Kcom Share Discussion Threads

Wow that was over a year and a half ago. My shares were in a trading account so monies were just credited to my account. I assume you have a paper certificate. Best route would be to contact the registrar of the company. Maybe start here hxxps://unclaimedassets.co.uk/unclaimed-shares-and-dividends/

When it floats

[leadersoffice] 15/8/2019 07:07

Think I might wait and invest my proceeds in Aramco

[suzypie17] 13/8/2019 13:16

I got my cheque today too.

[irenekent] 13/8/2019 10:13

Cheque today. Bye bye KCOM

[cityconindex] 03/8/2019 15:19

Maybe Kcom could launch a bid for Toop at 3p a share?

[leadersoffice] 02/8/2019 07:21

Buy buy KCOM

Having held these for years, I sold @98 before the second bid - they were largely a 'sleep at night dividend payer' for me.

Well done to those that held.

Good luck with Toople. I'll watch from the sidelines. I do think more consolidation in the telecommunications sector is likely

[realcooltrader] 31/7/2019 07:38

Well, good luck with whatever you decide. I worked for KCOM for fourteen years and did rather well with their staff share buy scheme. I sold in the open market at £1.20, very happy with that as my money is already working for me elsewhere, instead of having to wait until September. And it’s Toople ;-)

Final results no divi declared due to takeover. Probably a right time for us to exit out on a high. Now looking for a place or stock to put some of my Kcom proceeds. I'm not over excited by topple... maybe time will tell.

Bob I definitely agree that Toople (Toop) is the one to buy next. They aim to get 5% of the UK SME market by 2023, are still only just £3m market cap, so the upside is huge, a potential 200 bagger. The CEO is ex Talk Talk where he grew the business customer base at record levels and now plans to replicate that with Toop.

Think you're being optimistic about dividend but that's neither here nor there as if one is declared the settlement payment will be reduced by the same amount,

[bobdown2] 13/7/2019 15:25

I'm in toop...There was a two for one placing just under a year ago..discounted to satisfy the market. There has been a small one of late to pay of a director on the cheap and eliminate all debt. This has led to a stagnant share price instead of a steadily rising share price to follow months of record business being signed and convertered into revenue streams that are following behind. Smack on last year's funding price in spite of at least 100% growth and rising monthly...as always dyor via the rns statements. Well done with this winner..

[leadersoffice] 13/7/2019 14:22

Thank you realcooltrader. I'll bear that in mind.

No your right...KCOM is drawing to a close and its no good being sentimental. I have done really well from it. The divi's were really good to receive.
I hope we get the final divi... can't see this being concluded till September at the earliest.

[realcooltrader] 13/7/2019 12:45

Yep, lo, me, in a fairly large way. Read the posts by 2mex on the TOOP thread, he/she has really researched Toople. TOOP is just at the start of its journey and is growing rapidly month on month. It reminds me of Eclipse Internet who KCOM bought some years ago. Toople has an experienced Management Team including the CEO Andy Hollingworth, ex Talk Talk Director and a 25 year veteran in the Telecoms Industry.

General view is that it will get taken out at some stage, possibly by someone like Daisy. Very under the radar at the moment and superb value, imho.

Apologies for O/T, but there's not much more to say about KCOM!

[leadersoffice] 13/7/2019 12:27

Question is... Where will Bidco turn there attention to next? what's peoples view of TOOP? Watching from the sidelines re TOOP. Any of you in there?

[leadersoffice] 12/7/2019 17:45

Ah right doing that way... ok thanks for that

[realcooltrader] 12/7/2019 16:57

I don't believe so lo. From the winning RNS:

"Under the revised increased offer, fractions of pence will be paid to KCOM Scheme Shareholders and cash entitlements will be rounded up to the nearest penny."

Suppose I have 4981 shares (I don't!). Times that by £1.203 equals £5,992.143. Rounded up to the nearest penny equals £5992.15.

[leadersoffice] 12/7/2019 16:39

£1.20? stone the crows... that's excellent. 5p more than I thought as well. Clearly those in the know hedged there bets well.


P.S actually it will be rounded up to £1.21 if i understand correctly

[nigthepig] 12/7/2019 16:04

Yes I was just watching the news come in. That is a fair bit higher than I was expecting. Excellent news for all holders.

[leadersoffice] 12/7/2019 15:34
