International Distributions Services Share Price (IDS)

has been a complete ****-show throughout. i simply want the £3.60 plus the 0.08p now.

The fact that the financial institutions have the ability to artificially fix the price here at around 356p since November reinforces what's been said here over the years.

What chance does the private investor have???

My shares held with ii have been changed to IDSA and unable to trade for some time now. It may be I could have traded if I rang up but I could not do online. I already had sold most of my shares and just left with £2-3k worth to see if things went well.

On the when thing, there is an article in the Guardian today saying that the Gov review which was scheduled to be complete in September is still ongoing! The article goes on to point out the various deals that Kretinsky and his oppo Tkac have been involved in connected to the Rus. So perhaps a little dodgy and not best for security?

There should be no big surprise here, a lot of ex iron curtain 'businessmen' in the 90's were little more than thugs who managed to gain control of various countries resources, a bit like privatisation with a gun or concreted barrel to chuck you in a reservoir, behind it. Same rip off of the people. Still I don't see it stopping things, our politicians aren't that much different, at least those who end up in the big jobs. It's the world we live in, now we are just helping with the laundering!!

I would be quite irritated that they acted without instructions.

Hi - I only have a small shareholding in this but I noticed that my broker (iWeb) has taken them out of my account. I presume that’s to stop me from selling as this deal goes through. Can anyone tell me when the deal is complete and when I can look forward to my broker dropping some funds to replace the shares from my account. Thanks.
