best spread betting service?

I suppose it depends on trading styles. My intraday stratergy works really well with such tight spread in the indices.

as for the fin spreads i dont really like the at all, i trade mini CFDs with them and they never used to execude my orking orders for example today i had sell order for XTA at 990 and they didnt execude my order, but if you have stop orders they will execute them every time.

practice makes perfect...

If your new to it make sure you do a bit of practice first. http://www.bullbearings.co.uk is a really good simulation which lets you get a grip on things before you end up losing a packet!

A friend of mine managed to open an account with D4F whilst living in Spain.
I think he may have had to provide a UK address though. - Check with them.

I use IG. A problem I have is when using a trailing stop loss to lock in a profit I can't get it as close to the current price as I would like - and the gap varies considerably, even, apparently, on the same stock at different times.

Does anyone have experience of this with other services which allow for tighter spreads?

use IG/CS - although just looking at CMC - very nice interface IMO - spreads on commodities / uk stocks OK.

Capital Spreads is my own favourite by far.

I believe that they have probably only the second-tightest spreads, overall. But they definitely have the best customer service by a long way, and they rightly pride themselves on it.

Also, you can use the platform through your works firewall which is nice. I can't use Cantor through the firewall.
I use Spreadex but the spreads are the widest on the market and there's no online trading - phone only. Hmmmm, must change.
