Hi Monty
I hold this company in my ISA but still have the withholding tax deducted .
Hope this helps.

[montyhedge] 25/4/2018 06:56

So is this company, no tax advantage in a ISA for dividends?

[m1k3y1] 24/4/2018 21:56

I am surprised that IAG have not provided advice to their UK investors on how they can recover this tax, or even provided the services of a company who can deal with this for shareholders.

[elmo1971] 24/4/2018 21:29

Agree. This tax year we can earn £2000 tax free and 7.5% tax thereafter yet on £2000 IAG divi we will suffer £380.

Disappointing that the tax advisors Iag have recommended on their website aren’t in a position to help.

Have asked several companies such as Hargreaves if they can reclaim this tax but not yet met anyone who can.

I find it discriminatory to be honest, especially as we are still eu citizens.
It is a substantial sum of money and will undoubtedly run into millions of pounds from UK Investors.

Has anyone tried to reclaim the 19% Spanish Withholding tax on their dividends.
IAG have suggested a company called Spanish Tax Forms on their website but they have indicated that they "do not currently have a reliable process for reclaiming Spanish withholding tax on dividend payments. This is because the UK registrars are currently unable to generate the specific documentation required by the Spanish tax authorities to claim the refund."

Was going to try it myself but on reading the notes on IAG website I need a Spanish Tax Representative to submit the Form 210 and supporting documentation.

Anyone been successful in reclaiming the tax?

Thanks

Just tracking the FTSE down I think , short of any positive news anywhere.

[montyhedge] 16/4/2018 14:10

Sellers to buyers on Level 2 seems to be 2 to 1, so I think may go lower, but things can change.

[m1k3y1] 13/4/2018 21:07

Aye no worries.Last para could well be right.

[m1k3y1] 13/4/2018 15:54

Chief

I wasn't suggesting that IAG buy EZJ.
By saying 'target', I meant as a company that might be encouraged to 'join' the IAG group.

Walsh is cleverly creating a 'One World' Star Alliance' type conglomerate of individual airline brands that benefit from being part of the same 'umbrella' organisation.

Qatar has bought into the idea without IAG having to buy Qatar and there is no reason why others should not do the same.

I am not convinced yet, that Walsh will buy Norwegian, unless it is for a good price.
It is after all a failing business model and a company that is losing money.
I haven't yet looked into the NAV of Norwegian and would be interested to know what it is if anyone else has this info.

I suspect that the slots, aircraft orders and existing fleet may be of more interest to Walsh than the actual business itself.
After all, IF he could buy it , it might provide an instant fleet expansion for level.

[chiefbrody] 13/4/2018 15:31

No chance IAG going for EZJ (imo). EZJ half the value of IAG (EZJ highly rated by the markets, IAG not). Too much for shareholders to swallow.As a holder of both i wouldn't want it either lol. Norwegian, hmm, maybe. Not so sure. Over a billion for a company not yet making a profit.IAG should have tied in with one of the Asian airlines. Massive growth over there.

[m1k3y1] 13/4/2018 14:56

I see that some of the newspapers are already calling for a competition enquiry into IAG potentially buying Norwegian.

I find this interesting because, although IAG as a group might have a positive commercial position, what I believe people are overlooking, is the fact that IAG is not an airline and does not hold an AOC.

It is just a holding company and as such, as long as it maintains separate brands, may well not fall into competition concerns.
