A slightly basic, but good quality service 5 of 5 Ciao Users found the following review helpful
Rating from PaulRoss 4 Stars ()

Advantages Instant trading, cheap to use, reliable

Disadvantages Slightly clunky website

I've been trading with sharepeople.com for several months now and I can recommend their service. However, users should be aware that virginmoney.com actually links to sharepeople.com but only charges £14.95 per trade, as opposed to £17.95 a trade by sharepeople.com.
Trading is executed immediately and a contract note is sent to you by post and also via email. The site is easy to navigate and dealing can be done without certification (ie you can buy and then sell 1 minute later). Although the site is not presented to you in the nicest way, it is still usable. The site doesn't contain much information on stocks or companies, it is purely a facilitator of trades.

When you register you are given a royal bank of scotland account, which you pay your initial money into. All trades then access this account and any profit is placed here too. You can transfer money directly in via smile.co.uk so all of your trading can be done online, without have to worry about cheques (apart from those you write yourself when you take profit ^_^). All in all, it's a good service, but if you want to use it then I suggest you use www.virginmoney.com which will give you the same service (apart from US dealing) for cheaper.

Stock market dealing though, can become addictive ^_^
