Share Dealing firms (Stockbrokers), like CFD companies, charge a commission for every trade. They usually apply fixed commission per trade, important thing to notice here is that stockbrokers usually have special commissions (lower commissions) for active traders (please refer to notes for active trader commission). Online discount stockbrokers charge very low commission and it is difficult to find a share dealing firm with excellent customer service, it really varies between companies. Above is the list of discount share dealing companies ordered by their customer rating.
