I have moved from Interactive Brokers and can enjoy mobile-first platform with user friendly UX. Was a bit upset by not being able to buy a whole share, but developers made that possible in the recent update, so all good now. Reviewed on: 14th March 2024

Fantastic user experience and great support in general

Fantastic user experience and great support in general. I like how the app gives you access to loads of different investment vehicles and innovates (e.g. treasury bonds). This helps the little man play in the same league as big hedge funds. Also, I'm a big fan of their share referral scheme and the regular investment option. Reviewed on: 14th March 2024
