IWeb Share Dealing Reviews 746

From login to trading, the interface is so abysmal. Clearly whomever designed this abomination has never tried using it. With the increase in the FSCS limit it is now possible to leave.

This company is now called SCOTISH WIDOWS Share dealings.
Help via chat is great. since name change there seems to be communication issues when requesting ISA transfers. before name change did not have any problems. to be fair online chat is very good.
HAFSA was very friendly and understanding.

BACS for cash withdrawals, took the full 3 days. What decade are we living in?

Helpful assistance via chat providing answers to a couple of queries

I had a question about partial transfers from another provider. Shareen responded quickly and told me specifically what I needed to do to achieve what I wanted. Very helpful!

I would like to express my appreciation for Shareen’s support. Shareen was extremely helpful and ensured that all my queries regarding were addressed promptly and thoroughly. The information provided was clear, accurate, and comprehensive, which made the process much easier for me. Thank you for your excellent assistance and commitment to delivering great service.

Always a great experience, ask a question get a comprehensive answer quickly. Handover from bot to human, if required, is fast.

I am a pensioner and I decided to enhance my existing annuity to cover the extra burden of inflation. So I submitted a request to cash in a large part of my Iweb SIPP on about 15/9. It was loaded onto their Embark transfer system on 26/9. Today 23/10, almost 6 weeks after my request, they say that they still have technical issues with Embark and cannot say when the money will be with my annuity provider. I am assuming therefore that many other customers must be impacted. But, note they took the funds out of my account on 6/10, so I have had no benefit from these investments since then. I raised a formal complaint which was logged by them on 17/10, saying that they would call me back, but of course they haven’t. Nor has anyone called me back, though they have promised to do so, after my numerous calls to them, which have cost me a fortune. I do wonder whether all this is due to the Scottish Widows full acquisition of Iweb, as In have never had problems before that. I have used Iweb since 2014 for ISA and 2021 for SIPP but i will now be moving everything to an alternative, if or when they are ever able to allow me to do this! I obviously havent started this yet as they unable to even transfer part of the SIPP!

I found the online help feature super quick and the agent had the answer to all of my questions.

A quick business like attention to my query

Great service, excellent value for money, I have been with IWEB for years now and have no intention of leaving!

Got info needed and person took time to go to colleague who had originally called me with a query.

I really like Iweb - the platform is super easy to use and when I have slightly more complex issues the contact centre (Shareen on this occasion) are very helpful

Got very quickly to the nub of the matter, confirming my original thought. Answer was clear and straight forward.

I've used iWeb for years and everything has worked well. I am currently not very active in dealing and it's great that there are no regular account payments.
I recently had a query on a transfer in from another ISA provider which was dealt with speedily by Shareen on the help desk.

Locked my pension so I couldn't sell an investment when I needed to. Chat advised I need to complete AML, email somewhere. What investment companies do that so randomly? Not a dormant account, while access to all other accounts remain.

Won't be staying much longer
