    Received a free share - waited the 3 days until able to sell

    Tried to sell the share at 08.09 and got the following message
    Your bonus share of DTE will be sold during the next 24 hours.


    Then at 16.15 received the following message
    Your order SELL 1 DTE was rejected.



    So I'm left with a share I can't sell


    Has it been 3 clear days? Because I was hoping to sell after 72 hours but its still showing as blocked so I guess it will be freed up tomorrow (ie 3 clear days).


    Btw, I've found live chat to be good but there can be a bit of a queue (15-20 mins)

    Yes, been 3 clear days since share was awarded.
    Wonder if it is due to the share I have you can only buy & sell a minimum of 2 ..... but by doing that it forces you to buy another 2 before you can cash out your free share
    Yes, I know there is no "R" in the word dream in my username - it was setup in memory of my grandson :A

    As I said earlier - either on this thread or the original one on the referral board (which might have been deleted now as it was chat), the selling in twos was a false alarm (raised by me, sorry!). Some shares are, if you click the selling system on the left hand side, only tradeable in pairs. But despite this you can sell singly by clicking the X box on the shares list at the bottom of the page.

    The fact that you got a message saying your share would be sold does NOT imply it can only be sold in pairs - if that was the case it wouldn't have let you get that far.

    I can't explain why the sale was 'rejected' but as the original message said within 24 hours I'd wait 24 hours! Or try again first thing tomorrow anyway.
  • Just been on live chat - although my share was awarded at 08.04 on 28/01/19
    I am not able to cash the share out until 01/02/19 (4 days later)

    Seems the MSE effect is in full swing with goalposts moving almost on a daily basis.

    Perhaps his bank is blocking gambling-related transactions?

    I cashed out my stash of a few shares (after a few referrals) in chunks - and they paid each within about 3 days. Except one, which I withdrew on 1st Feb but haven't yet received. That's two weeks ago!.

    They haven't yet replied to my queries about this - so I'm fairly unconvinced about their ability to manage customers!
