Thanks TM. I’ll give them a try.

AJ Bell let's you buy on-line but you need to phone to sell.

Does anyone know of a broker that allows online buy orders on UAV?

Both mine have stopped allowing buys on VCT’s (Barclays and iWeb).

Thanks.

I think I would be considerably better off if I'd made the same choice with my SIPP. If my a miracle SCE gets it share price up to say 5p circumstances would be much different in all my accounts.. Good Luck!

[toffeeman] 03/1/2025 09:14

I am still in SCE even averaged down at the last raise - I should probably take those profits but I am tempted to leave alone. I am lucky that my main SIPP is managed by a WM so I can afford some of the dreadful decisions I have made on my own account!

[bagpuss67] 02/1/2025 13:52

I can only put 10k in that unfortunately...anyway let's hope SCE survives and rebounds! Are you still in?

[toffeeman] 02/1/2025 13:39

SIPP gives you up to 45% income tax relief!

[bagpuss67] 02/1/2025 12:48

AIM market is so grim.. Will probbaly end up getting more though as only tax break left me and the Mrs..

[toffeeman] 02/1/2025 12:18

Looks like they are kichen sinking (sic) the NAV!

[toffeeman] 06/12/2024 15:32

SCE will not be doing the NAV any favours!

[bagpuss67] 27/3/2024 07:09

Well.. That's true. The tax relief and tax free dividends do provide a decent buffer. But I still hope/ expect that we get a bounce back in UK small caps this year.

[toffeeman] 25/3/2024 20:58

So you paid £42 and they are worth £50, sound!

[bagpuss67] 25/3/2024 20:18

Wife and I put £60k in here recently only to see it now worth £50k (before tax relief of £18k)...could do with that small cap rebound arriving soon!

[bagpuss67] 17/2/2024 11:09

Looks like the top holding here isn't even listed let alone on AIM.

[topvest] 14/2/2024 19:23

I am semi-retired so can't put much into a SIPP. After ISA and SIPP exhaustion, VCTs are OK at the margin to reduce higher rate tax on pensions and investment income etc.

[toffeeman] 14/2/2024 18:32

My error - you are correct

[bagpuss67] 14/2/2024 12:50

The 3m relates to poeple who wanted the divi reinventment scheme?

[bagpuss67] 14/2/2024 12:49

The Directors of the Company are pleased to announce that on the basis of subscription forms received as at 15.00 Thursday 8 February 2024 and assuming that they are all accepted, the initial £15 million Offer is now fully subscribed.

[toffeeman] 14/2/2024 12:43

Raised less than 3.5m out of target 15m.

[bagpuss67] 13/2/2024 18:10

Haha. Yes. What a sorry state of affairs on those stocks and I'm being a sucker for AIM punishment getting a load of these. Just praying for a small cap revival in 24 at some point.

[toffeeman] 13/2/2024 11:13

Hi Bagpuss

Must stop meeting like this UAV SCE AGL!

Seriously though I am not a big earner but have bought UAV in the past to get the 30% tax rebate as I was at the LTA limit in my SIPP. Now however any spare dosh will go into my SIPP for a 40% rebate.

[bagpuss67] 13/2/2024 07:33

Surprised no fully subscribed update?

[bagpuss67] 11/2/2024 15:59

And wife over lifetime allowance

[bagpuss67] 11/2/2024 15:58

The tapered annual allowance further limits the amount of tax relief high earners can claim on their pension savings by reducing their annual allowance to as low as £10,000. This reduced allowance could change from tax year to tax year depending on your income.
