Advantages: good, fast, efficient site

Disadvantages: bit expensive

I have been using this service for a while as a rather convenient way of taking my saving and reducing their value. But I must say that the website as a whole is very good and I have been very impressed with it's performance.

Signup was easy and the whole process was very prompt and efficient. You fill in the forms and they send you some information that you sign and return and then transfer the money into your account and away you go.

To buy and sell shares is very easy with this site, simply follow the on screen instructions and away you go. The prices for trading are not the cheapest on the market, but they do go down with the more trades you do.

One charge that I think is a bit unfair is to make a charge periodically for the number of stocks, this is not a massive charge but it does add up and make the service far from being the cheapest on the market.

The website does prompt you for your password a lot but that is obviously there to protect your interests. But I think it may overdo it a little bit.

There is a wealth of information available on the site in the form of well written research ang doo history. Overall a very good site but their charges could be a bit cheaper.
