Quick review of fool.com (Motley Fool)

DON'T.....They're just a postal service. If anything goes wrong, it's never their fault -as they can't be held liable for the actions of the 'market makers' who fulfill, or not, the/your transactions. This happened to me today. I placed an order to sell well before the close on Friday - the third party never returned the order - as unexecuted - till after market hours - losing me a good 20% - the Fool Sharedealing position: It's not us.
Go with a sharedealing service that's a market-maker in it's own right, these franchises are not really competent to manage the buying and selling of your shares. The ability to execute a buy, or especially a sell, is really quite fundamental. The IT infrastructure is simply not in place, as it takes nearly ten minutes to apply the execute order and who knows how long for the order to be filled. It's a basic thing and it isn't sorted.
