Yes mate thats correct, works out at £1.80 per month with the vat on.
I use the Share Centre. If you hold 500 shares in the parent company its £5.25 per trade, if not then its £7.50 per trade. Never had a problem with them. I used to be with Natwest and they were a nightmare.
LOL :)
Never thought Id see these prices again so took the opportunity to top up.
Director deal announced as well as hovering around 24quid a pop, whats not to like? :)
Just bought into this the other day after doing some research. Management seem very switched on and investing in new builds etc. Primarily in here for the divi as a large proportion of my p/f is aimed at income (my biggest holding is IMT) so my intention is to stay here long term 5yrs+. Already in the process of getting my privilege card which is an added bonus :) GLA
Yes I'm sure people find this share "boring" but with a divi increase to around 127.9 and next year to around 139.1 giving a yield of 5.8% and 6.3% respectively I'm prepared to be bored :) This will never be a share for day traders or short termers but will look after long term holders in spades. Sorry to see you go syntax, all the best in your new holding, and mawtus....no doubt you'll be able to buy back in soon, it will be back to the mid 22s before long. I will be boring again and reinvest Mondays divi payment when the price comes back down. GLA
happy to stay invested in this, may even top up on further dips, could be one for the future, time will tell. GLA
Good luck with your new vod shares when the deal is finalised.
Not in vod mate, but whats the deal with Verizon.....just out of interest are you getting shares or cash value?
I have been an investor in this for some considerable time, and the prime reason is the divi. The company is commited to raising the divi year on year by 10pc. Forecast divi for year ending 2014 is 127.04 giving a yield of 5.7pc Forecast divi for year ending 2015 is 138.82 giving a yield of 6.3pc Now, in my opinion, given that there will be an upturn in the economy, I still think you will be hard pressed to get a 6pc return in any bank account at the end of next year. Rather than see the share buyback scheme (which will carry on for a few months yet) as being something to do with JTI making a bid, I believe its more to do with their commitment to increase the dividend by 10pc each year as stated above. The less shares in existence, the bigger dividend for holders. As for plain packaging etc..........I tend to love bad news, anti tobacco lobbyists, government intervention, frenzied media etc, I simply keep some cash ready to buy in low when it inevitably drops and reap the rewards as I watch the price rise back up :) I have no wish to get into an online argument with anyone, these are simply my thoughts on this share, and my main reason for investing in it....the dividend!!!

Hi, I never take any notice of broker ratings and tend to invest on my own research. Panmure Gordon for example have a target price on tesco of 650ish (memory failing me This is a great share to own with super divis and I intend holding for years to come along with the occasional top up. GLA here
