Posted at 04/6/2024 14:45 by che7win Basically, best yo liquidate, still 15 PCF staff and directors employed. Little if any left for shareholders |
Posted at 10/1/2024 11:34 by maverick39 Announcement on PCF website re general meeting on 6 Feb. “Serious loss of capital” - more disappointing news but what do we expect ???? |
Posted at 17/12/2023 08:38 by graham1ty I would love someone (ShareSoc, an MBA student, someone) to write the story of “PCF and what went wrong”.It would tell: 1) shareholders what actually happened ( despite the occasional announcement we are really none the wiser as to how £100m of shareholder value just disappeared) 2) act as a cautionary tale for other investors, and show how £100m can dissipate from am apparently strong position 3) alert regulators/fraud squad/police so they can assess whether anyone has a case to answer 4) alert investors to the role of certain individuals and allow reference to how they behaved If someone, with deep knowledge of the demise, but also critical independent eyes, avoiding the pitfalls of libel and slander, could just tell us “what happened here ?” then shareholders would be well served. But it won’t happen. Board, advisers, institutions are keeping their heads down, hoping no one noticed, pretending it did not happen. And shareholders have been shat upon |
Posted at 16/12/2023 10:52 by dandigirl Because PCF cannot be liquidated until after the licence is cancelled.After cancellation, the final wind-up can be concluded and if there is anything left it can be distributed to shareholders, mainly Somers but a few others too. Bad news because the longer it takes the longer the quite awful remaining board members will continue to remunerate themselves disproportionately. Richardson should be ashamed of herself for initiating the demise of PCF. See below from the last update. """Work is continuing to complete the legal and regulatory processes required to surrender the banking licence of PCF Bank and then liquidate PCF and its subsidiaries. The ability of PCF and PCF Bank to reduce their cost base and the speed at which the overall wind down can be completed will have a direct impact on the ability of PCF to make any distribution to shareholders. The Board’s current assessment of the outcome for such a distribution is that, as previously announced, it is unlikely that there will be a meaningful distribution, if any, to shareholders. The Group will issue further guidance on this in due course""". |
Posted at 03/11/2023 14:56 by dandigirl Just in case anyone pops in here from time to time, PCF have let go 3 directors at long last.It should have happened months ago but it means that the others can milk it a bit longer. |
Posted at 18/8/2023 16:45 by cjd190573 Hi all,Hope all is well. Just to report in, that I opened a savings account with PCF last year and I had this email this afternoon:- Seems they are returning funds, rather than allowing to naturally mature:- Also looks like they are trying to get wrapped up by the end of next month. EARLY REPAYMENT OF YOUR SAVINGS ACCOUNT(S) – PLEASE READ CAREFULLY PCF Bank Withdrawal from UK Banking market and Closure of your account(s) In November 2022, PCF Bank announced the start of its process of withdrawing from the UK retail banking market for strategic reasons and that it was no longer offering any new lending or savings products. As part of this process, we are now writing to you as a PCF account holder, in order to inform you of our next steps in respect of our existing accounts. A proposal to take advantage of improved market savings rates Since you opened your account there have been several increases in the Bank of England base rate and this has resulted in a general increase in interest rates available in the market for savings accounts.

We will write to you shortly with the date by which we intend to do this. Important information about what we are proposing to do: Your account(s) will be closed without any financial penalty You will receive your funds plus interest up to the date your account(s) are closed Your funds and interest will be paid to the bank account linked to your savings account(s) (your ‘nominated account’) It is very important that if you would like to change the nominated account that your funds plus interest will be paid to that you let us know as soon as possible - this can be done by logging into your PCF account via our website online banking and sending a secure message or by: - emailing us at savings@pcf.bank - over the phone by phoning us on 020 7227 7577 between 9:00am and 5:00pm Monday to Friday, - or in writing to PCF Bank Limited, Dashwood House, 69 Old Broad Street, London, EC2M 1QS. If you are happy for us to close your account in this way, then you do not need to take any further action and we will write to you again by 30th September 2023 with details of when your account(s) will be closed and funds, plus interest, returned to your nominated account. If you do not want us to close your account in this way, please contact us within 28 days, from the date of this email - this can be done by logging into your PCF account via our website online banking and sending a secure message, by emailing us or contacting us by phone or in writing (using the contact details above in Important Information) to enable us to understand your situation and discuss whether there are alternatives we can offer you to closure. Further Information You can find our Frequently Asked Questions here that may answer any immediate queries you may have. Thank you for saving with PCF Bank. Yours sincerely Daryl Hopkins |
Posted at 10/7/2023 09:33 by cc2014 I canont say I fully understand the standby facility.The purpose of such facilities is usually to provide short term cash flow requirements, but from what I've seen before this was usually done in the form of loans rather than new equity. Something new to me. So, issuing new equity would not be a short term facility at all, at least in my mind. I can only construe that Somers either a) perceive the value of the wind-up to be in excess of 5p a share and it's a way for them to get a bigger slice of the pie (seeks unlikely it's a bit obvious) or b) the value of the wind-up is around 5p and they just want to ensure a smooth transaction c) PCF does not have enough ready cash (seems very unlikely) and Somers are sort of obligated by the FCA as part of the wind-down transaction. As usual with PCF everything is a puzzle. If I consider the second RNS it begins to look a bit more like they've sold the loan book but the purchaser isn't paying for it all up front in cash but on some form of delayed trache mechanism, the value of which is dependent on the outcome and therefore the standby facility is what is says it is and will be called it the outcome of the sale transaction is poor. Or it could be something completely different. Anyways, the sale of the loan book brings PCF to a quicker conclusion than I expected and hopefully a positive resolution for all shareholders. |
Posted at 07/7/2023 14:59 by catabrit So I have called PCF Bank, Asset Match and Tavistock. Asset Match were the most helpful but they don’t have any further information to provide. Tavistock called me back and said they’d forward my query on to the two individuals dealing with PCF Bank.I’m shocked by the scant information provided to shareholders. If others can continue to bombard Tavistock and PCF Bank that would be helpful. |
