Wow that is very fast!

[cazspence]

Just felt that I wanted to share (no pun intended!) the fact that I have just processed my Shareholder's Club renewal application, and it has come back approved in only 2 days! Card in the post.

Magic things really can happen!!

That's normal, it's usually approved pretty quick, within 48 hours. It's the wait for the card that can take a quite a few weeks .

Anyone who know how to buy shares when you live in Sweden? I have been searching for this for a long time without finding any good info about it. I have asked several banks in Sweden, but almost everyone say that you can't buy it from them. I found one bank though that could do that, but then my name can't be on the "papers" and therefor I can't be part of the Shareholder's Club, because they don't know that it's me who own the shares...

Try somewhere like Hargreaves Lansdown. They buy/sell shares.

Not sure of any specifics for Sweden, but you need to find a boker that trades on the Paris stock exchange.
There are a few banks / building societies that do that here in the UK, have you tried similar in Sweden?

Have you tried dnb.se? Or nordnet.se? Here in Norway where I live, I could by from dnb.no, and apparently you also could by from dnb.se. I'll think with all non-French banks, your name would never be on the papers. For me here in Norway, I got my brooker to confirm that I own the DLP shares, and DLP accepted that. I did use Nordnet (only phone orders) to buy DLP shares. But keep in mind that with Nordnet I had a little trouble to get them to give me a confirmation letter to send to DLP. Had no trouble to buy though.

Thank you for all the suggestions! I will take a look at dnb.se and nordnet.se to start with.

Now is the time to buy, after the refinancing deal announcement yesterday, the shares fell through the floor

[DLRP Roundup!]

17 emails back and forth, cannot get renewal complete with Halifax.

I literally have screenshot the entire site, they just won't take it. Grrr.

[mnewcourt]

I believe that they only accept a statement on paper that is then photographed or scanned. That was the case with my renewal.

Nope I took a screenshot of my shares balance and also of my purchase dates listing so they could see when they were bought and that was enough. Got a reply back in 2 days saying renewal confirmed and my card 4 weeks later.

I'm starting to believe short of one of the stock exchanges personally vouching for me, it isn't going to happen.

Have you tried phoning them to see exactly why they are not accepting what you are giving them? My renewal was so straight forward, have you tried screenshots of the pages I mentioned above. Your shares summary showing how many you hold and purchase statements showing the days date.

All of the above. I've done this before and not had an issue. However your right, I'll call them when I get home

Does anyone know how the issue of the discounted shares to current shareholders will work?

Our shares are "held" in a Halifax sharedealing account and our sons by Hargreaves Lansdowne - both in the UK.
