Good Points: There are no exit charges as with others as you may need to get my money out earlier.
Bad Points: There is an annual management charge of 1.5%
I found it difficult to get information at teh begining about Foresters. The good thing about this ISA is that the minimum monthly premium is £20, so I dont even notice the money leaving your account. Easy to set up just need £20 to set up ISA. There is an annual management charge of 1.5% which I am not happy about. There are no exit charges, as with a previous ISA my patnerr needed the money quickly and he was charged with closing down the account so that it has no charges is a bonus. over all good investment. My partner recommends

Good Points: Easy to open a simple form and identification. My advisor filled in everything for me.
Bad Points: Not much contact with the company its been running over a year and I have yet to have a statement of account.
The company is run in a interesting way to me. They are there for the investors and not out for profits. I like the way that when you join them you are more like a family and get invites to trips out and local meetings them are also very friendly, maybe a little too friendly for some peoples liking! I need to have a little more information on the product and feel they should send statements every 6 months so you can see the value of your investments. I have recomended them to my friends and family and would only do this if I felt I could trust them which of course I do.

Good Points: It is a great way to earn tax-free interest on your savings and investments. I found that it was really easy to open this ISA and I liked the fact that I could set up a monthly direct debit to make further contributions if I wanted to.
Bad Points: I would prefer to pay a lower percentage rate for the annual management charge.
I found that this was a good stocks and shares ISA to open. I was particularly impressed with the Forester Friendly Society benefits that you receive when you open this ISA. For instance I now am able to receive financial protection when I need it most and I get access to exclusive discounts and savings. The Annual Management Fee for operating this ISA is reasonable (2-3%), but of course I would have preferred a lower charge. I feel that at least I have got good value for my ISA overall, because I receive the Forester Friendly Society benefits too. I ultimately believe that I have made a sensible investment by opening up this ISA. I would regard this as a long-term investment because it is based on stocks and shares.

Good Points: very good and uderstandable...Easy online access Ethical fund
Bad Points: no bad things
It is the one am looking for and very nice...We choose the Family Investment Ethical Child Trust Fund because of its ethical base and the information available also showed the fund to be performing well. It was easy to open the account and we have online access. As an added bonus we received some vouchers for setting up a direct debit. I haven't checked out its performance recently and so am not sure if the good performance is continuing. Would recommend this fund.When we received the voucher for our son we had a lot on (don't well all!) and so it got put to one side. Finally I got round to sorting it out. I did quite a bit of investigating and found the MyEggNest.com site most useful.
