Had a call yesterday from "Debbie" of Barclays complaints team, very apologetic about situation but no idea on resolution.

I said I'd be moving circa £300k of ISA's over to II most likely once resolved,having been with Barclays for Circa 44 years , very dissapointing.

No offer of any financial compensation etc

With Barclays (maybe others) you can do it on the Barclays App, takes 5 minutes

Well, I've just had a call with a chap trying to help but ulimately its in the hands of third parties apparantly, he did say thay had many calls/complaints about it.

Nevertheless I filed a formal complaint just to keep the pressure on.

No compensation though if the share price drops !!

At least they are pricing in sterling now, at the start they took the price in dollars*holdings.

I think I will raise a complaint with Barclays today.

Doing us a favour at the moment, knocking on £2 a share now in old money or is my calculator wonky ?

I'm in same situation, mine in an ISA, just hope they keep going up until sorted.

I would have thought if you were insistent or threatened FCA they would sell manually for us.

I see a market price, currently 2,518p but no buy/sell buttons.

Also I must be daft, I can't translate the $27.18 here too barclays sterling price ?

The 10k/9978 "sell " trades was my transfer of 10k shares to an ISA. Just ready for the massive gains now.......

Sure, looking to add now, this is a slightly slow burn but hot prospect

*33% rise to hit 40p

Nothing mentioned about precious stones. Why do you say that ? http://www.alignresearch.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/Obtala_Align_Research_10th_May_2017.pdf

The potential worlwide is very good.

no liabilities ?

What do you think ?

Not invested here but looking for possible recovery play, drop seems unjustified, however one thing that stuck out was Investec issuing a buy report at 2,685 on 1st August, and now a hold six weeks later at 1,600p , a 40% drop in their valuation. Makes you wonder how close to these companies the ratings agencies are !

Well I bought 5,000 at circa 40p about a year ago so 50% up in a year not too shabby !

Very ! Hmmm , what's brewing ?

Nicholas D Gerber buys another 475,000 shares @24p and already 10% up, nice

All those prior year adjustments have been done, and actually meant that , other things being equal, reported profits in 2013 will be higher, still seems a good chance of Mcap rising, expecially if a takeover bid is launched. Nicholas Gerber bought (lots) more on this price drop... we shall see....

New to this share, as always attracted to sudden drops, and hopefully quick recoveries..... I agree with your post, it looks like someone has over inflated contract wins/turnover reported, presumably to get a bigger bonus/retain their job/look better in an internal league table, happens all the time I am sure and in bigger businesses would just be dealt with internally but here is big enough relative to EBITDA figures to stick out a bit. Knocked a bit of confidence somewhat and restating the accounts may not show the fractional growth reported at 6 months. I'm tempted, as this will be investigated/blow over and the Construction market is picking up so...... Hang in and tough it out, may join you Monday :) No one has run off with any cash (apart from an enhanced bonus maybe)
