Introduction of FX Conversion Fee

Like many of you, I’m also unhappy that Trading 212 have introduced another fee, especially after boasting about the profitability of the ISA & INVEST platforms with this statement just over 2 months ago:

They say they need the money to finance the development of new features, but they’ve been able to introduce the innovative and complicated Pie feature while remaining profitable. If they’re not planning to introduce multi-currency accounts or Flexible ISAs (the two features I want, selfishly), I’m struggling to imagine what major developments they’re planning that could justify abandoning their unique selling point (USP) of being truly free for customers.
