‘Not enough to show value for money’
Megan Thomas, Which? investments writer, says:
Fidelity International doesn’t have as many stocks or other investments to choose from as some of the other platforms – close to 6,000, compared to 24,000 for the platform with the most.
However, Fidelity has a wide range of accessibility features and offers services such as third-party access (giving permission to a relative or carer to manage money on your behalf) and ‘next-generation text’ (to help communicate on the phone via text relay), which other platforms don’t.
Users gave Fidelity just two stars for value for money, and our analysis of fees found it was one of the most expensive platforms for investors with less than £50,000 in their portfolio.
However, customers on a regular savings plan (essentially a direct debit set up to regularly invest) will gain access to lower-cost investing.
What do customers say about Fidelity International?
Fidelity International customers scored it 69%, making it 16th in our survey.
Comments from Fidelity International customers who took part in our survey include:
- ‘Simple to use, easy to understand website and app. Lots of information about investments and plenty of choice. When calling (not very often) easy to deal with.’
- ‘It’s a competent though rather unsophisticated platform. Charges are reasonable but by no means the best.’
- ‘I like the platform for regular updates, articles and choice of investments. I find it easy to use and when I have needed to talk to them, I have found them communicative. Good. My only reservation is overall cost which is something I will be looking into in the future.’
