Financial advisors - how should they charge?

[CountessDracula]

DH has a new FA and he has sorted out some ISAs and stuff for him recently. He has charged him £200 plus his commission (ongoing)

I always thought that they either worked on a charge OR commission. Whenever I have dealt with them in the past I have paid them and then they have refunded the commission to me

Anyone?

bump

i seem to remember some people with FA dhs or parents

Ours is FOC, gets paid by the company if he sells us their products - is that what you mean by commission?

yes it is
