FWIW, Selftrade ponied up the dough yesterday.

I am with iii tel5. I use their regular investment to buy ITs for £1.50 a trade. It comes out of the £20 per quarter account charge, so every three months I make 13 IT buys (4 for 2 months and 5 in the third month) and in effect pay no dealing charge.

I have noticed that sippdeal (AJBell) cannot compete on order size with TD, which is very frustrating. I try an order with sippdeal and they cannot quote a price and try the same order with TD and they have no problem.

I have my ISAs with TD and my ordinary share dealing accounts with Barclays. Barclays have been slow at paying dividends before and they are also slower at paying your money when you want to withdraw cash - odd for a bank to be slower that a third party. TD are much better at both aspects.
The only problem I had with TD was when I was trading in small caps and AIM stocks more frequently. Barclays could often beat them on price by a distance, both buying and selling. Somebody claimed that some stockbrokers use only certain market makers to do deals and if they aren't the ones with the best prices on that particular stock then tough on the customer. I still like to get quotes from both, but it is fair to say that things seem to have improved recently.

LG. Got in TD aeons ago but the tardy one is idealing.com.

id be switching account to interactive investor , no problem with dividend payments and cheap platform just £10 to trade and £20 quarter charge with 2 free trades so virtually no cost .

Of all the different brokers I have used over the years, TD Direct are definitely the best. They pay dividends quickly and seem able to deal in larger size orders with fewer problems than some brokers.

[lord gnome] 29/12/2016 09:08

Me neither. I have already complained to Barclays about it, but I don't expect anything to be done until the new year. Who are you with?

[rcturner2] 22/12/2016 08:43

td direct paid mine on the 19th Dec.

If it makes you feel any better GP, iDealing have not coughed up the divi yet either. Have to admit that, on the whole, they are reasonably timely-but the PEY divi nearly always takes that bit longer so not too concerned. Pleased to hear that I'm not the only person still waiting though :-)

NAV up a bit - still no payment from Selftrade; no change there!

[deltrotter] 20/12/2016 08:50

iii paid up yesterday. lovely jubbly divi from this one.

[cwa1] 20/12/2016 08:28

Idealing not stumped up yet-but this is always their slowest one from previous experience. Usually arrives a few days to a week "late".

[bluemango] 19/12/2016 15:22

Paid now. Nice little earner.

[tiltonboy] 18/12/2016 21:58

Probably take an extra week converting Euros into GBP.

[lord gnome] 18/12/2016 21:25

Not yet, but Barclays is always slow where money is concerned. Typical bank.

[bluemango] 17/12/2016 11:10

Not received my dividend, payment date supposed to be yesterday 16th. Anyone had theirs?

[skyship] 24/11/2016 15:45

We've seen a 5.6% fall in the Euro so far this month! £Sterling was massively oversold versus the sick dog of Europe...

[bluemango] 24/11/2016 10:20

Ex div today.

[lord gnome] 22/11/2016 12:24

Good to see some real strength in this as it heads towards ex-div. It's just a pity (perhaps) that the stronger £ is taking off some of the recent gains.

[bluemango] 18/11/2016 13:36

Look at that aesthetically pleasing chart :o)

Three year high.

[bluemango] 15/11/2016 09:30

As mentioned in previous weeks, currency moves since last dividend payment in June mean this dividend converts more favourably, around 0.234 GBP per share at today's rates compared to 0.2088 GBP back in June. 12% higher this time.

[tel5] 04/11/2016 11:41

another investment house increases stake to over 5 % , looking good for further progress

[tel5] 28/10/2016 17:18

if £ goes to parity with euro this should show in increased share price when converted .should be nice divi to look forward to shortly.
