have to say Van, I think 'barf' has been holding these a good while longer then most...

Patience child! Rome wasn't built in a day. V.

It's not the issueing, it's the having something to issue that concerns me.

As we know SEO have not issued anything for over 3 years now about any decent orders etc. Initially they used to say 'we don't want to repeat the old management style of empty positive statements' and we could all understand that but after 3 years the question is WHY haven't they got anything to shout about?

......and we're not far off what happened to MDX as it is! over 90% loss in value in 3 years - only 10% left.

So, if SEO don't want to make those mistakes.......what did happen to the substantive product launch in 2009 Q4? if SEO don't do hot air where is that launch?

[vaneric] 08/7/2010 10:04

Can I suggest barf2 that you go over to the MDX threads abd see what happens when a company board issues regular glowing updates and RNSs. V

Yet another day of silence from the company.Whatever happened to those successful trials? probably the same as the substantive product launch that Standen told us about last August that never happened.

It can't be them holding back news until it is AIM listed because that is not their choice.If they had signed any decent orders or made significant progress with the eternal patent dispute they would have to tell the markets.

They haven't so they haven't.

Same old,same old.

Van is right.If you have a trading account [or are happy to set one up] as opposed to your ISA then your broker can tansfer the stock out of your ISA into the trading account.

You will lose the ISA benefits blah,blah,blah and will have to pay some dealing costs etc [effectively selling and rebuying but they do generally offer a discount]but it can be done.This is what will happen if you don't give them adequate instruction.

If you haven't got an alternative trading account then your ISA stock will just be sold on the day.

[vaneric] 07/7/2010 11:20

Sirmark, I got the impression from some of the reports that nobody actually needed to sell their ISA shares, that the brokers could just move them out of ISA for you on a free handling basis.

Never had an ISA myself though, just an outsider looking in. V.

10 million+ dumped and they only got just over .10 for most of it!

Someone doesn't believe maestro's latest ID or the board of directors.

I think it is the fact that they did the usual of suggesting good news coming soon just to get through he AGM [same as every year]and then failed to follow it up with anything whatsoever.

Those who bought into the open offer are already 20% down on their investment and still diddly squat from the board.

Most of us thought that when they gave away a massive part of our investment to generate more cash, it would be the low point and the share price would start to rise once they got it away.Not many of us expected them to, once again, give up any momentum they had and go silent again.

Welcome to the wonderful world of the new SEO/BIOM/AIM where all those promises of regular website updates turned out to be the same as all the promises of improved communication that we've always had. An absolute crock!

[sirmark] 07/7/2010 10:36

Last of the forced sellers coming through IMO,

Has anyone here still got stock in an ISA and have they notified you that it will have to be sold??? and what is the procedure if you don't sell of your own back ??

Hargreaves Lansdown are the best broker I have come across but they do charge fees. I use Selftrade mostly because they were simpler to use but HL have improved their ease of use. HL have won a lot of awards in the past and I have seen posters recommend them on advfn many times before.

I don't do many trades now Barnie but I used to when I was with the Halifax, their system was always down when I wanted to trade so a good few bargains were missed. V.

[barniebear] 06/7/2010 16:32

I have never had any trouble with Halifax

[vaneric] 06/7/2010 13:43

Did the 'run from Barclays' and the 'run from Halifax' bit some time ago, now thinking of 'run from Selftrade' since they added a 'take it or leave' annual fee. V.

[barf2] 06/7/2010 11:53

TDW isn't bad as there is a credit facility that lets you T-trade if you want to.They are generally OK but when they mess up it is usually in a big way.

Some server problems with them now and again but of all the brokers I've used the have been the best.{it might be TDW you are trying to get away from!]

Run as fast and as far as you can away from Barclays.

[vaneric] 06/7/2010 11:31

Off topic.

I'm thinking of dumping my online broker, any recommendations for a better one? V

[barf2] 06/7/2010 11:28

I see PLUS are only paying .112 now.

Shall we have a sweepstake on how long the silence goes on for this time?
Whatever happened to that trial that was successfully completed? All gone very quiet, usual SEO.

I'll start.I think the silence will continue until the very last day they can get away with it before they are legally obliged to update the markets just like they have done for the last 3 years.

So end of August for me.Goodness knows what the share price will be then.

Have posted a broker note on PLNT bb, 5.5p to buy, 19p target.

[morgannn] 05/7/2010 18:24

daw they had no option,it was not a company decision,they no longer qualified for the listing.
