    a 1% per annum charge comes in at 1/365 % = 0.0027% per day

    0.27% per day equates to a 100% charge per annum.

    Did you just miss some zero's out ... or is someone really offering you this 'deal' ?

    Or am I misunderstanding something ?

    no they do what I did in the calc above ... calculate 0.27% on the balance that day then divide it by 365.25 probably being the number of days a year ...

    But it is 0.27% per annum ... calculated daily.

    As to how good it is ... ISA's are not supposed to be more than 1% pa charges ... so it's well under that ... but as to how it compares to others I don't know.

    It is not the cheapest around but it is quite reasonably priced.

    5 years is the minimum term that I would suggest for equity investment because of the peaks and troughs that do occur.

    If you are saving for a few years for a deposit get accumulation units if possible so that dividends are re-invested automatically.

    Units come in 2 types. Distribution units which pay out the dividends which arise and Accumulation units which retain the dividends and increase the capital value.

    Preferably, investments should be held within an ISA so that you can sell in a hurry without worrying about Capital Gains Tax.
