There's a purchase of 43000 at £6.378 at 10.11am. I reckon that is II making a consolidated purchase. My share is 165. The bid was £6.370, offer £6.374 at the time, they paid £6.378, highest price paid this morning before 10.14am. I reckon we're not being well looked after with auto dividend re-investments.

Dividend auto-reinvested by II at 10.14am this morning at £6.378, the morning peak I think. Happy with II, dividends received promptly, except for the timing of their dividend re-investment.

Yep - won't effect ISAs - at some point they are going to means test the ISA limits - but all ok for time beingIf this is what a right wing government does at some point there's going to be an old fashioned Labour government

schofip, Investments held in as ISA are tax free.

[schofip] 07/9/2021 14:10

I realise this is hot off the press but does anyone know if the 1.25% increase in dividend tax to pay for social care will affect shares in ISA's.

Topped up worth a punt on that large director buy, I hope

[cwa1] 06/9/2021 17:06

Impressive purchase. Spare room for him(IF she lets him live) if that goes horribly wrong!

[nerja] 06/9/2021 17:03

May be wrong but she should know what’s happening with the swiss re sale by now. Maybe top up time again

[nerja] 06/9/2021 16:49

Well that’s a large director buy

[davetedjack] 06/9/2021 15:19

Sounds plausible. I'm generally happy with the service and I'm never desperate for my dividends so no real issue for me.

I spoke to them once about it and they fobbed me off with some excuse that they get paid by cheque and only send the tea boy down the bank once a week to pay the cheque in etc.

[williamcooper104] 06/9/2021 12:32

Got mine for value 3 Sept

[davetedjack] 06/9/2021 12:09

Have you checked your dividend history as they put it there and credit it to cash at the end of the day. Mine is in dividend history but can't be used yet and not showing as credited funds.

[my retirement fund] 06/9/2021 12:06

Nothing in my iweb yet but I have known them to take 3 weeks to credit a dividend so not untypical

[zangdook] 06/9/2021 11:29

"TBF I use the cheapest one-iWeb"

iWeb used to be the cheapest, but provided you trade 3 times a quarter and thus avoid the £24 quarterly charge, IG is now cheaper - no sign-up fee, no regular charge (except as above) and £3 a trade. Every broker has its quirks and I'm not trying to promote any of them, but iWeb/HSD/Lloyds is pretty annoying.

[linton5] 06/9/2021 11:20

That’s terrible service to not be in yet I’d be moving to another broker for sure

[cwa1] 06/9/2021 11:19

Yes, my iWeb dividend has finally wheezed in to the account too, last as usual(for me at least)

[wmb194] 06/9/2021 11:14

Mine's been credited to my iWeb a/c, dated 06/09 i.e. today.
Freetrade credited it there on Friday, 03/09. Normally with Freetrade it's on the pay date or the next day.

[spcecks] 06/9/2021 10:08

Just checked still not in at Halifax either

[cwa1] 06/9/2021 09:47

Dividend still not in at iWeb. Anyone had theirs from Halifax/iWeb/etc? TBF I use the cheapest one-iWeb-and I don't expect much better. However I'd be teed off if I paid for a full service broker and they hadn't stumped up yet.

Having said that, ALL the other brokers I use have coughed up the cash, including the cheap and cheerful ones, so not much excuse here for iWeb, etc. They are consistently and persistently the slowest payers

[cassini] 05/9/2021 00:38

7.7% yield at close of market on Friday.

I bought a few more, I'd like to think we're near the bottom of this tumble now.

[bamboo2] 04/9/2021 08:04

o/t, I had so many problems with Halifax SD I started a thread.

The main objective was to share experiences, such as the extent of service unavailability etc. Is it down locally, or for all users? etc

This is because they rarely let you know there is a problem until you try to sign on.

Please record your HSD experiences, good or bad, on the thread, so we have some date stamped evidence.

This allows posters to measure their experience, and could provide info for those thinking of signing up.

[zangdook] 04/9/2021 03:46

Halifax, iWeb and Lloyds are all the same organisation, and they seem to be getting worse and worse, while IG have improved dramatically. HL are somewhere in the middle, usually not too bad.

[woodhawk] 04/9/2021 02:14

I'm with IG Index had both my DLG and PHNX divis paid on Friday.
