Back in 1996, The Share Centre introduced one of the lowest-ever minimum commissions for buying shares: just £2.50. And that offer is still available to you today. What's more, you only need an investment of £20 to get started.
Investing on a regular basis can be a good way of building up your investments. And when you want to do that, our Regular Investment Service makes it easy.
Tell us where you want to invest each month, how much and when, and we'll do the rest.
We'll collect your money by direct debit from your bank (you can choose from 3 convenient dates), pay it into your account and then make your purchase.
To avoid inundating you with paper, we'll show all your regular purchases on your annual account statement, and you can see the individual details anytime through your online account.
Monthly investing can have the advantage of averaging out the cost of your investment. Because you invest the same amount of money each month, when a share price goes down you buy more shares, and when it goes up you buy less. That way you don't have to worry about getting the timing of your purchases absolutely right - you effectively end up with a total number of shares bought at an average price over time.
You can change your monthly instructions anytime, but do please allow 10 working days before your next investment is due.
We're great believers in treating all our customers equally. Every customer can take advantage of information and expert advice - free of charge - regardless of how much they invest. Our services for new customers are equally available to existing customers, and we'll tell you if a new service is launched that could offer better value. Our website includes ways of helping you work out which account or dealing tariff could suit you best, and if you want to switch at a later date, you can.
Our value-for-money approach doesn't make us popular with our competitors but we don't think that will worry you! We like healthy competition - it keeps us on our toes and it's good for you too.
Our friendly team is available from 08:00 to 18:00 Monday to Friday to answer your questions and you've direct access to a wealth of information, news, views and comment online here at our website 24 hours, seven days a week on the internet. You can also deal with us by post, fax and email. It's your choice - whatever suits you best. It's a formula that works for our customers who entrust us with over £1 billion of their precious investments.
