Thanks for your reply, you certainly didn't offend me, or I doubt anyone. I was just trying to make the point that most vod share holders are not only making a cap loss, but are getting a much lower than the 10% divi return than your example suggested. If you have 70k split evenly at 170 & 153 you are getting about 7 to 8%, but me, & many who paid more,£2 plus, are on about 6%. Of course any who invest now, stand to get about 10%. which is why I rate vod a strong buy.

Moaning Mikey. Why don't you complain to your stockbroker then, Instead of boring us with your constant moaning??? You seem to be totally pissed of with everything.

Jackdawsson, Thanks for mentioning me, but I haven't disappeared, Just been on a ski hol,(spending some of my divi) so now I am back with a very strong buy rating. If you sell now, you are a sucker. Way under priced.

Fleccy, I am a big fan of vod shares at today's price, but to use an example of a 200k investment giving a return of 20k per year is only true if you buy 200k worth today. Me, & most others who post on this forum paid more, so don't get anything like 10% return. For me its about 6%. Still good, but when you quote the current 10% that is not realistic when you have had a very rapid fall in share price, as with vod recently. Most vod investors are losing money, so lets not pretend otherwise.

Big jump at 2.20, Just hope it holds.

downbutnotout, Do you spread bet? I have tried, but normally lose as I think the costs & spread wipe out any profit in the long run. At the end of day 85% of spread bets lose, so I have to be a lot cleverer than most others which frankly I I'm not. But I hope you are, so good luck.

Sell at peaks, buy on troughs, Where can I get the device that you have, to see into the future please? If I could predict the 2% peak & trough every day for the next 3 years, I would be a lot more that 1000% up.

Hi Tom, well done selling when you did. I am still holding all my shares, as I didn't think the sp would fall this low, but I will hold for the long term in the hope of a recovery,as I think the vod sp is well undervalued ,& hopefully, if the divi is maintained, I wont need to sell for a long time. I hope your new investments are doing well. good luck.

john9159. Google computorshare shareholder services, & ask them your question.

Positive Pokerchips, I agree with you 100%, I am well cheesed off with the falling sp, but the constant moaning by some does my head in.

Char, I think Mikey was joking, or does Mikey have inside info?

Apparently works for vodafone! no wonder the shares are doing so badly. I just hope all there staff aren't so negative?

Martin Luther King day. I have a dream, Vod shares will trade at 2.50!

Need I say more?! Oh, sorry I thought I was on Facebook!!!

How do you reason with someone who thinks vodafone should behave like Facebook? Over to you, because he has filtered me.

Thanks longish for your reply, I was thinking about giving up with this forum, most of the sensible posters seem to have gone away to be replaced a lot of constant wingers, but I hope you continue to post your opinions. The graph today looks like a helter skelter, but at least we are up at the moment.

Longish. I am very interested in your post, but? are you saying it may be 15 years for vod to break even? Sorry but please explain in a bit more detail, thanks.

Surely the big question is, does vod pay more in interest on its massive debt than it pays for the divi. If vod can borrow money at a lower rate than it pays on its debt, then of course it should continue to borrow money rather than pay off debt &then should continue to pay a high divi, It's basic common sense, If lower profits however increase the interest rate vod pay on there debts then this could be a problem , however this info seems difficult to get. When I ask on this forum, all I ever get is about free cash flow covers the divi , which I think we all realise by now is not the be all & end all, i.e you have to be able to top up the free cash flow with profits otherwise you end up with no cash flow. I think however, profits will top up the free cash flow, so I think vod is a strong buy. All this moaning about m m 's the yanks bent stockbrokers is just a side show nonsense. Of course as a big investor in vodafone I don't like shorters who undermine the true value of the shares but I accept that it is part of the modern life of investing so just stop moaning about it please. If you can't stand the heat, then get out of the kitchen. Try premium bonds!!!

Welcome to the vodafone share holder moaning forum. As if constantly moaning like a small child who spits his dummy is going to help.. Life is so unfair!! You all need to grow up.

H-hi's patience is waning & he finally loses the plot. I think H-hi should launch a Ponzi coin. totally worthless as is his nonsense posts.
