Between 2014-2025 - LSE Lloy board has raised over £10k for charity

Mr Meerkats 2026 YE competition is now active :-)

Started this fantasy portfolio in 2016 to challenge various poster's perception that lloy is 'the worst share ever', 'better else where' or a 'dire share',

8th Oct 2016 I invited wl/newchurch to choose an alternative ftse 100 company, so I could run a comparison, since 2016 others have been added

~~~ On 8th Oct 2016 - - 1000 quid bought 206 BP. shares & 1905 lloy shares

Today's value, BP. 206@438 =£902 v lloy 1905@99p =£1886

~~~ In April 2017 invest4life suggested I add glencore - - on 22-4-17 - 1000 quid bought 335 glen shares & 1553 lloy shares

Today's value, glen 335@409 =£1370 v lloy 1553@99p =£1537

~~~ In July 2017 nucky suggested I add rbs/natwest - - on 12-7-17 1000 quid bought 384 NWG & 1512 Lloy

Today's value, NWG 384@658 =£2527 v Lloy 1512@99p =£1497

~~~ In July 2017 utrickytrees asked that I add barc - - on 30-7-17 1000 quid bought 479 barc & 1504 lloy

Today's value barc 479@480 =£2299 v lloy 1504@99p =£1489

~~~ In Sept 2018 motley fool recommended diageo over lloyds - - on 9-9-18 1000 quid bought 37.3 DGE & 1704 lloy

Today's value, DGE 37.3@1608 =£600 v lloy 1704@99p =£1687

~~~ In April 2020 theosus asked that I add circassia - - on 14-4-20 £1000 bought 3891 cir/niox & 3058 lloy

Today's value, niox 3891@68 =£2646 v lloy 3058@99p =£3027

~~~ In April 2020 theboard asked that I add rollsroyce - - on 25-4-20 £1000 bought 322 RR. (post 10for3ri 1073) & 3367 lloy

Today's value, RR. 1065@1197 =£12748 v lloy 3367@99p =£3333

~~~ This week's observation - Fairly stable new year week for Banks, Russia/Ukraine peace deal???, Israel/Hamas peace deal???, cost of living continues to bite, strikes strikes strikes, UK set to face Winter of discontent? Labour still on course to crash our economy, Inflation rise, UK Growth down, cusp of recession? Record small boat landings continue, Starmer '1in1out1inagain' rinse&repeat !!!, #IslandofStrangers, Labour Party leadership/PM challenge? #CaretakerPM, The Party that wanted to disband HofL issues 25 peerages! this Gov. is an absolute joke! Grooming gangs inquiry fail! Covid enquiry, Benefits reform! Two child benefit cap scrapped, Two-Tier Justice under Starmer's Labour? Compulsory Digital ID's? Have we ever seen such a SHAMBLES of a Gov. before? Beyond embarrassing! Reform now largest by Party membership, Reform and Conservatives to exit ECHR and deport all Illegal Immigrants, Farage still living rent-free in Starmer's head lol

A very basic comparison that does not include divi yield and buybacks, IMO those still suggesting lloy is 'the worst share ever' or a 'dire share' should maybe consider premium bonds?

Do you have a SP guess?

From the 'JUST GIVING' website -

If you didn’t mean to leave a tip on top of your donation on JustGiving and would like to request a refund, you can do so quickly and easily through your donation receipt by following the steps below:

After donating, you’ll receive a confirmation email from JustGiving. Open this email to access your donation receipt.

At the bottom of your receipt, you’ll see a link that says:

“To change the tip you left to JustGiving, click here.”

Click this link to begin the refund process.

3. You’ll be taken to a page showing your donation summary. Tap the “Request a tip refund” button.

4. Once submitted, your tip will be refunded to your original payment method within 5-10 working days.

Caution using the 'JUST GIVING' site -

On JustGiving, the "tip" is

an optional extra donation to help cover the platform's running costs, not a mandatory fee, but it's often pre-selected (e.g., 17%) and requires donors to actively select "Enter custom amount" and type in "£0" to remove it, a design that has drawn criticism for being potentially misleading. While charities get 100% of the donation itself (minus payment processing fees), this tip ensures JustGiving remains free for them and keeps the site running.

How to adjust or remove the tip:

Find the Tip Section: On the donation page, locate the "Tip JustGiving" or similar section.

Click "Enter custom amount": This option allows you to change the pre-filled percentage or amount.

Enter '0' (Zero): Type in "£0.00" to opt out of the tip entirely.

Key Points:

Optional vs. Mandatory: The tip is voluntary, but its placement can make it seem required.

Charity Receives Full Donation: The charity receives 100% of the donation amount you give, plus any Gift Aid.

Platform Costs: Tips help JustGiving cover its own costs, like payment processing (1.9% + 30p) and platform maintenance.

Giving Checkout: For a completely fee-free direct donation, charities can use Giving Checkout, which absorbs processing fees.
