    Anyone received a contact from Sharewatch recently regarding accounts that are not being used and being charged a non use fee. They are contacting these accounts and advising users of the charge and offering to trade the accounts on users behalf. Any views :confused:

    There can be conflicts of interest, and financial companies will always look after themselves before you.

    Take the example of Salomon Brothers from the 'Liars poker' book. The jist of it was that Salomen bought a load of bonds/shares which turned out to be a dog, to save themselves they resold them onto their own customer, by bigging them up as being a great investment.

    You don't want your account being used to cover someones losses.
