Definitely don't want paper, online ideally the way to go for me. I don't mean absolute safety just more in terms of ease of use balanced with the risk of the platform going AWOL or somesuch.Paper is safest, but also the most awkward if trying to sell, as broker must be in possession of cert before they will sell! If you need to post the cert, then you have to use registered post and the price on date of receipt in brokers office could be different to the price on date of posting. The price you will receive is the price on selling date! Nominee account is faster when selling, not as safe, but if you are suspicious of everything, what's the purpose of living!
Is it that Revolut is cheaper than Degiro even with fees?Revolut has higher fees. Degiro gets easy to use after a while. It will be cheaper than Degiro. What ever you use, get your referral bonus if you can.
Davy are not cheap but do have an easy to use interface.
The safest way is paper certs but its prob impossible at this stage to do so.
Been using DeGiro for years, no complaints.

+1There's also Interactive Brokers, which has the advantage of having an Irish subsidiary, regulated by the Central Bank of Ireland, so you don't have the problem discussed in another thread (about Degiro) of trying to deal with foreign regulators if something goes wrong. When currency conversion is included, it might also be quite a bit cheaper than some of the other options for that amount of money. If you find the Degiro interface confusing then you probably won't like the Interactive Brokers one, though.
