Interesting company in terms of opportunities but there technology sand features of their trading facility now look very datedJust moved our company account away as quite poor serviceIf they overall their technology and introduce an iPhone & Android App they will certainly start to move forward as lots of opportunities out there to increase market shareAt the moment their proposition does appeal to younger tech savvy investors which is a great shame

LOL. The header has been hacked by some clever individual. Nothing to do with me.

Hi Steelwatch,
The JIM chart is nice to look at (for long term holder) but the picture is even nicer.

Hi Steelwatch,
I tend to trade online but remember something being said about trading on tablets etc. I had it in my mind that was the reason for Jarvis to upgrade their security. Wrong again and thanks for asking the question :) .

The forthcoming results should be interesting !. I struggled with security pass-words etc for the new system and if i was not a shareholder in JIM i may have looked elsewhere. I wonder how many people thought the same !. Also i read snippets that trading in the US and UK were very quiet over the summer months !. Not long to wait to find out if that was true.

Regards.

Hi ten, at one time there was an iPhone app, but it was withdrawn. Just emailed info@sharedealactive to ask whether they intend introducing apps for that + Android, but they say they have no plans to at present.

However, it is possible to deal on line via browser app, e.g., Firefox, Chrome etc., in the same way as on a PC or Mac, if that helps?

There is nothing like a market sell off and buy back to add to JIM's bottom line.

Bring on the DRIP

:)


PS, i do not have a tablet or up-to-date smart phone so i would not be in need of the service. As Jarvis launched their service to be able to deal on new technology ?.

Thanks

DRIPS in :)

Q4 declaration due on or before 13 November.

[steelwatch] 08/9/2014 18:29

Recent dip means more DRIP :)

[tenapen] 08/9/2014 17:59

Im still to do the change, but with no money there is no rush for me.

Had a quick play with the new site.

At least once you are logged in the website doesn't boot you out after 200 seconds of inactivity like the old site. That's about the only upside though.

The trading form just plain sucks.

First you have to lookup the security which takes a long time and often comes back with unrecognised security even though you select it from a drop down list - eg SUMM.L

Some securities just cant be entered - for example CAPD.L - I just cannot find a way to enter this security on the trading form.
CAPD does not work
CAPD.L does not work
Capital does not work.
Capital Drilling does not work

Yet it sure exists on the LSE

and can be found on their site via all of the above search terms.

If they'd used standard forms then my browser could have auto-filled my password but they've decided against that so now I have to re-enter my password for each trade - this could lead people to opt for easier to enter cryptographically weak passwords - Im certainly thinking of changing mine to something easier to enter...

IMO, this just has not been well thought through nor tested and makes me question the competency of those who developed it. The security while superficially improved may well be full of holes under the hood.

shame this has hacked off a few investors. I managed to activate both my accounts in one process with no problems.

Personally I like the new website and also welcome the added security. Still think this is a decent company and I'll be staying put

[steelwatch] 08/9/2014 12:34

If you can't get through on the support number quoted, try another number - e.g., dealing desk - who will transfer you. Then you may have to hold several minutes judging from my experience earlier.

[steelwatch] 08/9/2014 12:06

Basically no different to security logging on to my on-line bank account, and there is a facility to go back in and change security phrase and password to something more memorable as often as you like via the Help and Administration tab after logging in.

Personally, I welcome the added security in a world where cyber crime gets ever more sophisticated.

[steelwatch] 02/9/2014 12:16

New on-line trading platform should be launched on 06/09/2014

Thanks NickK1.

Very good write up about Jarvis by Simon Thompson in the I.C. with a buy recommendation and a target price of between 580 and 600 with plenty of upside from there. Excellent analysis of the present position and a very detailed report. Simon Thompson is very keen on JIM - well worth a read.
