Vanguard ETF late dividends

Glen_Clark

Just contacted X-O and been told Vanguard registrars still haven't sent out my ETF dividend vouchers and funds that were due on 27th December
Anyone else experiencing this?

No, I got a dividend from VHYL in my Youinvest SIPP on 27 Dec.

Thanks for the reply;
I hold VUKE, dividend credited this morning since I started this thread, but dated 27 Dec when they were all due
Still awaiting dividends from the other 2 I hold VUSA and VWRL (extra delay could be because they are initially paid in US$ ? )

I should add that, as far as I know, I have always received dividends on the morning they are due but most of my shares are held direct not through a platform.
You cannot do this with ETFs.

You may be right. I've previously noticed delays on the Bestinvest platform between dividend date and currency conversion for ETFs where the dividend is in USD/Euro.

All received now, today 2 Jan, dated 27 Dec when they were due.
