Hi all, is anyone else aware of the zero commission stock trading by trading 212?
I'm currently using HL so obviously this caught my eye. However, they don't hold share certificates in the users names, therefore if their IT fails, could you end up losing shares/equity?
Additionally, when holding CFD's, you only receive a net dividend. Im assuming that holding equities via T212 would mean you should receive the gross dividend. (I've emailed for clarification)
I've used eToro in the past, and found it to be quite a good platform. But, i want equties as opposed to CFD's in shares.
Unfortunately, things aren't wrapped up in an ISA, meaning that investments may not be as well suited for long term as say those on HL.
I'd like to use them on riskier stocks (Carillion, dominoes?) in which i can put a few 100's in without being stung for £12 +0.5% in, £12 out.
Anyway, i've raised this for discussion so i can hopefully make a more informed decision whether to use them or not.
Cheers
