"BT customers in need of some help might be happy to hear this latest news from the broadband supplier. The telecoms firm has just revealed that every call that is now made to its service centres will be answered in the UK and never overseas."

Somebody should send BT chart to the remuneration committee...more bonuses all round...

Talking of Telewest...that brings back bad memories...The Marconi and Energis...

[optomistic] 06/2/2020 18:26

BT reminds me of Telewest (another of my failures) spent a pile of money laying all the cables then admin! only to be picked up for next to nothing by no doubt a prearranged buyer. After a couple of ownership changes I now PAY THEM nearly £50 a month for my broadband etc. makes me sick but that's how it is :-/
Keep laying the new wires BT and building up the debt!

Dividend re-invested with a yield of 9.73% that's just crazy. Even if the dividend is cut by half it's still a good dividend.

sold this morning at about 1.61 to show a loss of 50%

not my finest buy.

the problems we are having with BT at work do not fill me with confidence.

A call centre in the Philippines? Who's brain wave was that.
They cannot be understood.

I am out but sore to lose half my cash

Clearly some American hedge fund is shorting this.
& anyone know why BT does not even show on the FCA short tracker??

Dodgy.

[colonelgrim] 06/2/2020 15:53

Well, did you get mugged again today?

Yeh, of course you did, day traders will never learn!

80% of all trades, LONG or SHORT, lose, fact.

1.97 on the 2/1/2020 1.57 today down 20% wtf is going on

EI....will post link dividend cover

[essentialinvestor] 06/2/2020 14:53

DMF, the dividend in uncovered.

It's not surprising people may be unsure on this as
there have been numerous articles citing dividend cover.

Confusion may arise if you do not allow for the pension
recovery plan.

If the dividend Was covered, net debt would Not be increasing.

You are really on to something.

[dmf] 06/2/2020 13:32

Cannot ascertain if share price has support at this level, or if it has further to drop, guess this all depends an newsflow emanating from BT !

[dmf] 06/2/2020 12:57

Perhaps BT should be 'broken up' the sum of the parts may have more value than the whole ?

[cassini] 06/2/2020 11:13

Careful, CNA and RMG have both announced a dividend cut going forward. Those figuresyou give are historical-based yields.

[montyhedge] 06/2/2020 09:48

Normally I would agree, but the cash flow of this business is very good.

[nw99] 06/2/2020 09:18

Bought here

[dmf] 06/2/2020 09:14

There tends to be a correlation with high dividend yields and dividend cover

In BT's case dividend cover i understand is 1.5 ....ideally 2 is safer

Also 'flags' a warning that dividend may be cut !

[careful] 06/2/2020 09:04

Looking at these political companies BT/CNA/RMG I was wondering why BT'S dividend yield was so low.

BT. 9.6%
CNA. 14.1%
RMG. 14.3%

not bad compared with 1% from the building society.
Are these dividend yields trying to tell us something?

Thank goodness Sharon White has gone. Boris will be better for BT.
