    Do the certs arrive in some special royal mail envelope?
    Mine arrived today by First Class Royal Mail. Ordinary white window envelope from Equiniti, Lancing, but with 'Important Information This is not a circular' printed on the front.

  • Sabretooth I take it you haven't got your cert yet either?
  • No unfortunately not, if its not delivered I'd expect them to send it again not presume I'll pay for it. I gave them my email and I still have no confirmation I own anything not even the 90p refund thing

    Assuming you got in, and asked for £750 worth, then the 90p won't be paid back to you.

    They said refunds less than £3.30 would be all given to charity.

    Using the drop down box, first select whether you want to buy or sell (you can only sell if you already hold the shares in your portfolio).
    Add the symbol of the stock this can be found using the Stock Information button on the left hand side of the screen.
    Choose which settlement period you want this can be from 3 days to 25 days.
    Decide if you are trading a quantity of shares or a monetary value and then enter the quantity of shares or value of money you want to trade.
    Choose whether you want to trade straight away (Market) or set a Stop Loss or limit (Good For Today / Good Through)
    Finally, enter your Trading password and click on the Next button.
    A price will be displayed together with a breakdown of the charges. You will then have 15 seconds to decide whether you want to accept the price or not. If you want to go ahead and execute the deal, simply press the Accept button and the order will be executed. Your account will be updated automatically and a contract note will be emailed to you.

    What an unpleasant post!
  • Flock of Sheep I don't know what your bleating on about, but if I am moaning or not, it has nothing to do with you. Why don't you go and do your trolling elsewhere.

    Well you have invested in a pretty decent investment which has profited very handsomely in the short term and have basically moaned at literally every aspect of it.

    Today the shares hit over £5 so whats there to moan about.

    That's not the type of sale that ps2659 set up - they set up a limit order to sell when the price hit 5.08. As sabertoothtigger said in an earlier post, the price didn't reach 5.08 so the order wasn't triggered.
