Shares / Re: Easy Equities, any opinions?

Have been using Easy Equities along side my "main" account with ABSA - when they started, around 6 months or now. On the whole have been pretty pleased with them - prices are pretty much the same when I double check with the ABSA account. Not great for very small shares though - not sure what the deal is. Prices to trade are fantastic - around 1% - and that starts at R500 or so. So great for guys on a bit of a budget - plus no monthly fees.
Only had one problem - they took dividend off a REIT interest payment - and then told me I was wrong when I pointed out their error. They did though sort it out though.
Once they did not credit a payment - they sorted that out quickly though.
Might make use of the TFSA - impressed that it is all set up ready to go, give them a big thumbs up for that.
For most people it will tick all the boxes if you looking for long term, mid/normal shares and for guys on smaller budgets - you can also buy ETF's through them.
