Has anybody used Degiro for their account or would they consider using their service? https://www.degiro.co.uk/
The fees look extremely low.
Early days (they've only been in UK since June) but my experience with them is fine so far.
The fees are indeed far cheaper than other brokers, but the main reason I've used them is that they cover pretty much all the EU stock markets, unlike my ISA or SIPP brokers.
Also transactions from a GBP account on Euro Shares are made using an 'interbank' type rate whereas most brokers will charge a sneaky commission.
They don't do ISA or SIPPs yet, and they are regulated by the Dutch authorities so the guaranteed amount if the Company went belly up is less than the UK.
Against that Degiro argue that client funds are properly escrowed in a separate legal entity, so are actually more secure than with most banks or brokers.
