A Truly Outstanding

Review: Five Stars for AJ Bell – A Truly Outstanding Investment Partner From the moment I logged in, AJ Bell impressed me with its clean, intuitive interface and lightning-fast performance. Navigating between my Stocks and Shares ISA, SIPP and General Investment Account was effortless, and the clear dashboard breakdown meant I could see exactly where my money was working hardest at a glance. Whether I’m a seasoned trader or someone just getting started, AJ Bell’s platform strikes the perfect balance between simplicity and depth. What really sets AJ Bell apart is its exceptional blend of **low, transparent fees** and **powerful portfolio analysis tools**. I’ve saved hundreds in trading costs thanks to their competitive pricing, yet still enjoy advanced charting, real-time market data and bespoke watchlists that rival premium platforms. Whenever I’ve had questions—whether about tax-efficient wrappers or the mechanics of a dividend payout—their UK-based support team has been prompt, friendly and deeply knowledgeable, turning what could be a headache into a straightforward chat. Finally, I’ve found true peace of mind knowing AJ Bell looks after over £90 billion of customer assets and serves nearly 600,000 clients. Their unwavering commitment to security, compliance and ongoing innovation means I sleep easier at night, confident my investments are in the safest hands. If you’re seeking an investment partner that combines rock-solid reliability, unbeatable value and next-level tools, look no further than AJ Bell. Highly recommended!

A wise choice for investments.

I looked at a number of investment platforms before deciding on AJ Bell. Their open approach to investing made it very easy to understand how to Invest and what areas of investment one may choose. It could be shares, isa, cash, etf funds etc. The straight forward explanation of fees is easy to understand and the investment platform is very easy to use. I don't use a phone to invest so I don't know what AJ Bell's platform is like; bit I can say the computer or Tablet format is great for me. One of the best things with AJ Bell is the weekly Shares magazine and the fact one is not plagued with emails all day. The daily market report is short and sweet, and you can always dig deeper if required. Reviewed on: 4th March 2025

Good accessibility but fees not cheap

So easy to use.

I looked at many dealing websites before choosing AJ Bell. Weekly shares magazine is excellent and AJ Bell emails are not over the top. Always a joy to read. Reviewed on: 15th July 2023

easy to speak to expert staff. Handled share transfers promptly & kept me informed. Add in free share magazine to make a very good package. Reviewed on: 1st February 2022

Does what it says on the label

Whilst not the cheapest platform in the market , their is enough enriched functionality that allows direct retail customer access to vast array of investments . STP is available on majority of the new money transactions except where employers are concerned and also money out(which needs some technology enhancement to help drive forward the industry) Reviewed on: 10th March 2021
