Users of online broker Interactive Investor are outraged by what they complain are ‘disappointing’ changes to its free research account facility. Interactive runs two types of accounts, a paid-for trading account for customers wishing to trade stocks and invest in funds, and a popular free research account for people wanting to put together portfolios of investments without trading them. This free ‘virtual’ account allows users to set up multiple portfolio watchlists, track UK and international shares, investment trusts, pension funds, and cash.
