    Sold my shares this morning for a net profit of just under £250.

    This was the end game for me, they did not fit into my investment plans. Other than for the quick profit, obviously. First Class.

    I agree with you. I think that all private investors should've been allocates £750's worth, and if that came to a little more than they'd expected to offer private investors, then the corporate investors should've made do with a little less.

    And un thanks to you:rotfl:

    I sold out this morning at £4.51 with my online broker Barclays. However I think it is very unfair that some people could sell now and others like yourself have to wait until Tuesday. Hardly a level playing field.

    I expect the prices will also peak on Tuesday, maybe higher than £4.51, I rather doubt any strike action will cause the price to fall, as those buying right now are long term investors so demand is likely to remain high irrespective of whether the strikes are voted on or not.

    Not at all. I have bought for the income potential.

    Are you the same MABLE that just sold out at 451p?

    Well thought long and hard and unlike some greedy little speculators we have decided to go for the min amount. Hopefully we can be sure of getting these.

    Guess you now come under the greedy little speculator label, MABLE now you`ve sold for 451p ;)

    Even 4% net is a very good return for a BR taxpayer

    For those who bought their shares through the stnadard link who are wondering how they sell them, i've just phoned the helpline.

    The operator confirmed that sometime Monday night I will receive an E-mail with details of how many shares I got and how much I paid(although I think everyone knows they got 277s share at £749.10).

    It will also contain details on how to sell the shares so that you can sell them at your leisure once trading opens.

    She also confirmed that any money you are owed, if you applied for more than £750 of shares, will be refunded on Monday.

    Let's just hope that Equiniti are better equipped to deal with the avalanche of sellers than Hargreaves Landsowne have been...

    Thank you very much for sharing this - most helpful :)

    I'll sit tight until Tuesday morning now :)
