Regardless, I'm in LLOY for the long run for the capital growth in the share value,

Banks won't return to their early 00's heydays. Lloyds still has branches along with some 9,000 jobs to cut. Challenger banks are also nibbling away at market share. Close Bros, Metro, Secure trust and Paragon to name a few.

Yes, appreciate that, but even if LLOY went to a quarter of its heydays share price, I'd be very happy.

86906 between us (my wife & I) ... at the last count. So a healthy dividend will be a nice little money spinner for us :j

Wow, makes my 3,800 look a bit measly:D

However, I shall be pleased to receive my £28 and look forward to it increasing year on year:T

I've got a few thousand floating about somewhere

Can someone help - how do I find out which account the dividend will be paid into??

The last time was YEARS ago and I've no idea if I even use the same account they used to pay it into

How can I find out?

Thanks

Ooh thats a good point!! I have changed current bank accounts twice since then! Will have to investigate this quickly to ensure I dont miss any payments!

Are us shareholders going to get any bonuses like those at top bosses? No dividends for years and value dropped to almost nothing .....

This share alternative looks interesting for those of you who would like more shares in lieu of the dividend.....

As announced earlier today, the Group is recommending to shareholders, at the annual general meeting to be held on 14 May 2015, that a dividend of 0.75 pence per Share be declared for the full year ended 31 December 2014. The proposed dividend is to be paid on 19 May 2015 to shareholders on the register at the close of business on 7 April 2015. The ex-dividend date will be 2 April 2015.

The Group will be offering a share alternative in the form of a dividend re-investment plan ("DRIP") for those shareholders who wish to elect to use their dividend payments to purchase additional Shares in the Group, rather than receive a cash payment. The last date for shareholders to elect to participate in the DRIP will be 21 April 2015 and shareholders will be credited with the additional DRIP Shares by 28 May 2015. Further details regarding the DRIP will be provided with the annual general meeting mailing on or around 27 March 2015.

If you hold share certificates you can register with Equiniti/Shareview and see/change your details online. You'll need your shareholder number from a certificate or a previous dividend advice slip.

In approximately 3 hours time I will have drunk away the dividend I will receive in May

Still, it's a big step in the right direction. Paying any dividend is a symbolic.

But at the same time, they are trying to shaft the pensioners/etc. who supported them in their hour of need by agreeing to move into the ECNs.
