Transfer timescales

Most transfers can be completed electronically. Our usual timescales for electronic transfers of cash and UK shares is around 10 working days. Funds and international shares can take longer.

During the transfer process there could be a period of time when your investments or cash may not be accessed, therefore you may not be able to act on market movements.

If your current broker is unable to transfer electronically it can take around 6 weeks for cash and UK shares. Fund and international shares can take up to 10 weeks.

Due to the unprecedented demand for our service transfers are taking longer than usual. Transfers are currently taking up to 12 weeks and there is currently a delay of 3 weeks to log your initial request. We are working hard to process transfers as quickly as possible and apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.
