Great offering, wide range of funds and decent fees. I've never had to contact them so cannot comment on customer support . Reviewed on: 29th August 2024

A wide variety of funds are available.

A wide variety of funds are available. The fee is low if into the portfolio there are only funds. Slightly more expensive with etf and shares. With pensions is better to invest in funds only. It's offered also a wide variety of already made portfolio. Reviewed on: 4th February 2024
