Avoid at any cost Expensive platform, members are clueless folks passing misinformation to novices and insulting anyone who disagree...great examples are the matd chat with clowns like ojay and friends who will insult you actively if you disagree with their fantasy views of a 3 pence per share failed oil company about to go bust at any moment...they also comment that everyday they buy 50k and they never show up as major shareholders anywhere. Better options for trading out there and cheaper,a looooot cheaper than this rubbish.

A great free source of information on shares I have used the LSE Forum for nearly 8 years and yes, there are lots of rampers, certainly on the most volatile stocks, as there is on any shares’ forum. They are easy to spot, laugh at and ignore. The information that LSE provide on individual shares is as good as you’ll get in most other places and it’s free. On the odd occasion their Website does go down, but so do many other similar sites. Overall I am more than happy with LSE, hence the 5 Stars, and still use them more than any other site for information about shares. I also find it much more user friendly than ADVFN and it is one of the few places that you can still view recent trades, albeit 15 minutes delayed unless you pay the extra fee.

Lack of investment in website = broken company Just warning folks not to spend any money with this company - their website has been slow and broken for years, clearly a lack on investment in back end systems is to blame. As of the last few weeks the chat part of the site is largely down during trading hours. When it is working it is mostly populated by teams of rampers promoting poor stocks to unwary site visitors, there appears to be no active admin to deal with this, so one has to wonder the implications of lse.co.uk supporting this behaviour.... I am closing my account with them today

if could give minus stars I would if could give minus stars I would! Admin are totally useless, BB's over run with Trolls winding folk up for fun. Boiler house crews trying to drive a share price down. LSE doesn't give a dam! Well they will when no posters left and their advertising revenue goes down the pan. Terrible company, unless you are a troll and you are welcome. Otherwise you may can canned as they gang up on you and report,,,,,,,,,,,,,

It's a great free site It's a great free site. I keep my portfolio under watchlists which gives me the share movement and the RNS at about 7am. My only niggle is it ignores dividends. The share chat is a bit of a joke but who takes any notice of that. It's inhabited by traders not investors. Do your own research.
