Thanks Sue looked at 0800 shares no anything about them

Sorry don't anything about them...though I can give you the thumbs up about Comdirect.

Barclays or Comdirect seem OK . Anybody use Smile. Recently openned an internet account with them for the interest paid on Current accounts. (Nothing to put into it at the moment but noticed they have share dealing facilities)

Just had a quick look at Smile.

May use it sometime. I think it sometimes sensible not to have all one's eggs in one basket.

If there are users, feedback might be useful.

One of the brokers I use is Hoodless & Brennan. http://www.hoodlessbrennan.com/index1.htm

I also have a account with Comdirect, who are very good, but prefer the
Hoodless & Brennan account because, they have additional facilities to
Comdirect account, plus they actually send all the annual reports, dividend
recipts & voting papers to me - which although Comdirect is supposed to do the
same - they don't.

gerrards, i `ve no problem recommending these,a bit more expensive than some but they will accommodate all types of traders to suit everyone.

Hi cathbroadly,
Why use a broker?

Hello Ajren what do you suggest other than a broker.

Hi cathbroadly,

I was joking.
