Adams Share Discussion Threads

I think they are still trying to sort out the mess from the last payment.
I recently had a letter from Israel asking for my money back, although I have
held the shares for 4 years.

I have asked about the next cash distribution from Adamind with no response as yet, could someone else send an e mail to try to get an answer..??

I like cherries. They are often nice with a sparkly white wine

[gerryjames] 20/8/2009 06:13

My fav are tomatoes with bacon.

[drbeng] 15/8/2009 00:03

I'm quite partial to pineapple. Does anyone else have a favourite fruit? Perhaps the kumquat, or the humble rambutan?

DIPSO:

Yes. This is not the issue.

Adamind have paid out on current holdings, not record date holdings.

Consequently, (whilst the aggregate payment has been made in full I believe) some investors have been overpaid, others underpaid. How easy it will be to fully recover overpayments remains to be seen.

Meanwhile those still to be fully paid are not being treated fairly and equally with other investors of the same class.

The adverse cashflow (hopefully temporary) of correcting underpayments prior to overpayment recoveries should be taken by the company, not the shareholders who sold after the record date but who are obviously entitled to have their net dividends already received topped up to gross.

yes I did that

[dipso] 30/7/2009 07:52

To those who havn't received payout.
Did you send in the requested information last year
regarding UK tax residency?

[luafc] 30/7/2009 06:13

Still waiting too.

[mocassinz] 29/7/2009 22:12

Has anyone else not received the payout yet? I sold out after the Record date and Im still waiting.

[chrisdgb] 28/7/2009 12:49

The last I was told was distribution in late Q4....

Will be interesting to see how much we get/how much needs to be held back...

Thoughts on a 'per share' payout????

6p..??

Thanks Nick have spoken to Victoria and as you said I have to write directly to the Guberman Group. Those responsible for the screw up seem to be the registrars Capita.

Either Harry or Victoria should be able to help.

nickcduk

Would you be kind enough to post the telephone number? TIA

[nickcduk] 18/7/2009 07:37

Emailed them. Ring them up if that email isn't working. I emailed Victoria directly. She will probably tell you to do the same thing. Send your cheque back with a covering letter.

[johnroger] 17/7/2009 15:45

nickcduk

email address not valid,how did you get instructions from Corfin?

[nickcduk] 16/7/2009 15:25

One thing worth pointing out is that those who have incorrectly cashed in tax refund cheques won't be that difficult to get money back from. They would be current holders of the shares as they purchased their shares after the ex-date. If that is the case then they are still in line to receive about 5-6p in additional funds. If they decide to run with the tax refund cheque it would be easy enough to with hold their share of future proceeds.

[nickcduk] 16/7/2009 15:23

Some confusion about holders who held shares via Selftrade. Because they were held in nominee but then switched to certificate holdings, the Israeli's seem to think that those shares were purchased after the ex date. Ive written a letter and sent off my stopped cheque as per Corfin's instructions.

[johnroger] 16/7/2009 14:52

I was pleased to receive a cheque for the withheld tax but less pleased to have it returned by the bank "cheque stopped".
Have emailed [e-mail] to try and get an explanation!

[luafc] 09/7/2009 13:31

nick: not sure - depends whether nominee brokers have been sent one cheque or a number of component cheques. If the former, then in theory if only one out of all those forming part of a nominee holding sold ex-return of capital, then might not Adamind request a full broker return prior to a reissue?

My broker says he has been asked to return funds (he is resisting on practicality grounds: the cheque(s) has(have) been presented!), though on reflection I don't know whether he was referring only to individuals affected or everybody within the full nominee holding. He did say there were a few affected.

Secondly, why should individuals suffer because of company/adviser incompetence? The cashflow effect should be taken by the company: i.e. those not fully paid should be settled now with the company taking the adverse cashflow effect of chasing overpayments, some of which might prove hard to recover for all I know. Why should affected top-ups wait for recovery first? I thought all shareholders were supposed to be treated equally.

Finally, for those hoping to receive a final payment I would suggest delays over the past year/18 months and events like this are hardly conducive to managing anything that might be leftover efficiently.

[nickcduk] 09/7/2009 12:48

Only those who sold after the shares went ex-return of capital are affected. Don't think too many are in that boat.

[gbill11] 09/7/2009 11:57

Ive seen it all now.
