I will very happy when this is all over and we get our shares on HL because I won't have to listen to RG, CBB and MB griping... Just kidding. I am waiting too. Can't be long now. I have been able to trade mine on ii for a week. I have a paltry amount in there but happy to wait for something just below CGT before selling. Lately I feel like I'm playing Monopoly and keep landing on Chance. This week one of my endowments which paid out in 2020 from 22 years ago wrote to tell me they'd underpaid me and here's a cheque for £big plus interest and apologies. Pass Go and collect ££££. Makes a nice change.
RG same here, sent a snotty a couple of days ago, still no reply, it makes you proud to be British, we have turned into a 3 rd rate nation, lack of care or urgency , or even doing the job right, hopefully our time will come
Parts of the last message I received from HL on 11th August:
“I can confirm Hargreaves Lansdown recieved the stock dividend from Consolidated Growth Holdings Ltd in share certificates. We have applied the shares to your account as you are aware on 2 August 2022.
In order for you to be able to trade these shares we need to first dematerialise these shares into CREST the UK settlement system. I can confirm we have requested this with CREST and we are currently waiting for the shares to settle. Once the shares have settled we shall update your account to reflect a tradable line of shares in Contango Holdings plc.”
So that’s 12 working days since they were added to our shares & funds accounts, 12 days of being unable to trade these shares, just how long and what do these guys need to do, to get this sorted out?
An absolute shambles HL.
forget this week, today would be good for me lol... i have others that took a kicking this morning and i want to avg down on as they will recover back to where they were when the dust settles in a day or so, and i could do with the reduction in average to give faster out options
I am looking positive CBB, other people have got their shares and dealt them, HL just a bit slow, sadly de listed companies can not remain in an ISA. Luckily my holding is way short of CGT. Hopefully this week we will get them
That is of course if I ever get the damn things in the first place, still have doubts and concerns we'll get fu cked over somehow
@granth81 the problem with that is the potential for hitting capital gains tax, my holding was in my isa.... it's not anymore, so if i overshoot the limit, which is more than possible, i'll end up a world of pain in regards to declaring income etc, which i've never had to do before, and do not see why i should give the government anything, they weren't going to swallow any of the loss, it was an isa investment and as such should be protected, but because H&L kicked it out of my isa (unlike the bankrupt Bellzone mining that are still in there) it's not protected, so, no matter how well CGO does, I'll be selling before i smack into that CGT thereshold
Well done RG, hopefully sort this coming week, good luck
In a way, I’ve already done my B&I, I bought 86000 CGO (slightly more than my CGH allocation) last week through my ISA, so just need to be able to trade the ones in my shares & funds account to complete it. Be nice if the sp increases before I do, might be a little bonus for the long, long wait, since the 2016’s delisting.
Just need HL to pull their finger out.
Good luck everyone.
Granth81, I already hold CGO shares , had them a little while , hope you are right , if and when HL get their act together I will b&B ISA , no intention of selling up, good luck with your investment
Think twice before you sell the second you get them, Cgo will probably go on a very good run as we approach Q4 and become profitable. It’s great to see you all getting some value back but your shares could double or triple in price in the next 3-4 months.
Good luck all
