I'm starting to think there will be a fundraising soon. Price shouldn't be this low.

They will never say, they make a statement that "we are a retail broker", but in the past it has usually been because of the wording of the KIID - notably the description of the investor type. Although that tends not to change.
I have read that Lloyds Bank CEO is planning a new investment vehicle for the bank, but they seem to be trying to get investors to leave. I-web (the cheap option) have put a link on their home page for investors to close their accounts.

Halifax/Lloyds/I-web have now cleared buying Gore Street.
Disappointed with GSF investor Relations for not bothering to reply to me.
As suspected, it was a four week ban. Once they have banned dealing in a company, they won't budge until the next monthly meeting.

Thanks @devonplay. I'll give it another day or two and get in touch.

Did anyone actually receive their return of capital, due Xmas Eve. I think mine paid for my brokers party.

Same to you @sidi - still no change in I-web's stance, so I am thinking of selling my non-ISA holding and rebuying with Jarvis before the next divi.

First time I have heard this for TMIP - it has caused a few of us problems with other companies and other brokers.
I-web, part of Halifax and Lloyds just ban all their customers from investing in anything they don't like, while most brokers give you a written test to cover themselves. Try searching for "Complex Instrument Appropriateness Test".
I passed mine with Jarvis without any problem, but I know others on this board who are much more knowledgeable than me, failed. It's annoying !
The bugbear for me is that they all happy to take your money for shares in the most ridiculous AIM oil and mineral explorers (where I lost a fortune through naivety) but they block you from investing in profitable companies.

He's calling you cheapo whiners guys. Must say I was thinking the same.
By the way, I'm ok @Jack - dividend paid first thing Friday by my new brokers, 15% with-holding tax, and dirt cheap as well. Also missed the big drop as I was switching at the time.
Thanks for asking. Merry Xmas to everyone.

Thanks sidi. Shows it is the full group and not just Iweb. It will be a problem with the kiid. Terrible that they continue to do this without even having the courtesy to inform people holding the shares. My intention was to sell the 3000 I have in my share dealing account and add 5000 in my ISA. Otherwise I'll be paying tax on the dividends.
When I have previously let companies know about this, some are horrified, some don't care. My point is that if, say, 10 percent of small investors can't buy, it has to make a difference to the share price.

Same to you sidi. Can you try doing a dummy buy with Lloyds tomorrow and see if you are banned from investing ?
Been over a week now with I-web. I emailed investor relations at Gore Street, but they didn't reply.

Fantastic opportunity to buy at this price. Unfortunately I have way too many as it is, but certainly not selling. Be glad to get back over 50p which was the highest price I paid ... but also topped up at just over 20p along the way, so has been a real roller-coaster.

Just added another 5000 @39p for my Xmas Treat.

Yes, I know ! This is about the sixth time I have sold shares to top up elsewhere and have been blocked, a few weeks ago it was my biggest holding, VPC/VSL, which was rectified the day before it went ex-dividend. That was about the KIID being a year old, and I got the company to rectify it the next day, but still it took I-web nearly two weeks to unblock it. I am slowly moving my trading account over to Jarvis X-O. Had a similar problem with them last week but they rectified it within minutes. I-web is great for ISA's though as there are no charges at all except £5 dealing. But enough is enough.

Just tried a small top up, and I/web (also presumably Lloyds/Halifax) - NO LONGER ALLOW INVESTMENT IN THIS STOCK.
Getting really sick of I/web, it always seems to be on the run up to a dividend that they do this.

I hope you realise, but It is actually your own money they are giving you back @stalin. A bit like putting £5000 in a building society and they send you £1000 back and say "we can't be bothered investing this".
There will come a point when they delist the shares to avoid paying listing fees, ie, when they have given you half your investment back, and that's when the problems start, especially if, like me, you hold them in an ISA.

Forget I said that - they dealt with it amazingly quickly.

Despite having my IPO shares in my account with Jarvis X-O, they won't let me add to it while the price is down, because they don't have the KIID - despite me sending them a copy.

Thank you for the explanation CC2015. Looks like you will get it sorted, one way or the other.

Just as a matter of interest, what were the bonus shares ?
If 130m shares were issued at £1 each, and £130m was raised, where did they come from and who got them ?

I doubt any I-web staff are on a yacht, I think they are pretty much underpaid and unappreciated.
