That's how I always feel when I place my trust in Lightyear and watch it grow day after day, in a company that strives since the first day to improve what is already perfect, with a amazing dedication.

The App and the customer service is exemplary

5
I use the Stocks and Shares ISA and have been extremely impressed with the app, especially its style and its easy use. It makes investing easy and the insights are particularly helpful given the vast range of ETFs on offer. What impressed me the most was the customer service, as they supported my transfer of SAYE shares into my ISA despite it not being an offered service, going the extra mile is a complete breath of fresh air as a lot of firms say no when its not on offer.
