I saw that Trade Republic were listed as offering high rates in the best buys thread.
I signed up to open an account (move from Bunq) but it transpires that they hold funds in escrow for trading in stocks etc. -- and one is required to tick the box accepting that.
Can one just use it for on-demand deposit? The listing in the best buy thread states that a deposit guarantee applies.
As an aside, what is the sentiment on trading on a platform like this? I've never done it, and feel it would be foolhardy to mess with funds I can't afford to lose.
