No data for 6th Dec either (including interface) - looks like i'm xmas shopping until ADVFN can sort out the problem.

davemake, If you use the interface for the downloads, you can get all the data needed. The Quick links are predefined lists which are created at a specific time in that day. Since there was a problem with our legacy systems on Friday afternoon, this process may not have completed. If you use the interface, it will generate the data on the fly and will pull the data out correctly. Regards Siri

Dave, If you're stuck I can give you an extract from Sharescope as a single CSV file - though this obviously doesn't resolve the ongoing problem of data availability If you want this, leave an email address here

When is the estimated time of complete restoration? I need this data before I can trade. Re your reply: At the moment, if you are looking for particular close prices, you can obtain them from our quote page and download historic daily information. Answer: I use all of the FTSE350 OHLCV prices for data mining purposes - I don't intened to download 350 individual historical prices.

davemake, This is part of our legacy systems and will require a complete rewrite to coincide with our current infrastructure. At the moment, if you are looking for particular close prices, you can obtain them from our quote page and download historic daily information. Regards Siri

back to top....

[davemake] 06/12/2004 09:25

Come on lads - We need Friday's closing data - when will service be restored?

[britishbear] 05/12/2004 11:06

Just talks about chip and pin and that soon retailers will be beating a path to DATA's door. Very few chip and pin plays on the stockmarket. Confident we will get back over a £1 in the near future.

Does anybody have the link to the article or post the details of the Daily Mail article? If it is more than just two lines then it could have an impression. Thanks.

[hectorp] 04/12/2004 14:35

Only the Mail? disappointing !

Tipped in Daily Mail today.

Numis has a buy rating and 32p price target for Albidon, a hold stance on Burtonwood, a buy rating and 116p price target for Datacash, an increased price target and rating upgrade for De La Rue, a sell rating and 40p price target for Game Group

Main guidance is from Broker and various broker up-dates.....there is some delay on the chip and pin take-up but that is a retail sector problem. They are hedging their bets and stalling just to see how things settle/fit. Some major names I understand have had some serious teething problems. Again my impression is that recent developments are quite satisfactory with DATA. The big confidence booster I sense will be a company trading up-date/guidance in early January, along with some pretty exciting revenue news. Have to retain confidence in the board and the new CEO who I believe is well respected in the retail industry etc.

[britishbear] 30/11/2004 09:23

Cyber - You sound like someone who has an inside track on data whether it is via a friend of personnal. Some potentially interesting hints.....what is the input that is least expected for example?

[cyberian] 30/11/2004 00:16

See someone provided some stock at 89p (100,000 shares)and the price held...this could be a sign that the house brokers want an orderly market in the shares. Institutions and Directors have some 75% of stock so can see that a rise over £1 is possible on up-market trading news early in January. RTD are doing very well and would not be surprised to see some migration over to DATA soon. Believe new CEO is growing the company and broadening its software benefits to existing and new areas of client application. Probably get some input when least expected...patience is needed in the meantime.

[stockport] 26/11/2004 09:59

Stock very tight on line only 5000 available, you have to pay a premium for an order of any size greater than that. Stockport

Waiting for the next growth figures. It is interesting to compare DATA with Neteller and EPO - both are in the same general area. Neteller seem to be doing well with online gambling sites who are also DATA's main customers. If Neteller takes off and more and more people open Neteller accounts I assume this would take business away from DATA. DATA of course have all the standard online payment areas sown up and the chip and pin side of things but trends must be watched. Holding DATA, RTD and NLR.

[nunc] 25/11/2004 16:46

Is anyone awake?

[the knowing] 25/11/2004 00:33

RTD chart breakout also Techmark inclusion.

[cyberian] 22/11/2004 10:05

Great results from Cardpoint today, hence firmer tone to DATA...so the general sector has scope to move a lot higher IMO.

[easytimes] 19/11/2004 21:57

After a bit of browsing cannot see any Chip & Pin link with Datacash and Sainsbury's, of course this would be a massive contract if true. Setting up systems of this nature are notorious for having their problems whoever has the contract. I thought Datacash's main business was with online retailers not shopping centre type retail business, maybe I'm wrong.

[zapa] 18/11/2004 16:45

Thank you Mr Baheid.We can all sleep soundly.

[baheid101] 18/11/2004 16:41

Not sure if it was posted earlier but todays Shares magazine had an article on Datacash and an interview with CEO Terry Cave Key points were: Chip & Pin announcements are likely to be in first quarter of 05, and there are likely to be THREE OF THEM. Admitted that they got a little ahead of themselves in terms of their guidance on the timing. Company is likely to 'beat forecasts slightly' and that they will pay a dividend this year Cave also alluded to being on the lookout for acquisitions. Also interviewed was the Investec analyst who said that Datacash should trade on higher multiples based on cardholder not present alone, and that chip and pin announcements will lead to "very sizeable upgrades" Pretty happy with that!
