I switched from HL to iii.
The main reason was because although the iii platform looks like it was designed by a twelve-year-old it works ok.
And they charge me £200 not £2000 a year.
Or something like that.

Fidelity is a total rip-off too.

So far I have been able to do everything on iii that I could on HL (and on Fidelity when I used that).
What costs to change if you don't mind spilling the beans ?

Ah... zero I think.

I think iii charge £20 a quarter for an ISA and trading account (which you get back in free trades).
And £196 a year for a SIPP.

Fido and HL just emptied my accounts and gave all the holdings to iii.

I think!
Cheers
