Greend 100, I've also got nothing from HL but I sent an email on Friday and the reply was
I apologise for the delay in responding to your query.
We don't automatically send out notification of shareholder meetings or voting forms to clients who hold shares in an HL Account.
However, this doesn't stop you from partaking or voting in any future AGMs on any of the shares that you hold. If you'd like to attend any AGM or vote on any of the company’s shares that you hold, you simply need to inform us two weeks prior to the AGM and we'll send out a letter of attendance or arrange for you to be on the list of attendees. You can also lodge your votes with us.
Furthermore, you're able to find out the dates for an AGM on our website by first selecting the share that you hold on our website. You then just need to click on the 'Company Information' tab and any upcoming AGM should be listed under ‘Important dates’. If there's nothing listed under future events then you can use the previous AGM listed under past events as an indication of when the next AGM will be, as most companies will hold their AGM's at the same time each year.
You can inform us that you're both interested in attending a meeting, and registering your vote, either by telephone or secure message.
Whilst we don't provide specific AGM notifications we do offer a share alert service which covers Regulatory News Service (RNS) announcements. The majority of listed companies will announce an upcoming AGM via RNS as well as use the RNS to disclose resolutions for voting. You can manage these alerts from within the 'Email Preferences and Share Alerts' tab of the 'Account settings' section of your portfolio.
The alerts are available for UK stocks only and will expire after 90 days.
If you have any other questions, please get back to me.
Best regards
