InvestEngine. Why am I paying an account fee when I don't have to. Especially when I'm going to hold the same Vanguard funds anyway!
Hi Chris, thanks for this video! I want to transfer my ISA over from Freetrade to T212 but as in-specie transfer is still not available, would you recommend transferring as cash or wait until in-specie becomes available? Thanks.
Hi Jekz! Hmm not sure how long it’ll be honestly up to you. I’d be tempted to just sell and get it over. I don’t think it’s an awful time to be out of the market but of course no one knows!
Hi Chris, Thank you for doing this. Great video. Not for ISA, but i remember last year Lightyear was one of your favourite platforms, why have you stopped including it in your reviews? Is there a reason we should avoid it?
Hi mate, really nice platform I’ll be doing some more with them soon, was hoping they’d have their isa for this comparison! Hopefully for the next one 🤞
@@chrispalmer24 you are getting better and better at this, keep it going.Your research is the most important but we appreciate the graphics as well , very easy to understand everything.
Thanks for the informative video, Chris. I've had a Dodl account for a few months and am only able to add small amounts (about £40-50 a month), so now I'm thinking I should move that to an account like T212, if I'm being charged a minimum £12 a year in fees. Or is that not the best way to look at it?
Hi John! Yeah you could, it’s £1 a month so it’s not huge in the grand scheme of things but it is technically 0.5% of what you are contributing each month. You could swap it over but up to you!
I dot understand the people who dislike the vanguard desktop website and say it look old and outdated, to me it look clean, modern and very usable and simple i could not ask for much more other than to be able to show your actual returns more clearly
You can 👍 the only difference will be some let you transfer your holdings and some will make you sell and transfer as cash. I’ve sold and transferred and it’s never been an issue honestly
Hi Chris, thank you again as always. Such incredibly helpful guides and content. I've gone for 212 this year but am now looking for a 'global growth ETF that excludes the US, distributing in GBP' Do you have any thoughts or would you be able to do produce a video on it please. I'm too heavily weighted to the US in individual stocks and JGGI, so keen to have a world ETF that doesn't create a greater US overlap.
Great video Chris ! Who would you recommend for a SIIP? I have trading 212 for my ISA but not sure on a SIIP. Also how does the tax relief work? I am not self employed so do not submit a self assessment.
I'll get on to the SIPP comparison next :) If you are in accumulation Invest Engine is great and you can get the same welcome bonus. Tax relief will get added when you contribute, or you can do it through salary sacrifice worth looking up as it'll be cheaper tax wise perhaps.
Hey mate, I have maxed my T212 ISA every year and have a large sum of cash which I'd like to deposit into a T212 general investment account to earn 5.20%. Would you say its better to deposit this cash into a T212 GIA (same provider as my ISA) or go with another broker for protection/safety purposes? Appreciate your views, thanks.
I would go for T212, then for something like S&P500 if you're keeping the account for a few years. You get ETFs that concetrate on growth, or on dividends you can reinvest or buy other shares with. You need to balance it as to what you prefer. I go for both. I also go for copied UK Dividend pies. I made my own pie with utilities companies and had £115 dividends since April, plus the value is 8.6% higher.
Aren’t the HL fees tiered and one of the most expensive? 0.45% on £250k, 0.25% on value between £250k and £1m and then 0.1% on £1m-2m with nothing thereafter. So if you had £2m as your fund you’d be paying £1k/month?! The cap is for purchase of each share, fund etc
@@chrispalmer24so does your video assume you’re only investing in ETFs and shares and no “funds”? You can still buy “funds” within your stocks and shares isa account on HL?
I think the statement that HL's charge for ISA is capped is misleading as for fund there is no such cap. As such the cost from HL is actually very high
Oh wow that’s interesting. I’m surprised it’s a different team? When wanted help recently my request did get sent to the “regular investing team” which I was surprised by
Yikes I nearly panicked then, lol. Here it is: "While it’s free to hold shares in a Fund and Share Account, there’s an annual 0.45% charge which is capped at £45 per year for the Stocks and Shares ISA and £200 per year for the SIPP." But yeah funds are uncapped I have a feeling that bit may have been cropped out in the edit, thanks for adding
Just a bit of a correction: the interactive brokers fx fees are 0.002% (not 0.2%). I think you got confused by the fx fee being listed as 0.2 basis points. But a basis point is 0.01%. So 0.2 basis points is 0.002%. Yes, I know this seems extremely low compared to the others but that’s what they are. They’re extremely competitive in this regard.
I think the statement that HL's fee is capped at £3.75 is misleading as there is no such cap for fund and therefore the cost from HL is actually very high compared with others.
Capped on exchange traded funds uncapped on mutual funds, go for the ETF version and use regular investing (free) to buy more. It’s a weird stipulation I know
Yeah so it's a maximum of £45 per year for the Shares/ETFs - so I'm just dividing it by 12 to bring it in line with the others which are monthly, worth noting "Funds" i.e not ETF's are uncapped. Eek.
How much are you paying? Seems you can get 0.45% reduced to 0.10% with a subscription? Do they have the all world fund? It’s hard to see from the site. Seems okay but seems a little pointless to have over invest engine to be honest just paying extra fees for no real reason, nice UI though I used them for saving
@@chrispalmer24 I currently just have their basic account, so don't pay any monthly subscription. I don't think they have a global index fund from what I've seen. The main ones I've invested in are S&P, FTSE UK, FTSE Europe, Global Tech and emerging markets. I remember getting recommended to plum a couple of years back when I was very new to it all. Was a nice route in for a beginner. But I'm now wondering whether I should switch to trading 212 or Vanguard 🤔
What is teh easiest way to set up recurring deposit from Bank Account without paying 0.7% fee? Looks like I have to manually transfer every month and then invest thereafter, am I missing something?
@@b-m-c Choose the bank transfer option (not the instant one), and it will give you a reference and bank details which you can then use to set up a standing order from your bank account!
I find T212 to be very restrictive in terms of individual shares available. Interactive Investor RARELY don't offer a company I am looking for, and from member it was an ISA issue and not something they weren't offering
The FX fee of Invest Engine & Vanguard should be "N/A", not "ZERO" in your comparison category, otherwise it's not fair to Trading 212 I guess? Cuz Trading 212 gives us more options like buying USD stocks with lowest FX fee?
The reason it’s N/A is just because they only have ETFs and Funds denominated in £ so the FX doesn’t apply. It could be zero too. T212 should be 0.15%/0%. To be honest it’s so hard to get it all in 😅
I would imagine so because it's a UK scheme so you'd need to be a resident to take advantage of it? May be worth reaching out depending on your situation.
Can I declare my investments in Isa’s as expense?? I have to fill the self assessment and I want to declare 20.000£ of investment in Isa’s in UK. Is it possible ? Let me know please ❤
Nope lol - I wish! It's money you've paid tax on. You can however declare pension contributions - you pay 20% tax but it's given back to you in the pension - that's the best thing about pensions

Thanks 🙏 you are right. Error on my part 👍
I don't think Vanguard offer fractional investing on their ETFs. Can you confirm this. Everytime? I but an ETF I have to buy the whole unit
sounds to me that after all invest engine is better, since you dont pay Fx fees.
couldnt you just buy the non etf version if fractional shares isnt an option on a particular platform?
You could but in most platforms “funds” that aren’t ETFs have uncapped fees. So they get super expensive.
@@chrispalmer24ahhh right, thanks Chris much appreciated
I think the statement that HL's fee is capped at £3.75 is misleading as there is no such cap for fund and therefore the cost from HL is actually very high compared with others.
Capped on exchange traded funds uncapped on mutual funds, go for the ETF version and use regular investing (free) to buy more. It’s a weird stipulation I know
What about Trade Republic and Freedom24 ?
I don't believe either have an ISA?
are you able to show some examples eg low/high cost platofrms if you do £100/£500 per month into a simple index fund?
Thanks I'll consider that for the next one 😀for now hopefully it's easy to work out with the fees I've mentioned
Vanguard don’t do fractional ETFs , they do fractional index funds in my experience
Thanks - I should have said everything on there is Fractional - including stuff that isn't index funds too
What’s the reason that you think Vanguard overstates your personal rate of return. Isn’t IRR a family standard metric?
In the platform fees section you've got vanguard fees as 375/m but that's the annual cap no?
Yeah so it's a maximum of £45 per year for the Shares/ETFs - so I'm just dividing it by 12 to bring it in line with the others which are monthly, worth noting "Funds" i.e not ETF's are uncapped. Eek.
I use plum, really user friendly. Never really hear anyone talk about it though, which does worry me slightly 😅
How much are you paying? Seems you can get 0.45% reduced to 0.10% with a subscription? Do they have the all world fund? It’s hard to see from the site. Seems okay but seems a little pointless to have over invest engine to be honest just paying extra fees for no real reason, nice UI though I used them for saving
@@chrispalmer24 I currently just have their basic account, so don't pay any monthly subscription. I don't think they have a global index fund from what I've seen. The main ones I've invested in are S&P, FTSE UK, FTSE Europe, Global Tech and emerging markets. I remember getting recommended to plum a couple of years back when I was very new to it all. Was a nice route in for a beginner. But I'm now wondering whether I should switch to trading 212 or Vanguard 🤔
Trading 212 blows every other option out of the water. The 5.2% interest is so good on top of everything else!
Definitely a close second for me, the interest is really nice. Have you seen the card coming too?
What is teh easiest way to set up recurring deposit from Bank Account without paying 0.7% fee? Looks like I have to manually transfer every month and then invest thereafter, am I missing something?
@@b-m-c Choose the bank transfer option (not the instant one), and it will give you a reference and bank details which you can then use to set up a standing order from your bank account!
No not really. You can get slightly more than that guaranteed with an overnight fund such as Lyxor Smart Overnight. You are losing leaving it in cash.
I find T212 to be very restrictive in terms of individual shares available. Interactive Investor RARELY don't offer a company I am looking for, and from member it was an ISA issue and not something they weren't offering
What is there to stop me using my nieces NI number (with her consent) to open another ISA?
The FX fee of Invest Engine & Vanguard should be "N/A", not "ZERO" in your comparison category, otherwise it's not fair to Trading 212 I guess? Cuz Trading 212 gives us more options like buying USD stocks with lowest FX fee?
The reason it’s N/A is just because they only have ETFs and Funds denominated in £ so the FX doesn’t apply. It could be zero too. T212 should be 0.15%/0%. To be honest it’s so hard to get it all in 😅
@@chrispalmer24 Thanks😁
@@chrispalmer24 thanks, one small question, what's the difference between spy5 & spx5?except the currency😂
Just tried to open LISA with Dodl, and it says that currently its open only for a UK citizens, what a shame... -.-
I would imagine so because it's a UK scheme so you'd need to be a resident to take advantage of it? May be worth reaching out depending on your situation.
It's not just UK residents, it explicitly says UK citizens (and resident) only @@chrispalmer24
Can I declare my investments in Isa’s as expense?? I have to fill the self assessment and I want to declare 20.000£ of investment in Isa’s in UK. Is it possible ? Let me know please ❤
Nope lol - I wish! It's money you've paid tax on. You can however declare pension contributions - you pay 20% tax but it's given back to you in the pension - that's the best thing about pensions
