Anybody received their Vanguard Lifestrategy dividend?

Hi there,


The Vanguard Lifestrategy 100% income fund (and probably the other Lifestrategy funds) had a dividend settlement date of 29th May. Has anyone received their dividend payment?


I am particularly interested in anyone whose Lifestrategy funds were ex-dividend when they transferred away from HL. Have your dividends been transferred to the new platform, or been sent to you by cheque?


Haven't heard anything from HL about mine, and nothing visible on HL or on the new platform.

    Is the new platform III?
    See the III dividend thread in the ISA forum.

    Thanks. Saw that. However, they were already ex-div when the funds transferred over from HL, so I suspect the dividend will go first to HL, and then.....? Who knows!

    yes, it will presumably go to HL in that case - though i suppose it's the record date, not the ex-dividend date, that counts.

    what are/were the instructions on the HL account for what to do with the income?

    i had a dividend which went to HL under similar circumstances. the instructions were to pay dividends out to my bank account, and they did so on the next 10th of the month, as usual.

    No idea - I'm in the accumulative fund so it gets automatically re-invested anyway... Not sure how to view this "re-investment"..
