So near, yet so far. My wife and I have almost escaped from this shambolic company, my account has been transferred to HL, and we sold all the shares in my wife's account, and after a big battle managed to get the cash transferred back to her bank account.

As things stand now I am one dividend missing that was paid after my account was transferred to HL, supposedly HL are going to chase up the dividend from ITI, I wish them luck. The biggest problem that we now have is with two dividends in my wife's account, PHNX was paid into her Qort account about 3 weeks ago and then disappeared, with a cash withdrawal for the same amount showing in her cash statement ledger in Qort, the second dividend RDSA which should have been paid in to her account on 21st September has not shown up at all. Can anyone confirm that they have had their RDSA dividend paid into their account. With all guns blazing yesterday I banged off threatening e-mails to every address that I could find, no response from any of them, but the PHNX dividend has shown up in her Phoenix account today, so just RDSA to go.

I really would advise anyone who are having problems with transfers, withdrawals or missing dividends to threaten ITI with small claims court action or getting the police involved citing you consider their actions to be theft, to date for my wife and I apart from her RDSA dividend has worked well for us.

Much appreciated if anyone could confirm receipt or otherwise regarding their RDSA dividend.

Shell dividend not payable yet. Goes xd on November 12th and payment in December..

Shell pay dividends on a quarterly basis. Last quarters payment is the one in question. 

I am currently querying the RDSB dividend XD 31/08/20 PAY 21/09/20 along with some others (18 in total) that I can find no evidence of payment in Qort.  

That's why I said "Last quarters payment is the one in question".

My RDSB dividend at the rate of 12.09 p ( ($0.16) was credited as cash deposit on 21-sep-20 ( that's what it shows in the cash statement now whether it was actually credited on 21-sep-20 or not ) in my SC  Qort account.

I on-boarded my joint account, approved back in July having only submitted my own details because that was all they requested to be entered.  Several weeks later they requested details for my wife and the US share trading forms which neither of us had any intention of trading, needless to say we did not fill them in and  instead requested to have the account status reset to leave. The account remained as Qort account and has always shown as in joint names, was described as 'Closure in Progress'
Transfer set in motion with new broker in joint names in September.

8 weeks on and out of the blue I receive an email this time not asking for the US share trading form to be filled in but my wife's banks details I presume so ITI can process this to Phoenix. They state 'due to a technical error' your account has been changed to an individual account but if your wife enters her details it can become a joint account again.

In Qort they now have the account as an 'Individual' and changed the name from MR S AND MRS J JOHNSON to 
MR S AND JOHNSON. They can't even get an individual name correct it really is farcical.

All this after having set in motion a transfer in joint names.
The shares we hold are in joint names with the registrar.
I'm sure this will further delay this transfer. 
Another complaint was added.

One burning question must be - why didn't more people go for a reverse transfer as this would have been a far easier, and quicker, way of getting holdings to the broker of choice?

i guess we never knew what a nightmare this would become

Quite!

I am still waiting for two sets of cash to transfer out, now that all dividends due should have been received and posted (but no way of confirming that). I see no signs of the situation improving.

On the subject of ITIC compensation, I note that despite all the people saying thay have had offers made/accepted, I have yet to see that anyone is actually in receipt of same. Just more false promises then?

Just to confirm, i did receive my cash compensation payment in my bank account 24 hours after confirming my acceptance of the offer.
Hope this helps

Our joint account never 'on boarded' correctly but it was only last month that someone decided to mention that as yet their system wasn't set up for joint applications.  We've received 3 lots of requests to complete CRS forms, W-8BEN forms and yet another joint application form.  I did complete these, reluctantly, as I couldn't see the point, emailed them all off and nothing further happened to that account of course.  One month later another set of CRS/W-8BEN forms arrived by email, requesting completion !!! At this point we threw in the towel, sold our one holding and now patiently (or perhaps not....) tapping our fingers waiting for our cash - whilst waiting I'm completing the FOS complaint form. Unbelievable incompetence.

I'm thinking if the forms were filled in I might have escaped but clearly they have not a clue themselves, their email response is in chase play mode 2 months behind. Left hand does not know what the right is doing.
If shITI Crapital were golfers they have the yips and are sh@nkers.

The sooner they go bust the better.
