Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the platform for its user-friendliness, highlighting the ease of setting up accounts and managing investments. Many appreciate the intuitive design of both the website and the app, making it simple to navigate and understand their portfolios. A significant number of people also commend the company for its competitive pricing, frequently mentioning the zero or very low fees as a major benefit and a reason for switching from other providers. However, some customers also noted issues with the account setup process, describing it as confusing and time-consuming. A few other people experienced technical difficulties, such as the app or portfolio information not updating correctly, or persistent "Something went wrong" errors, which hindered their ability to use the service effectively.

Very easy & straightforward to invest

Very easy & straightforward to invest, but once a customer they bombard you with messages & emails (often saying the same thing) which is really annoying. Sometimes too much communication is simply that; too much!

Poor customer service and delayed account update

I requested a change of email address and provided verification documents (passport and driving licence) as requested.
After one week, the change has still not been completed. I have followed up via the app and also requested that a formal complaint be raised, but after more than 72 hours I have not received a response.
This has been frustrating, as I expected a quicker resolution given that all required ID was provided promptly.
Based on this experience, I am considering moving my account elsewhere.

Hi Suki,

Thanks for your feedback, we understand how frustrating delays like this can be, especially when you’ve already provided all the required documents.

Requests such as email address changes can take a little time to process as they involve security and verification checks, but you should have received clearer communication and more timely updates while this was being handled.

Please contact us at support@investengine.com
(or reply to your existing email) with “Trustpilot review” in the subject line, and we’ll prioritise your request and provide an update on both the change and your complaint.

We take account security seriously, but we also recognise the importance of resolving requests promptly and keeping you informed throughout.

InvestEngine from HL

I've moved from HL, the fees were painful and I felt disappointed in how they didn't offer basic tools such as Direct Debit/Debit Card auto clearing of these, instead selling off my assets. InvestEngine has become my go to, its transparent, simple to use and effective. The one slight niggle is that in exchange for the free trading, you get one trading cycle each day. They are clear about this and in my view a very small thing when you consider the savings of fees, transparency and easy trading. I'm a novice investor but have been able to take my learnings from HL and simply move them over with zero fees!

Good app, website, choice of funds & information updates.

Very easy to use app and website. Intuitive, simple to navigate and clearly presented. Good standard of information regarding transactions and portfolio performance. Wide range of fund options available. Only one minor negative is the multi-factor authentication methods; I would prefer the option to use one continuing user-defined memorable phrase as part of the MFA login process, rather than a system-generated single-use phrase unique to each login attempt. This current process may carry a higher risk of user error at login.

No IE managed GIA

Everything I want to do is simple, except the GIA that cannot be managed by IE. There appears to be no date at which this option will be reinstated.
