Introduction of FX Conversion Fee

First of all excellent spin @David reminded me of this :stuck_out_tongue:

2nd. Iā€™ve written many times how I donā€™t mind a flat periodic fee, rather than ā€œfuture percent feesā€ thatā€™ll creep up.

0.15% might be lower (definitely not lowest) than other brokers, but other brokers does not force you to convert money unless you have to. Because you know what? they support multiple currencies.

this change literally made The ā€œfree brokerā€ T212 more expensive to use than ā€œpremium brokerā€ interactive investor, since I rarely need to convert between currencies and dividends arrive in their respective currency accounts.

well done!

on a side note good thing this happened before introduction of SIPP, now there is no reason to transfer here.
