So, all in all, you came out of it pretty well, IR35, although more due to EROS than to Barclays. Still, good for you for persevering.

Barclays are fine now. I topsliced a few this week without a problem. I finally settled on £550 plus a luxury hamper for all of the trouble. I thought it would be hard to push it any further as the share were more than 20% above the price I tried to sell at in November. They are now about 75% up on the November price. The Barclays platform isnt the most user friendly though - not as good as the UK dealing platform.

Thank you , rivaldo. I had suspected it would be something like that.

[rivaldo] 28/7/2015 14:28

Aimingupward, I don't "know", but I'm working on the basis that distributors get around 45%-50% of the gross (that's after deducting tax and other parties' cuts). Remember too that EROS have a very low-risk model as they presell even before release around 75% of the cost of any movie via digital, TV sales etc from memory. This year should be rather profitable....

Rivaldo, what proportion of box office takings actually accrue to EROS, do you know?

[rivaldo] 28/7/2015 12:46

Barclays are also fine now, after the initial muck-ups. No fees or anything if you're transferring in stocks AFAIK. Bajrangi is now up to a massive 453 crore worldwide :o)) It's the third biggest global earner EVER....

I can deal O.K. with TD Direct.

[smurfy2001] 28/7/2015 11:27

thanks yorkie52. I did ask some time ago (more than a year) and got the same answer - just wondered if they had changed their mind.

[yorkie52] 28/7/2015 09:27

alter ego, I am afraid they won't/can't, i asked them last night but check again if you wish.

[alter ego] 28/7/2015 08:54

thanks yorkie52. I have Vantage account with HL but my EROS shares are all in certificate form. I wonder if HL will allow me to transfer them into my Vantage shares account. Did you ask re yours?

[bishan bedi] 28/7/2015 07:31

Thanks chaps. 200 quid a bit steep for these purposes, I only have about 4k worth! I have ISAs with HL, I'll try them as mentioned above. Thanks for replying.

[yorkie52] 28/7/2015 07:03

The one off joining fee is £200 which is a bit steep. Has anyone got other broker ideas that don't charge a fee?

[smurfy2001] 28/7/2015 06:59

Bishan, I've already posted a link above. I'm also with iii and iWeb said they could transfer from iii (just not posted the form yet). Give them a ring and post your feedback as no doubt you're not the only one. Only downside with iWeb is there's a one off joining fee but not sure how much it is now.

[bishan bedi] 28/7/2015 06:38

I hope you don't mind my asking something which has no doubt been covered here gents, but i still hold a few of these from the uk listing days. They are with iii and I can't sell them, so was hoping someone could recommend a cheap broker to whom i can transfer simply for this transaction? Any help greatly appreciated

[yorkie52] 28/7/2015 06:32

Thanks smurfy I'll have a look at them. Alter ego, no my shares were in vantage account. The remaining 1/3 rd though are in certificate form but Hargreaves were not able to sell them. So I also need a broker that will accept them if I decide to sell at some point

[alter ego] 28/7/2015 06:03

Yorkie52, may I ask if the shares you sold with HL were in certificated form?

[smurfy2001] 27/7/2015 23:21

IWeb Share Dealing www.iweb-sharedealing.co.uk/ With IWeb Share Dealing you can buy and sell shares from UK and international stock markets for just £5.00 commission per trade.

[yorkie52] 27/7/2015 22:46

I've just sold 2/3rds of my holding with Hargreaves Landsdown but was told that they can only sell and not buy. I decided to take profits but with the intention of possibly buying back later at a lower price. Can someone advise me which uk stockbrokers I could buy with please?

[monkeymagic3] 27/7/2015 15:02

I'm so glad I was patient with this. What a re-rating!

[old portmuthian] 27/7/2015 14:57

Someone took 40.66 first thing.

[smurfy2001] 27/7/2015 14:35

$37 hit :) Any takers for $38?

[rivaldo] 26/7/2015 22:13

Yep, Bajrangi now up to an incredible 350 crore worldwide - it's already the "eighth highest worldwide grosser" of all time.... Http://www.koimoi.com/box-office/bajrangi-bhaijaan-crosses-350-mark-worldwide-box-office-collections/
