yes agreed, although it could i guess be part of some share scheme in lieu of a bonus ?? either way, it's a sizable enough lump.

ok, sure enough it triggered bang on 1.25p just took H&L website and my account about 5 minutes and a couple of refreshes to catch up.

so, fingers crossed from here on, new average 3.5p

so i've just had 2 emails form H&L saying thank you for placing your deal with us, I had a limit buy set to trigger at 1.25p ... looksl ike it might have triggered, but my share holding hasn't changed, i've had 2 emails form H&L second one with a tade reference number, but can't see the exact details of the trade

baffled especially as i've not seen the ask go near 1.25

I have always considered brokers ratings to be, quite frankly B0l1OXx

yeah, i've been offered 1.48 a couple of times, but I have a lower amount to use to top up, so every little bit helps for me, that said i've been caught a couple of times elsewhere being stubborn and not taking something close to what I was looking for

What I hate about H&L is when you set a limit buy it's for a set number of shares, at a set price and if it executes lower, then they don't buy extra shares up to the value of the original order, they stick to the original volume of shares, whereas with a manual buy, it works to the amount you want to spend

what price did you get if you don't mind me asking, i've found the actual offered price has been fluctuating a fair bit yesterday, and a 25% spread doesn't help matters!

you are in exactly the position i'm in, albeit the figures slightly smaller for the investment, and my final avg would be about 3.5
I'm watching the spread carefully, as it makes limit buys impossible to rely on, i'm thinking there is a little tree shake/blip I may be able to top up at 1.25, that would do me, but it would still leave me with a lot more in here than I want.

i'm currently somewhere around 8.9p avg

....and found it's upper limit again, about £8 is it's max, just a question now of how far it falls, i've missed way too many opportunities while i have money tied up in this POS

is what i feared would happen after the dust settled from the consolidation, and just seems to hit harder

breach 425 this time, or bounce off it again !

for those with Level 2 access, i'm assuming 425 is showing as a level of resistance, what's it look like after that ?

Just got my letter too, phoned Hargreves Lansdown to place my votes, they said they can't do this one through the usual online corporate action voting, so has to be via secure message or over the phone.

I too was very happy with receiving the letter, and the explanation of the importance of voting and what we were voting for.

Not so happy that HL didn't at least send me a secure message saying "EGM due, to vote call or reply here, no corporate action option available", and I told them that whilst on the phone.... "the suggestion will be passed up the chain" (and will fall on deaf ears no doubt)

Really, so why did they refuse the shares before, and demand full cash payment ?

because they knew the consolidation was coming? .... i still don't trust them, they leave a sour taste in the mouth

correct, currently circa 32% up... shame crica 18% of that or more is simply recovery from consolidation losses

is again there, to make the $50,000 monthly payment via shares if agreed by both parties, why even bother putting that in there when Lind refused last time.

I'd rather see a hit now to kick Lind to the kerb and be done with them, instead of being tied with them for the next 10 months, plenty of time for them to try and stab us in the back again.

I wish i was that close

"Why would you invest now, CrystalBallBroke? When you know that the tax issue remains unresolved, that we have to repay a 30million bond in a few months, and regardless of any of that, we will still have to raise further funds just to keep the lights on (which will probably mean further dilution)."

Because I am carrying a considerably higher average, that I am not likely to realise, even on good news, however, as pointed out there could be a small spike and buying frenzy which could give enough of a raise in price to allow me an exit point if i've averaged down, at this stage, this is nothing more than a gamble for me, one in which i may get to recover most of my investment, or lose all of it, but given i've been so far under water for so long, it's pretty much at that point now anyway, and any forther dilution as you correctly said is likely to happen, is going to dilute any good news spikes as well...... If i'd averaged down before the previous spike to 3p from what was it, sub 1p or thereabouts, then I would probably not still be holding now.

i've been just sat waiting to see how low it will go, before committing any more to this, but i do need to average down, but it's so hard to put more money in when i have not got that much confidence in it at all.

now they want to buy back shares at 20p each.

hoping people will have had enough and take the huge hit on their original price .... lol

maybe if they had allowed over purchase on the open offer, so people may have gotten closer to 50% loss now, they might have more takers

beggars belief, you couldnt make this up

yup, without a doubt

and now 16% down, yeah.... consolidation was such a good thing for us blah blah blah
