The best

5
I’ve tried a range of brokers and for me FreeTrade is the best. The main benefit is the simplicity and ease-of-.use. Powerful feature like limit orders are made super easy. The range of stocks is also excellent with new ones being added constantly. Interest on cash balance is also great. Reviewed on: 6th April 2023

Going in the wrong direction

2
Two fee increases in less than a year and an increase in fx fees all whilst there is a slow drip of 'features' already available at competitors and customer service and speed of dividend payments keeps slipping. It is a real shame to see the erosion of a company I once used to enjoy and recommend. Reviewed on: 6th April 2023

Excellent way to get into trading

5
I have wanted to dip my toes in the water with shares for a long time but always got put of by the institute of it all. Free-trade has given a way to get into shares that is very simple and private, easy to understand and get going with. I had no idea about a stocks isa but when I their info made it simple to understand and the account seems good value for a low monthly fee. The platform is easy to use and very reliable.

Great Trading Platform

5
Freetrade is a great way to start investing starting from a very small amount of money. You can have a GIA or ISA and easily fund the account, buy and trade shares, or buy and hold and watch your investments / holdings grow. No extortionate fees, no greedy stockbrokers to pay and low minimum amounts, unlike some banks and so called reputable investment brokers. Reviewed on: 6th April 2023

Cheapest SIPP and ISA on the market

The plus tier is crazy cheap when factoring in the cost of having both a SIPP and ISA. App is simple to use and customer service is great! Reviewed on: 6th April 2023
