Sorted by savvy pal, what relief.

I hold these in my stocks and shares isa. The last PID divi was paid on 30/7/24 minus 20% for tax, so do I claim that back through my broker, hsbc, or sort it out on next year's tax return? Scratching my head over this so thanks for any advice.

Must be HSBC dragging their feet Pedro, worse things happen. atb

These pid dividend payments have to be watched: I'm still 20% or so short on 11-7-24's payment - HSBC say their hands are tied and that It's a waiting game involving AGR but who needs that? Not a good look and who knows, If I hadn't have checked would I unknowingly have lost it? Anyways, GL all, happy summer.

Krusty,

I've held these for ages and, like you, am delighted with the regular dividends and share price trend. I considered TFIF, as the quarterly divis are also generous, but was a tad wary of having too many eggs in the TwentyFour basket. Overly cautious to a fault maybe, but there you go. GL

Hardly a rock and roller this one Laallee, it's older than my nan and half as lively. However, in this business, there's nowt wrong with that. GL

Https://www.investegate.co.uk/announcement/rns/mercantile-investment-trust-the---mrc/ten-largest-investments-/8302396 Apart from underwhelming GAW, the top ten have all enjoyed a bumper year. Paying an increasingly generous quarterly divi, MRC are looking, dare I say, secure and prosperous. I've been adding over the last few months and am cautiously delighted with the share price, although lap of the gods, all imho, etc. GL all

Bid price mysteriously surging again, not good for my nerves in a pleasant way, if that's possible: what a week....

Same again today, no action yet up she goes. Would be interested to know what went on at last week's AGM, all very clandestine . Luck to all.

Lumax, aye what an odd couple, on here at all hours, waffling away. Takes all sorts I suppose, bit of a waste of a life though. Well done for calling them to account and GL with your better investments.

Aye LOTM was cross ramping over on the OCN a couple of months ago, trying to get me involved with this shower. Bit naughty. I

Up we go on nil trades and zilch news, mystified. 2 year novelty hold for me, divis are ok but love their 'oddball' yet solid status. GLA

...and how. Unlike others in the banking sector, ARBB tiptoeing around car finance mis-selling, all the while churning out both ordinary AND special divis. FUMA up 10%, RAF and AAG delivering, acronym hell or what. Well done ARRB, note to self, never fall in love with an investment. GL all.

CVC offering to convert my holding from euros to good old British pounds but I can't see any benefits. No one posts on here apart from me so just thinking aloud/ typing for therapy.

Of 7% paid quarterly by my favourite 'plodder'. Such slow progress has me nodding off every week day at 4pm in quite a pleasing fashion...no frills/ thrills investing, love it. GL holders, spectators.

Not madness lotm, my profits are far more than the divi after which, how far will it drop? More than happy with MY decision, profits banked and on to new pastures......bye

Too exciting for me, bailed out early and into boring Cvce, plenty upside to come here though gla

Excellent news, Salvador +28%, Rio Grande +20%, profit +30% over prior year. All excellent. GLA

No worries LOTM, I am a bit nervous around penny shares and thankfully held back, each to their own. Hope MIRI improve for you, ATB.

LOTM, thanks for the info, top researching. MIRI looks promising - on my radar now, have a good 'un.
