Is it a wise move to take up the share offer? I need to move quickly on this if I am going to take it up so I would appreciate some fast feedback.

Thanks:confused:

    Advice I read was not to bother. Cashless shares are worth 1/2p each so I agree with advice.

    I can't advise you but all I know is that RBS and HBOS have had the same thing and the share price has gone up since.

    Weigh up how much it would cost to buy the same amount through a broker as it stands now. Would it cost more than the offer? Do you want to buy more shares anyway?
