sorry if this is not the right route for this question, up untill the end of last month, i would print out my portfolio, which i have been doing for the past year or so. it now will not print. when trying to print my portfolio, the system just hangs, note: i can highlight on any other site to print, with no problem, WHY ??? any suggestions (via my e-mail) would be much appreciated, P.S. anyone else have similar problems ?? best regards.m
I just tried logging on and i got a page saying it didn't exist.
i asked LSE this and they said i could cancel anytime but best check with them as it was earlier on this year i asked. ADVFN has a 30 notice period and you have to write to them. I think for LSE you could just cancel your Direct Debit....
not concerned about sp as i have over a dozen shares and all except hawk was down , the market has just had a battering and everthings dropped together , just hope they all come back up next week , just an unexepected time to buy cheap at present ,
off topic question, im thinking of subscribing to live prices for 12.24 a month, is this a yearly subscription or can i cancel at any time? thanks
Hello. We have soft-launched Version 1 of lse.co.uk's mobile phone-specific site. The address is 'm2.lse.co.uk '. However basic, we hope you like it. Constructive feedback welcome!
With about $8Billion to play with LSE would make a nice fit, bought these expecting the toronto tie up to flush out suiters but didn't expect Singapore. Time will tell but as a risk reward play you havn't got much to lose and who knows where this could end up in a bidding war - £18 Good luck all you lse ers
