Charges for UK shares

[zhonga]

HI,

I am currently being charged 0.5% for some of the UK shares I purchased (only in the buy trades). According to the website, it says that it is free to trade UK shares, which seemed to be the case for some of my trades. I want to know why there are charges applied to certain UK shares.

Thanks

Thanks for your post. 

Please reach out to helpdesk.uk@ig.com and ask them to investigate your commission charges. 

There are some commissions that change if you wish to place larger orders (over £25,000 consideration) at one time. If you did not ask to be put on % commission rather than the set commission let us know. 

All the best
