jmillskeel - 16 Oct'03 - 17:26 - 7 of 2306

8 million 2.2 mill @ 0.1 2.6 mill 0.05 3 mill 0.048 All good fun

I think that means me me has 15.8 million!

And deb81e has declared a 7 million holding.

me me - 16 Oct'03 - 17:35 - 10 of 2306
Ive got 7,880,658 for the record. See you all Monday of on a long weekend

Sorry just short of 8 mill

matto - 16 Oct'03 - 17:37 - 12 of 2306
Me double counting for you!

matto - 16 Oct'03 - 17:47 - 13 of 2306
I would suggest you guys get organised and get to the AGM on Monday with as many votes as you can muster just so the company don't spring any nasty surprises on you.

Ellemaitch - 16 Oct'03 - 17:49 - 14 of 2306
dont forget my 3 million to your calculations ! nice to see the directors come out with a statement saying they do not know the reason for the sharp movement on this share - that should steady things UP

safman - 16 Oct'03 - 17:50 - 15 of 2306
TOMORROW WE WILL SEE WHETHER OR NOT MMS HAVE BEEN CAUGHT BY THE B*LLS.. i rate mms, experts, but if they have this wrong... ho ho ho.. to the buyers...

psps - 16 Oct'03 - 17:57 - 16 of 2306
i could only get 333,333 instead of 1 mlm

anyway my holding now is 831,110 (peanuts as compared to others)......

Jeff_V - 16 Oct'03 - 18:00 - 17 of 2306
I doubt the registrar could sort us out in time to vote at the AGM. But, it would be interesting if there were significantly more shares registered to vote than there are in circulation, wouldn't it?

cougar6 - 16 Oct'03 - 18:04 - 18 of 2306
does any one have the resoulations for the agm and proxy form with them on ? prob have the most shares on this board

Jeff_V - 16 Oct'03 - 18:10 - 19 of 2306
The MM gamble is that RSV won't find anyone interested in the shell. I'd think that they need to make it a tad more expensive to be safe on that one. Well, tomorrow should be interesting.

Wonder how wealthy the directors are personally. MBO is the other obvious solution at this value.

jmillskeel - 16 Oct'03 - 18:16 - 20 of 2306
can anybody do a good looking table and volume and i'll put it on the header ??

CRIMEPROTECTION - 16 Oct'03 - 18:17 - 21 of 2306
For the record I hold 3 million, 2 mill @ 0.1 & 1 mill @ 0.05. Never mind see what delights tomorrow brings!

Gantenbrink - 16 Oct'03 - 18:38 - 22 of 2306
I've only just been alerted that there was so much posting on this site having raised queries on other sites.

I hold 3,750,000 and am baffled as to what's going on. game There are far more buys that there are shares.Being relatively new to the game I don't know whether I've struck gold or bought a white elephant.

Any straight forward explanations of what's occurring would be gratefully received.

Many thanks

cougar6 - 16 Oct'03 - 18:43 - 23 of 2306
Its a gamble on this type of share but I feel a bid will come

You guys deserve to be rewarded here.Never seen anything like this!

One question, with all the above having over 3% holdings, why no RNS's?

Good luck for tomorrow.

jmillskeel - 16 Oct'03 - 19:23 - 36 of 2306

easymoney03 - 16 Oct'03 - 19:35 - 39 of 2306
ill be top of that list soon im buying up at least 25 million tomorrow its peanuts but if this company can be sold as a shell i will make big time this is a must buy for all the speculators and gamblers out there,ive traded for 15 years and ive never been so interested in a stock it really is a massive gamble i know but ask yourself what a decent shell costs in todays market??my guess is the mm are trying to buy up huge chunks but first they have to lower the price to let all the suckers jump ship then they will take all see you all at the agm....................

Good rise in the morning would be appreciated especially welcomed by top-ups today.

psps - 16 Oct'03 - 20:36 - 50 of 2306
somehow the sums dont add up.

IF bb have around 78 mln shares out of a total holding of 124mln and surl;ey directors must hold the rest................

so where have the MM got the shares to sell (IF NO ONE HAS SOLD)???????????

JAN8MM - 16 Oct'03 - 20:37 - 51 of 2306
Investigation is welcomed,,, MM's caught in the act... went a bit far..

Opthalmist - 16 Oct'03 - 20:38 - 52 of 2306
They are selling your nominee shares (borrowed from the broker) and going short.
Why do you think they charge you for certs?

rarther - 16 Oct'03 - 20:50 - 53 of 2306
Let's not get carried away here ladies & gents.

Having a big chunk of a company is a very nice feeling, but do you really know what's going on with this company?

Reality check!

Yes the market cap has turned to dust (£70k?) and this could be a 5-bagger if the company does what it has been trying to do (rto), but where are these shares that we are buying coming from? Your "6% of company" could actually be 2% or less if Hannover are in fact selling their shares before they've been given them, as someone pointed out earlier.

"It is proposed that Room Service Group PLC will settle its #216,312.35
indebtedness to Hanover in due course by an issue of ordinary shares in Room
Service Group PLC."

The Market Makers aren't idiots. They can see exactly what we're doing but we're blindfolded. They don't just sell more than 100% of a company for pittance and then pay much more for it back shortly afterwards.

They aren't running short of stock, someone is feeding EVO an endless supply. It is not the directors as the statement issued earlier shows.

How much more is the company going to be diluted and what happens afterwards? 75% of shares in the hands of AFN users?(i.e. 75% back in the hands of the mms within a month or two).

I'm holding 1m for the record, too risky & unclear to be anything other than a punt.

Best wishes to those holding.

VERY QUICK - 16 Oct'03 - 20:54 - 54 of 2306
Hi guys did i really start all this buying madness??? Will hope to buy 10 mill more tomoro if there are any shares left to buy.

VERY QUICK - 16 Oct'03 - 20:55 - 55 of 2306
MM's must be completely mad. Ask for all the share certificates and lets see wot happens. they are well short of stock where are all these shares coming from out of a magic hat??????????

VERY QUICK - 16 Oct'03 - 20:57 - 56 of 2306
Maybe MM's have a secret printer for all the shortfall??????

safman - 16 Oct'03 - 20:57 - 57 of 2306
MMS are not stupid.. or are they on this one?? - normally rate mms but they may be in a pickle tomorrow... so it may seem.. we will have to wait and see...

cougar6 - 16 Oct'03 - 21:04 - 58 of 2306
hannover cant sell shares they have not been issued. and the board have to announce any placing to them. so need the stock exchange to look into this one going to be black friday for some one !!

DP1 - 16 Oct'03 - 21:27 - 59 of 2306
Can someone please explain Hannover - Is this a parent company with deals in insurance and property? Or am I barking up the wrong tree?

psps - 16 Oct'03 - 21:34 - 60 of 2306
there should be FULL investigation on RSV trades by LSE on MM ?

i reckon all will come out in the open soon.

rarther - 16 Oct'03 - 21:39 - 61 of 2306
DP1 I don't think anyone knows, the company is so bizarre.

Apparently they are a mining company who bought RSV's debt.

Cannot for the life of me think why they would want to do that...

Anyone care to shed some light?

ps. psps I hold 1m, why don't I get any fame? lol

rarther - 16 Oct'03 - 21:39 - 62 of 2306

rarther,
i will post new holding tomorrow

smraynot - 16 Oct'03 - 21:46 - 64 of 2306
Is it worth buying in at mid point 0.03 first thing tomorrow or are they going into liquidation??

DP1 - 16 Oct'03 - 21:48 - 65 of 2306
I know someone working at Hanover - I'll give him a quick bell

DP1 - 16 Oct'03 - 21:50 - 66 of 2306
Got the answer phone, I'll call again a bit later

smraynot - 16 Oct'03 - 21:51 - 67 of 2306
Cheers,dont want to buy into nothing, can put money down the drain easily.

cougar6 - 16 Oct'03 - 21:51 - 68 of 2306
hanover control about 5 shell companies i think

smraynot - 16 Oct'03 - 21:53 - 69 of 2306
Good luck all for tomorrow and goodnight.

safman - 16 Oct'03 - 21:55 - 70 of 2306
either u guys will be out of pocket.. or the new major sharholders in whatever ltd... all in all mms may be in a spot of bother tomorrow... watch out for buying restrictions...

DPMCQ - 16 Oct'03 - 21:58 - 71 of 2306
Dont own any of these but will be VERY interested to see what happens tommorow.
I am sure there are probably one or two other companies out there that could end up the same way depends on what the outcome of this game is?
Question - don't the peps who bought more than 3% today have to (by LSE law) inform the company or the LSE so an RNS can be issued?

Good Luck to all that hold....

This buying up of a company is very Warren Buffet!!!!

rocket fuel - 16 Oct'03 - 22:17 - 72 of 2306
most of you could have paid half today what you bought for yesterday, and half again tomorrow.

londonmetro - 16 Oct'03 - 22:27 - 73 of 2306
this is where the sums dont add up and we need all parties to make rns to get true picture.... on 28/02/03mr g gold held 25,201,846 ie 20.29%, r pearl owned 18,571,646 ie 14.95%, r cook owned 5,714,280 ie 4.6% that makes a total of 39.84% of company...we hold63.70%

total is 103.54% not withstanding all the smaller holders someone is telling porkies............................

rns's can only sort this out as hannover have not made a rns since feb on the total number of shares held by them it makes it hard to find out total number of shares in issue all i can say is in the last few rns's stock exchange have confirmed to us that as far as they are concerned total no of shares in issue is 124,000,000 so who is lying to us??????????????

should be make a joint approached to stock exchange as we hold just under two thirds of this company as show everyone we are not to be messed with...

good luck to everyone topping up tomorrow ....

alexicacon - 16 Oct'03 - 22:46 - 74 of 2306
londonmetro, It adds up if Hanover had 1000,000,000 shares and wanted to sell as many as they could. Then you lot would only own about 7%.

Here is a list of major shareholders. If ADVFN holders have bought more shares
than exist + some of the holdings listed below, the MMs must be seriously short.
RSV could raise money with a share issue to let the MMs off the hook or the
company could fold up which also lets the likes EVO clean up.

Shares in issue: 124.2m 1p Ords
Major Shareholders Amount % Holding
Gerald Stuart Gold 25,201,846 20.29
Ronald Stuart Pearl  18,571,646 14.95

Okay heres the news for the AGM on Monday, 20th October 2003.

AGM held at RSV Brokers office at 11:00AM

Address
JOHN EAST & PARTNERS LTD
28-30 WORSHIP STREET
LONDON
EC2A 2AH

Tel No.
020 7628 2200

Two new directors are being appointed.

Director 1, Nicholas Greestone
Director 2, Ray Harris

The new proposed company name is going to be Azure Holdings PLC

looks like great fun, but be4 piling in, could someon explain to me the detail of the capital reorganisation...coz i thought i read somewhere that it would mean that Chiddingfold, after converting their £100k loan into 10million shares, would own around 90% of the company...so will the current 124 million shares be turned into 1.24 million shares, ie one share per 100 held?...and if so, why is it then a good investment, or is this why you ahve all been buying so you can stop this happening?...but then if you stop it happening what will happen coz i presume Chiddingfold will jsut demand repayment and it will go bust as it gave all other investments away to Coran?...i think...
jsut asking for info be4 joining in, if i decide to!...ta

It is a well known fact that more shares can be sold than are in issue. While
people hold shares in nominee accounts, billions could be sold but there would
be a problem if people asked for their certificates. The registras would only
allow only shares in issue.

This was in the finals but not very clear. Someone needs to get the circular that accompanied the AGM notice to get full details:

The auditors have drawn attention to the 'going concern' status of the Group
because there are at present no trading businesses while there remain a number
of creditors outstanding. On 3 April 2002, Hanover Capital Group plc ('Hanover
') announced that it was to acquire the outstanding debt of £216,000 from the
creditors of Room Service Group plc.

In the event, Hanover only succeeded in acquiring debt of £119,760 from the
creditors of the Group, leaving £96,740 outstanding. The directors have been
notified that Chiddingfold Investments Limited ('Chiddingfold') has acquired the
Hanover debt and has accordingly become a creditor of the Group.

Your directors have agreed that Chiddingfold will enter into arrangements to
make a loan of £100,000 to the Company, convertible, subject to shareholder
consent, into ordinary shares at 1p per share after the capital reorganisation
referred to below, to enable it to discharge its remaining creditors.

During the course of the year, the company incurred a liability to Coran
Investments Limited ('Coran') for the provision of services. The company has
agreed to discharge this liability by transferring its remaining investments to
Coran. On realisation, Coran shall be entitled to retain the first £50,000 of
sale proceeds with any surplus over £50,000 being shared equally between Coran
and the Company.

Included in the notice of meeting accompanying the financial statements are
details of a capital reorganisation, designed as a first step towards placing
the company in a position to seek an acquisition, which would be a reverse
takeover, intended to restore some value to shareholders.

PaulKent - I think you're probably spot on. The proposed dilution seems about right and these shares may already be being sold by the MMs. If there's a vote at the AGM on it and I believe there will be, presumably the directors will try and force the issue by saying unless the vote is passed the company will have to be put into administration as Chiddingfold will demand immediate repayment of the debt.

on the other posting shows the new proposed directors , one I think was auditor, its the same gang behind many shells, they take fees in shares for doing little. there are more shares being traded than avaible. so it has to be that they are selling short knowing that on monday they will approve the new issue for debt and will have recovered some cash at discount. we need to have agm put off and let the mm and board no how we feel

ha, brugha..fair point...but i think its pretty obvious that one share was bought...but i dont know what it means?!!!

and re the concert party...i presume they would have to prove that parties were acting together "with a view to bid" in order to enforce the "highest price paid in prev 12 months rule"....whereas i think whats happened here is jsut that everyeones bought and then realised they own (possibly) a big chunk of company...

rescuer - 17 Oct'03 - 10:26 - 147 of 2306
Just a couple of points that i've picked up on reading this mornings posts.

1) > there is a sugestion that there may be a dilution at the AGM on Monday, hence EVO's selling this short.

If that were to be the case, EVO's are acting totaly unethicaly, as they are not in a position as anyone else is, to predetermin the outcome of a meeting and the fact that they are gambling on the "insolvency issue". If they are aware that if diultion doesn't take place then the company will fold, then they shouldn't be maeking a market, where they KNOW that what they are selling you is overvalued. This is a serious breach of regualtions, is indsider dealing and a matter which needs to be taken up by the FSA at once.

2) if Chiddingfold spit there dummy out and pull out, so what, the dozen or so "major shareholders" could replace Chiddingford and offer the finance, it's only double what you guys have already put in anyway, and with a return of 0.6p cash per share, you'll still have a 300% return on your investment.

I don't want you to feel as if i'm teaching my granny to suck eggs here, so apologies in adavnce if i'm stating the obvious, but when the big buys started coming in, i;m sure most of you were buying for a quick return, a bounce, a bit of fun or even all. But the goal posts have change somewhat, and you guys are now in a very powerful position, dont let the market rip you off, or the "new board" for that matter, your voice pre - AGM is louder than anybodys.

Kael - 17 Oct'03 - 10:27 - 148 of 2306

PaulKent - 17 Oct'03 - 10:31 - 149 of 2306

what if they already knew of "eligible" votes cast to agree on dilution?..and maybe purchases made in alst few days wont be eligible?..
and re market making..cant see its their fault if loads of people want to buy something that will be devalued soon...and if the demand is great then they had to raise price surely..?..the only "unethical" thing they might be doing is selling a share for more than THEY think its worth...but hell, thats what makes the market work in the first place isnt it??...otherwise why would ANYbody sell ANYthing!

dell314 - 17 Oct'03 - 10:31 - 150 of 2306

It's like me being CEO of Vodaphone and ringing U this afternoon saying "oh by the way Paul, sell all of your VOD shares, coz were going to issue anther 500m on Monday, which will no doubt screw the price, but dodn't tell anyone.

matto - 17 Oct'03 - 10:52 - 153 of 2306
Some good points made above. Other things which may be worth noting

Currently the shares are 1p Ords. It is not possible to issue new shares at below 1p (the nominal price)

The Capital Reorganisation will need to be passed before new shares at 0.01p (or similar) can be issued. This I think may require more than a simple majority to be passed.

There may be rules in the company articles which allow for adjournment of meetings.

The dirty dozen seem to have disappeared, presumably they're busy sorting all this out!

I have just spoken to Simon Clemence at the company brokers 020 87628 4473 to try and see what will happpen at the Agm.

Forgive my lack of technical knowledge etc but if I understood correctly they will probably look to (I forget the term but) basically change every 100 shares for 1 new one hence in effect every share valued at say .05p today would then be worth 5p.

From other bits I have read I understand that possibly some of the major creditors have the right to convert their debts to shares at 1p per share so hence if the other resolution goes through they could get lots and lots of shares at about 20% of the current price.

I hope I have got this right but would welcome anyone elses confirmation and indeed their interpretation.

I am a nominee shareholder and at present am trying to establish whether I can get to vote for having spoken with the registrars I do not as yet appear on the register ( Capita Registrars Kevin Matthews 020 8639 2107). I wonder if a number of the other major holders are in the same boat possibly able to attend but not to vote which could mean resolutions could just sail through as planned.

Any more info/ explanations would be useful

Thanks

rescuer - 17 Oct'03 - 13:17 - 164 of 2306
Ganten >> it's not the fault of the new major shareholders that the registers have not or won't be undated in time, however, proof of delivery (your contract notes) should suffice. You need to ring the registars and they may ask you to fax your contract notes thro, but if you can circumnavigate the the slow process of registration it would be beneficial to you guys at the AGM. Dont take no for an answer, they are legaly obliged to offer you a voice and vote, but they may try to stall so they can move Monday forward without any complications.

matto - 17 Oct'03 - 13:23 - 165 of 2306
If you hold through a nominee I don't think the registrars can help. You probably need a letter from your broker stating your entitlement to vote but proof of your holding - as a very last resort - may be sufficient.

Once you're there it may be best to vote against everything. Certainly you have to vote against the capital reorganisation.

Im afraid advfn will not save this company, the major shareholders will walk all over you.

cougar6 - 17 Oct'03 - 13:44 - 168 of 2306
they will only issue shares at settlement date they tell me

PaulKent - 17 Oct'03 - 13:45 - 169 of 2306
so in a nutshell, we have a band of holders who have probably bought in the last few days and who IF they are able to vote would certainly be able to block the capital reorganisation, which was after all subject to shareholder approval. This would then probably trigger Chiddingfold calling in their debt, which would then mean the new "owners" would have to find the £100000, but at this stage that would almost certainly represent better value for them than simply seeing a 10:1 dilution, (altho someon earlier mentioned the company had cash?..but doubtful that theres enough to pay off the £100k or they would ahve done it already?..)
so, it seems to boil down to whether shareholders have the right to vote regardless of whether their holdings are held in nominee accounts or if the have no certificates or the Registrar hasnt recognised it. Im sure there must be ways round all these; surely, IF someone legally owns something, then nobody else can vote in their place, which means they wouldnt be able to get the necessary %age of all votes required for the capital reorganisation?...does anyone know the legal position on all of this though rather than my idle speculation??!!

regarldess of certs is it not possible for people to prove ownership?..surely the people they bought the shares off couldnt vote either if it was down to certificate production, coz they would have had to return theirs?..the FACT of ownership ought to be provable by an individual in a way which was acceptable to a non-biased registrar surely?

shorting a minnow ??????????? how do you know

scotty500 - 17 Oct'03 - 14:11 - 201 of 2306
paulKent - Whats your take on this, these buggers are making my wallet itchy + I'd love to twat some MM's ?

matto - 17 Oct'03 - 14:14 - 202 of 2306
Here's something. I think the Capital Reorganisation will require high court approval. Don't know whether this helps, but it may mean the D4E cannot be voted on on Monday.

cougar6 - 17 Oct'03 - 14:14 - 203 of 2306
the legal posistion is complex and the company will not no the answer , there nomads will , but are unlikley to come to meeting and put them on the spot at short notice

dell314 - 17 Oct'03 - 14:31 - 204 of 2306
Why do you think the seller chose the particular day to sell that they did?
The way I see it, with settlement being T+3, none of you new holders will have any rights at the AGM and any vote will be a foregone conclusion on previously agreed commitments from large holders.....

im a big gobsmacked that the mms ALLEGEDLY have been selling shares they might never have, if , foe instance the capital reorganisation is not passed on monday, which i presume IS the agenda for monday??..altho no one has confirmed this yet..IF they are selling shares like this, it can only mean one of two things...either they know the rules inside out and are confident that the vote will go through because whoever they have sold shares to recently cannot participate..OR they have made a right balls up and could be in serious doo doo...what i DONT undersantd is how Maggie can have HER recent purchases approved and registered (As per RNS) by the Registrar for the company, and yet others can not...theres no way an MM could know whether its MAggie buying or someone else throug a nominee account..so i tend to favour the balls up scenario at the moment and i hope the "dirty dozen" (who the hell gave them THAT name..i prefer the "magnificent seven", coz im sure theres neither 12 or 7!!)manage to get the AGM deferred because of the clear confusion about who owns what or find a way to make sure they can vote and get the cap reorg deferred...plus the point someone made re the High Court sounds spot on too..so that would be a place to challenge too, altho if all the High COurt does is ratify an AGM vote, it might still be crucial to beat that vote or defer AGM...the play to me seems to be to squeeze the mms into having to accept their balls up and to cough up compensation to somebody!!!!

PaulKent - 17 Oct'03 - 14:37 - 206 of 2306
dell...good point..and ur prob right..but even IF the AGM vote goes through, surely the MMs will STILL on Tuesday/WEdnesday have to settle shares bought PRIOR to the reorganisation (which apparently wont physically happen till High Court approves?), and so there will still be too many shares in circulation?..or do you think all the other key shareholders will have sold in the last couple of days and they havent sold stock they dont have?..its a fun one isnt it!

scotty500 - 17 Oct'03 - 14:50 - 207 of 2306
I guess in the overall scheme of things if the MM's get caught short...its peanuts for them anyway !

matto - 17 Oct'03 - 14:51 - 208 of 2306
The MMs can probably be short for a long as they like.

If the capital reorganisation does require high court approval then surely it would be possible to have an EGM in the meantime -providing it was called ASAP - to vote against the capital reorganisation and simply drop the high court action.

rescuer - 17 Oct'03 - 14:53 - 209 of 2306
I'm not that old only 37 years, but if my education serves me well, is this not the second time something like this has happened ??, the other being in 1952 or 1953, when Mr Robert Maxwell, aledgedly sold 2.5m shares, he did have in a printing company he was selling, if my memory serves me well, i think he got away with it. But times have moved on since then.

PaulKent - 17 Oct'03 - 14:57 - 210 of 2306

EGM idea sounds possibility...
and i dont undersantd what you mean re mms can go short as long as they like...surely they have to deliver stock at some point...

If the dilution goes thro on Monday, i think the "dirty dozen" will become "12 Angry Men", cracking film.

PaulKent - 17 Oct'03 - 15:00 - 212 of 2306
well if the doom and gloom scenarion IS correct and the MMs know what theyre doing, why the hell are they raising the bid again...they have no need to, UNLESS THEY NEED STOCK!!!...maybe they are starting to realise their problem?..and hoping to flush out some sellers??..surely if they were unconcerned theyd just sit on the lowest bid they could now?!..its all baffling as hell to me...but most excitment Ive had since CRI....ooops..bad link!!

Anyways off to collect the kids from school, wont be back till monday, as the AHT thread has it's annual meet, (piss up) in Warwickshire, eh, the power of the day trader.

Paul, even if the doom & gloom scenario is correct what's to stop the MMs making even more money by raising the price.

fair point..but why raise the bid at all?..they havnet been embarrassed by the huge spread all day so why not leave it where it was?..theyre paying 0.6/0.7 now i guess?

PaulKent - 17 Oct'03 - 15:12 - 221 of 2306
yup..think they are offering over 0.7 now..and you cant even BUY £50 worth online now!!!!

This is posted on Ample BB - rofl

FOr the first I suddenly find myself owning a reasonable chunk (circa 3%)of a seemingly popular company but am not sure whether to be happy.

There is a lot of traffic on the advfn site but no-one seems any the wiser.

There is an AGM on MOnday at the company's appointed brokers
John East & Co Tel 020 7628 2200 for anyone interested.

Baffling the company has been bought almost twice over in the last couple of days but the price hasn't gone up.

I will be interested to see what happens if all those who currently own shares turn up and try to vote because that would on the past couple of days record mean far more votes than shares which in my humble opinion can't be legal.

I wait with interest, anticipation and worry to see how this develops. Champagne or water next week we shall see.

londonmetro - 17 Oct'03 - 15:17 - 223 of 2306
I mentioned to the brokers that currently we have a situation where it appears more than 100% of a company is owned which is highly unusual.

Agincourt - 17 Oct'03 - 15:18 - 224 of 2306
Also this ion the Ample BB ---

Mickie, are you knew here? You obviously don't know that Room Service Deliveries are no longer connected to RSV. A brief history of time for you:

This share originally listed as incubator Cube8.com in the heady days. Its value declined over two years to the point where it agreed to be bought out by Room Service. Cube8 had a small stake in Room Service at the time and knew the business.

Room Service was a decade old business run by Ronnie Pearl and Gerald Gold. On paper it was profitable and rising at a rapid rate. When it took over Cube8 and became RSV it had its main food delivery business, a couple of other businesses and all the portfolio of businesses and investments owned by Cube8.

Thanks to taking over Cube8, Room Service got its hands on around £1m liquid cash - by existing some of the Cube8 investments.

12 months after becoming RSV, Room Service had gone from a profitable ten-year-old company with an extra million of investment to bankruptcy. No reasonable explanation was given by Ronnie Pearl and Gerald Gold, and shares got suspended more than once because they failed to file accounts on time, so there were no accounts or news to tell shareholders what had happened.

Room Service Deliveries was into administration and was sold to another company. Ronnie Pearl apparently resigned as a director of RSV (although I don't remember a public announcement about this material event) and is listed as a staff member on Room Service Deliveries website.

Gerald Gold remains a director of RSV and does not appear to be working for Room Service Deliveries. RSV has no assets, has a debt liability and basically the only thing going for it is this listing, which is worth something to somebody. It also means the business is less weighty now so possibly growing more attractive by the day.

Personally, until I see what happened to the funds from Cube8 portfolio and the supposedly profitable ten-year-old business that went from hero to zero in 12 months, I will not reinvest. But I do watch with keen interest. My shares lost 90% of their value before RSV. Then almost 100% after RSV took over. You could say it's ready to bounce, but then you could say Ian Duncan Smith is going to be Prime Minister.

scotty500 - 17 Oct'03 - 15:18 - 225 of 2306
L2 is 2 @ 0.06 v 1 @0.1 [EVO]

Agincourt - 17 Oct'03 - 15:19 - 226 of 2306
and yet more !!!!

There is only one reason to say you don't know why your share price is moving, and that's because the truth is the opposite.

These bozos have a history of not telling shareholders anything at all. They've hardly announced all the things they have done, like material events - changes to board etc. The acocunts are a shambles (or possibly even a sham). I hope an investigation IS on the way. About time. Mr Gold, please give us an honest explanation of how this company has spent its money over the past year.

Hi guys I'm back fill me in on wots been going on. I see bid and offer up. anymore large share holders joining us.

psps - 17 Oct'03 - 15:29 - 230 of 2306
VERY QUICK,
i dont believe that you have 8 MLN..otherwise we would seen your name in todays RNS ?????????

PaulKent - 17 Oct'03 - 15:30 - 231 of 2306
right...have done a bit of checking..and this is my best understanding of the situation
basically, IF you buy a share in a company today, say 1%, then even AFTER capital reorganisation, you must STILL have 1%..so IF mroe shares have been sold than exist, then the capital reorganisation will not help out those who have sold stock they havent got..
the vote for capital reorganisation only needs 50% of those voting on monday (ie NOT 50% of TOTAL shares, jsut of those voting) to go through, and IF it is voted for it does NOT need to then go to High Court...it will be effective on tuesday...
you can ONLy vote if you are on the register on monday..if you arent you cant..and if it hasnt been settled beforehand than you cant vote coz u wont be on register...
however, even if the reorganisation goes through, the MMs will STIL HAVE TO DELIVER THE SAME PERCENTAGE OF COMPANY after the reorgansiation that you bought this week!...so basically..it is one helluva mess..and i think the people who have sold stock they havent got (and Directors ARENT selling!) will be desperate to get some to settle books!

OK VERY QUICK i believe you

i aint selling my holding

matto - 17 Oct'03 - 15:45 - 240 of 2306
You're right the capital reorganisation will not affect your holding. However, it is a necessary step before the D4E can go ahead. Shares can only be issued at a value that is above their nominal value. Current nominal value is 1p, so anyone who wants D4E has to accept 1p per share. The reorganisation is happening so that the market value of the shares is moreorless equal to their nominal value and then D4E is attractive.

I presume the D4E vote is being held Monday.

alia - 17 Oct'03 - 15:46 - 241 of 2306
must say mms have done well today by keeping the buying down and some selling. if they would have risen the price much higher, it would have bought a lot more buyers today

PaulKent - 17 Oct'03 - 15:46 - 242 of 2307
nobody should sell..theres no point...you are GUARANTEED (so i understand) to own as much of a percentage AFTER the capital reorganisation (but before the d4e swap) as you do before...and they simply wont be able to deliver..!..god knows what happens then..but i cant imagine youll lose money out of it!..(MUST delcare that im jsut a fascinated spectator tho so its easy for me to say!!!!)

PaulKent - 17 Oct'03 - 15:49 - 243 of 2307
of course, dont forget the Chiddingfold will stil be able to convert and get 90% of co post reorganisation, so thats still an issue...but i would have thought the "allocation of shares" problem would need resolving first, or else how can Chiddingfold be given THEIR shares???..

londonmetro - 17 Oct'03 - 15:53 - 244 of 2307
very quick dont wait for halifax to do the job write a letter and fax it to john east and partners they will do it fax no 0207 628 4473 ask them for a copy of agenda you can vote get halifax to vote as a proxy we have rights we own the shares

Holding shares in a nominee account has no bearing on advising the market if you have a notifiable interest. ring your broker and get them to sort it out.

Gantenbrink - 17 Oct'03 - 15:59 - 249 of 2307
I don't know whether it will work but I've been on to the company who hold the shares for me "Ample" and they are faxing the registrars to confirm that I own the shares. They feel that should be sufficient for me to be able to vote as I will then be on the registrars list.

If we vote against the dilution why would Chiddingford call in the debt if they couldn't recoup the money. As everyone says that would probably crash the company so they would lose it. Is Chiddingford a public company? If so is it worth buying a few shares there to be able to ask the embarrassing question why they would crash RSV and lose their shareholders money. Does this make sense or has conspiracy theory gone to my head?

clocktower
u might be right..but there is a very real chance that shares HAVE been sold which the vendors DIDNT have...this will ahve repurcussions if proved correct..and the capital reorganisation will NOT get them off thehook on that particular point as they must deliver the same percentage POST reorg (but before d4e) as was bought BEFORE reorg..

matto - 17 Oct'03 - 16:20 - 256 of 2307
The MMs will just own a negative number for a while. By the time anyone's got round to counting them all up D4E will be done, and Chiddingfold who may possibly be in on it anyway, will happily accept the equivalent of 0.4/0.5p for however many shares the MMs need.

PaulKent - 17 Oct'03 - 16:22 - 257 of 2307
not if an EGM gets called after the AGM, which i presume could happen...?..whats the timescale for the d4e to go through and does THAT need voting on as well, or is it ALl happening on monday as a done and dusted deal?

matto - 17 Oct'03 - 16:24 - 258 of 2307
D4E appears to need a vote. If the capital reorganisation can be done and dusted Monday, I don't see any reason why the D4E can't be done at the same time and the shares can be trading next week.

at last you are famous with the largest holding from this bb

WOW

knitcraft - 17 Oct'03 - 17:20 - 263 of 2307
What a load of crap most posts on here are!!!!

You are right....you will still have the same percentage holding after the reoganisation.....STILL WORTH F--K ALL ..... as it is now.

At best the share price after reorganisation will likely still be the same as it is now,or at worst the company will be in liquidation.

There is no way the marketmakers don`t know what they are doing and they will be the only ones to make anything from this debacle.

This is the type of episode that gives MM`s and the SE a bad name.

Only too happy to be prooved wrong, but sure I wont.

hugeportfolio - 17 Oct'03 - 22:52 - 267 of 2307
Jmillskeel, do you have any plans to increase your holding in RSV? Who knows you could get 51%. How much did your 9.74% stake in the company cost? Cant be bothered to do the sums it nearly 11pm!

jmillskeel - 18 Oct'03 - 07:11 - 268 of 2307
jmillskeel -------- 12 Mln = 9.74% ***
photo director --- 10 Mln = 8.0% ***
very quick---------- 8 Mln = 6.4%
me me --- 7.8 Mln = 6.3%
deb --- 7 Mln = 5.6%
m.samea --- 6.6 Mln = 5.3%
easymoney -- 5 Mln = 4.0%
London metro ----- 4.5 Mln = 3.6% ***

ellenaitch ---- 3 Mln = 2.4%
Crimestopper---- 3Mln = 2.4%
jeff-v--- 2.6 Mln = 2.1%

*** known

So who's for real from the above, if you are we need to talk...

I know of at least 21.34% any more ??

also the smaller holders

jmillskeel - 18 Oct'03 - 07:27 - 269 of 2307
From the iii site, have we already spoke ??

Dyor but my humble opinion is that on Monday at the Agm a capital re-organisation will be voted upon where every 100 shares will be converted to 1 thus a 100 shares at .08p will become 1 at 8p.

AsI say dyor but a company called Chiddingford has an outstanding loan to RSV of I believe £100,000 which can be converted to shares at 1p. So no point them doing it today but if the resolution goes through on Monday then suddenly Chiddingford can have £100,000 of shares at 1p each being 12% of value today. This will create a huge number more shares for trading.

At present I think the MMs are selling shares on the basis that this will happen hence far more shares being bought than exist today.

The interesting thing would be if the resolution doesn't go through on Monday then then either Chiddingford call in their debt which would probably crash the company so is it worth their while? OR the MMs suddenly have to meet the huge oversubscription of shares that they have sold.

The latter would if correct of course be great news for those like myself with a big stake however the downside is that a large number of people would appear like myself to have their shares in nominee accounts and are like myself frantically trying to get their account holders to provide the necessary paperwork to allow us to vote.

This has been a fascinating story for a relatively new trader like me. I strongly suggest that anyone checks the facts out for themselves but key numbers are:-

John East & Ptnrs - Simon Clemence 020 7628 2200 who are the appointed brokers for the company.

Also Capita registrars 0870 1623100 who are the registrars although bear in mind nominee shareholders do not appear on the register.

I hope this helps and would be interested to hear from anyone with definite facts/ figures etc as I am hoping to attend the AGM on Monday at 11am at John Easts offices 28-30 Worship St EC2A 2AH

JAN8MM - 18 Oct'03 - 09:40 - 270 of 2307
Yup,,, 100 of existing ordinary shares of 1p will hold 1 new ordinary share of 1p. that is what a TDW Corporate action notice I got in mail this morning said. Also proposing to change company name to "Azure Holdings PLC"

Jmills Mucka,
I now hold 276,213 shares @ an average of 0.18.
a small holding compared to yours,
but on my small holding i can keep pigs & build a house.

uknighted - 18 Oct'03 - 10:50 - 272 of 2307
In response to jmillskeel posting vis a vis the Chiddingford debt. I would have thought that as the agreement was struck sometime previously the conversion rate for the debt will now be adjusted to take account of the capital reorganisation.
The agreement should state the demonination of the share and this will therefore be adjusted for the share consolidation exercise.

cougar6 - 18 Oct'03 - 10:57 - 273 of 2307

Daily mail: 18th October 2003

'Delivery service provider Room service edged up 0.03 to 0.08 after directors said they knew of no reason for the recent sharp movements in the share price. But rumours suggest a 1-for-100 share consolidation and financial reconstruction could be on the cards.'

My comment:

Not bad news...instead of tax losses of 3p per share, we will have £3 per share. AIM listed company will be 20p per share instead of 0.2p per share.

All good news in my opinion.

Thanks to everyone going to the AGM to support us smaller holders!

Have now made you managing director of me Pub on THUS, cos very soon, we are going to float that one as well, but the price will be £1,000 / share & we will split the proceeds equally on every share i will get £900, & you will get £100, so that when we have a share split, you shares will be equal to wot i ad.
Advised to do that by our Financial director, Soysoy

Just fancied a bit of the action I suppose.
The shares were flying and unfortunately it was too close to the end of trading to do much research.
In hindsight it wasn't a wise move but it seems to be fun and it wasn't a huge punt.
Have you bought? And why?

Let the games commence

Dear Sir

I am a holder of 200 thousand shares in this company (Room Services)

You are no doubt aware at this stage of the very significant changes in share ownership to recently affect this share.

I request that no corporate action be taken, pending clarification of these positions.

If actions are taken despite the management and it's advisors being aware of the changed

ownership of the company I shall investigate a legal route to protect my interests.

Your sincerely,

As a holder I hope you are right. But why should it "rocket"?
The sales on friday seemend to be covering the purchases so is there a stock shortage?

brugha - 19 Oct'03 - 16:38 - 327 of 2307
uknighted- What size is your holding and how do you see this playing out?

I've there is to be a share consolidation, which is essentially irrelevant, as it doesn't alters one's percentage holding.

There must be new shares being issued, but I haven't read how many?

londonmetro - 19 Oct'03 - 17:08 - 328 of 2307
It is important that if you have any sort of share holding you read the note at the top of this BB and act on it.
It may not work but it is in all our interests with the huge volume of shares traded recently and the confusion that this brings to get a postponememt of the AGM.
It should only take 5 minutes of your time.
Fax them,e-mail or phone before 10 o'clock Mon.am

the party is over boys and girls. I should imagine that you will be informed of a pending announcement that a substantial dilution to shares outstanding is about to take place. you try dumping your millions onto market if that is the case,will be lucky to get .02 on the bid. it will be a race to see who gets the first rns out declaring your disposals.

uknighted - 19 Oct'03 - 19:44 - 337 of 2307
Brugha

I have a holding of 250k.

I suspect that if the agm goes ahead everything will go through approved.

I believe that Chiddingfords debt for share swop will not benefit by the share consolidation i.e. Chiddingford will still get pro-rata to the original agreement.

I see the share stagnating or falling tomorrow (assuming LSE don't suspend it) but the spread will not enable me to make any momey, but its interesting all the same.

jmillskeel - 19 Oct'03 - 19:56 - 338 of 2307
rescuer - 17 Oct'03 - 10:26 - 147 of 337

Just a couple of points that i've picked up on reading this mornings posts.

1) > there is a sugestion that there may be a dilution at the AGM on Monday, hence EVO's selling this short.

If that were to be the case, EVO's are acting totaly unethicaly, as they are not in a position as anyone else is, to predetermin the outcome of a meeting and the fact that they are gambling on the "insolvency issue". If they are aware that if diultion doesn't take place then the company will fold, then they shouldn't be maeking a market, where they KNOW that what they are selling you is overvalued. This is a serious breach of regualtions, is indsider dealing and a matter which needs to be taken up by the FSA at once.

2) if Chiddingfold spit there dummy out and pull out, so what, the dozen or so "major shareholders" could replace Chiddingford and offer the finance, it's only double what you guys have already put in anyway, and with a return of 0.6p cash per share, you'll still have a 300% return on your investment.

I don't want you to feel as if i'm teaching my granny to suck eggs here, so apologies in adavnce if i'm stating the obvious, but when the big buys started coming in, i;m sure most of you were buying for a quick return, a bounce, a bit of fun or even all. But the goal posts have change somewhat, and you guys are now in a very powerful position, dont let the market rip you off, or the "new board" for that matter, your voice pre - AGM is louder than anybodys.

JMK et al……

I have just e-mailed Simon Clements the following.

Dear Sir

I am a holder of One Million RSV shares and I am concerned with the rumours on the Internet bulletin boards about an imminent dilution of my holding.

I am 100% behind Mr Jonathan Mills-Keeling in his effort to postpone the AGM for 28 days.

Please could you advise me of any developments from the AGM.

Good luck tomorrow. Unfortunately I won’t be able to attend.

jmillskeel - 19 Oct'03 - 20:15 - 341 of 2307

Gantenbrink - 19 Oct'03 - 20:21 - 342 of 2307
Sorry been out of contact all day. I will be at the meeting tomorrow and as I say have 3,750,000. My father also attending and he has another 500,000 I believe.

I am trying to sort out the letter of representation from iii/ Halifax. Unfortunately they sent me one but for someone else! They have assured me they will sort it out with the registrars for tomorrow.

Meantime I am emailing Simon Clemence asking for a postponement.

Good luck to us all.

Gantenbrink - 19 Oct'03 - 20:38 - 343 of 2307
E mail just sent to Simon Clemence

I currently hold 3,750,000 shares in RSV via iii/Halifax.

Martyn Hancock of Ample shareholding has I am assured notified you of my interest.

I am concerned at proposals of which I have heard regarding capital re-organisation.

From bulletin boards I am aware that a large number of people have bought shares in the same way as myself via nominees having seen them asking for advice as to how they can prove their ownership of shares.

I understand that because of the importance of the above a number of shareholders have asked for a 28 day postponement of the AGM in order that the interested parties can arrange the necessary documentation. I would add my full support to this proposal for if as would seem to be the case a substantial percentage of the company is owned in this way it would only seem fair that they are able to have a say in the way the company moves forward.

Dear Mr. Clemence

Room Service Group PLC

I am writing to inform you that I am the beneficial owner of one million (1,000,000) shares in RSV.

My holding are in a nominee account at Etrade.

I am wholly opposed to the capital reorganisation which I believe is proposed.

I am requesting a 28 day postponement of the AGM so that matters relating to the large changes in ownership of shares in this company which have taken place in the last few days may be resolved.

If there is no postponement I will be consulting my solicitors immediately with a view to taking legal action against the directors of the company.

I will not be able to attend the AGM but you may take it that Mr. Jonathan Mills-Keeling speaks for me, he has my proxy.

I was in this a while ago, sold out as i saw a drop trend, i can only see at best now - consolidation and or suspension of shares, i cant see this "rise to 3p" anymore without consolidation, then you only have in value what you started with.

I don't get it, can someone explain the real reasons for this mass buy in, cos i'm out and happy

If MM's cant deliver the stock then they are going to be in deep trouble with FSA are they not????

londonmetro - 20 Oct'03 - 09:31 - 389 of 2307
Very Quick - just to say what you have done is the correct thing.

If anyone wants an RNS made you need to fax simon Clements on 0207 628 4473 and give him your name,shareholding and percentage and he should then have to issue it.

PaulKent - 20 Oct'03 - 09:36 - 390 of 2307
Well Ive got on board simply because there HAS to be a fair chance that the MMs HAVE to buy back loads of stock theyre short of...i see they are willing to take a million off us today online but only sell us 100000 for starters...chances are that if for some reason their "deal?" with Chidding doesnt materialise they are BOUND to be so short of stock that they have to pay through the nose for it?

VERY QUICK - 20 Oct'03 - 09:37 - 391 of 2307
5.7 million buys and only 50000 sell today sofar looking good.

PaulKent - 20 Oct'03 - 09:37 - 392 of 2307
I would also suggest that eeryone holding makes a note of their PERCENTAGE holding before the cap reorg so that they can be sure they get what they should after it!..but be4 the d4e obviously if it goes thru!

VERY QUICK - 20 Oct'03 - 09:38 - 393 of 2307
No reply from Simon Clements regarding my sent e-mails from this morning. Maybe he has had a heartattack or left the country????

PaulKent - 20 Oct'03 - 09:38 - 394 of 2307
Im sure, or at least presume, Simon is already at AGM in discussions with Board?

PaulKent - 20 Oct'03 - 09:39 - 395 of 2307
also presume that mms most at risk will ahve someon there, or at least will be waiting on phone for developments...or is this jsut no big deal to them?..and theyre gambling with what must be peanuts for them?

VERY QUICK - 20 Oct'03 - 09:40 - 396 of 2307
PaulKent it would be nice to get one up on the MM's for a change, that would teach them a lesson not to mess with the market.

if the MM havent got enough stock to sell then why are they allowed to accept buy orders.
something is not right somewhere

maxmillion - 20 Oct'03 - 09:49 - 404 of 2307
Since the MM`s are still flogging what THEY don`t have, perhaps someone would be interested in a Bright Red 2003 Lambourghini - going cheap ?

psps - 20 Oct'03 - 09:53 - 405 of 2307
these MUPPET MAKERS..............they know something or what ?

PaulKent - 20 Oct'03 - 09:53 - 406 of 2307
psps
the only explanation that has made any sense at all, is that Chiddingfol have somehow (not sure if legal or ethical) indicated to MMs that they might be happy NOT to recieve stock for the whole of thei 90% which they would own after the capital reorganisation and the d4e swap...so e.g...if mms have sold 300% of company, but then the current 100% of company will only own 10% of co after the d4e, then Chidding might be happy to only have 70% and to take money instead for the other 20%...which CAN now be issued to the people who bought BEFORE the reorganisation...and who will then own exactly the corrrect percentage; the fun begins IF for some reason the AGM is delayed, the cap reorganisation isnt voted thru( altho i wouldve thought thats a foregone conclusion as most recent buyers cant vote if theyr not on register)...but u never know, the AGM might have to be canceleed in view of the clear discrepancy which the companys brokers ARE aware of..i jsut dont know thelegal position, but it may be that they choose to play safe and defer things, which might then drop MMs right in it...and they MIGHT then be forced to raise the price to buy back stock that they have sold but dont have!..otherwise i have no idea what happens if they sell stock they dont have or cant then get!..not sure Ive ever known it happen before...

RBonnier - 20 Oct'03 - 09:54 - 407 of 2307

If the AGM is cancelled and, just supposing Chiddingford's decided to pull the plug, wouldn't the MM's be sitting pretty - selling stock they didnt have over and over.

VERY QUICK - 20 Oct'03 - 09:59 - 411 of 2307
Can anyone work out how many shares have been bought since last Tuesday??

VERY QUICK - 20 Oct'03 - 10:00 - 412 of 2307
I make it roughly 350 million with only 124 million in issue

knitcraft - 20 Oct'03 - 10:02 - 413 of 2307
Paul Kent.

What a load of crap.

You are an ignoramus.

Jonck - 20 Oct'03 - 10:04 - 414 of 2307
Would the MMs be allowed to do that if the plug was pulled? Surely you would still be entitles to your shares even if they had no value and of course they would not be able to supply. Have i missed a fundamental point here?

psps - 20 Oct'03 - 10:04 - 415 of 2307
knitcraft,
easy m8.
PaulKent is giving his view

PaulKent - 20 Oct'03 - 10:06 - 416 of 2307
uknighted..im not sure chidding could immeiately pull the plug...they msut have agreements re the debt and so RSV would have to default...and they have 200k of debt i think of which only 100k is convertible..so it wouldnt be in their interest im sure to pull the plug and jsut lose that...i wouldve thought that the value of this co is purely that its still listed and trading..NOT in liquidiation!...

rbonnier
i understnad why you think they MSUT have the stock, but theres more evidence to suggest they HAVENT than that they have...no Directors have sold, and we know for a fact that holdings now total way over 100%..!..i cant read it any other way thatn that they dont CURRENTLY have the stock, and MSUT be relying on Chidding....

Jonck - 20 Oct'03 - 10:07 - 417 of 2307
Knitcraft, why do you say he is being ignorant, I think a lot of us on here are novices, so please enlighten us with your experience and knowledge so we may learn something.

Jonck
If money was worthless I would give you cheques for as much as you wanted.
If a company has ceased trading you can't be issued shares. The Registrars wouldnt do it.
Write to the Mm and ask for your share certificate. "Sorry, the company no longer exists".
All IMHO

VERY QUICK - 20 Oct'03 - 10:10 - 421 of 2307
Well said PaulKent.

rescuer - 20 Oct'03 - 10:11 - 422 of 2307
Paul >> in a fast moving market, or a market where, buy's outweigh sells, the MM's will always go short, to fulfill orders, what is different about RVS is the volume which has been traded. The mm's 99 times out of a 100, will always be able to balance their books as they walk the prices up or down, however, in this case, the D4E is there only hope. Now lets say for whatever reason the AGM is suspended, the MM's (or should we just say EVO's), may find themselves in a positon in which they need to balance up, which we know they can't do, as the company has been oversold by about (give or take) 200%. So EVO's will need to raise the bid to attract the sellers in order to balance up. Now in monetary terms we're not talking a great deal, but what price for the retailers to sell up. You may even find some of the larger holders will get a call direct from there brokers, with an offer to sell.

It's not very often you'll find an market maker in a tight spot as we have here, as they never play risk, they only make markets, the facinating play, here on RVS, is that the MM's seem to be playing risk and they will probably get caught out. What is more interesting for me is if EVO's are aware of a D4E announcement today, then that, the way i interpret it is insider dealing, as knowone from outside the board of directors and the house broker, should be aware of any settled issues of a meeting which, a)hasn't yet taken place, b)which hasn't been voted on. It is possible to say that EVO's have done an advanced deal with Chaddingford on the basis that Chaddingfords will cover there short position, which i would then consider to be fair and part of the game, but any suggestion that the D4E is signed sealed and delivered BEFORE the meeting, is risky at the very least.

We had a AHT posters piss up in Warwickshire at the weekend and we all spoke at lenght about the excitement being gernerated on this thread and all whom attended wish everyone well.

Jonck - 20 Oct'03 - 10:11 - 423 of 2307
May I also repectfully suggest Knitcraft may be looking at RSV as a reverse take over to benifit himself (or his company getting listed). So Knitcraft are you a company hoping to get listed on the LSE and you have just seen this getting out of reach or am I way of the mark? No antagonism (cannot even spell it) intended.

VERY QUICK - 20 Oct'03 - 10:12 - 424 of 2307

VQ : All with ulterior motives I would care to believe ?

PaulKent - 20 Oct'03 - 10:18 - 430 of 2307
rescuer
agree totally...and the reason im in is i guess in the hope that the bid WILL have to go up to balance books...only thing Im not sure of is the vote re restructure...i suppose the mms could have known what votes were "committed" to that initially, but might not have expected there to be such a buying frenzy at end of last week..and thats what caught them playing risk rather than market making?..and obviously if the vote is passd thatn the conversion of debt is already certain re the terms of the 100k debt when chidding bought it i think?..so it might be that the vote today is all impt; plus, there may NOT actually be any deal between mms and chidding, (and in fact, if noone was expecting this to happen why WOULD they have struck a deal on that?).. so even if vote goes thru we might STILL have same issue?..worth being in jsut for the education/entertainment value...

PLUS ive got to meet knitcraft too !!!!...quelle bonus!

Jonck - 20 Oct'03 - 10:19 - 431 of 2307
Yep! Rescuer - you seem to be the sensible one in here and doing a good job. Rehrase that - one of the more sensible. Still digging a hole here ( trying not to knock everyone elses sinsibility).. Erm you are giving very good views and comments, thanks.

Thanks Jonck >> just wished i'd got a cash position to join in the fun, but as it stands i'm just a sideline spectator, with a portfolio of losers (bar one) at the mo

RBonnier - 20 Oct'03 - 10:30 - 433 of 2307
I can confirm that if this went bust no share certificates would be issued therefore Evostick must be selling this short because they know its going bust.If it doesnt go under then there will be fireworks but they must be confident to short 200,000,000 shares

Jonck - 20 Oct'03 - 10:31 - 434 of 2307
Side line spectators often see things impartially, so your opinions are highly valued.

Jonck - 20 Oct'03 - 10:35 - 435 of 2307
Not knowing much about how MMs work all sounds a bit immoral to me. Is it not like a shop selling you goods they need to order and then saying - sorry manufacturter has gone bust but I am not giving you anything back.

VERY QUICK - 20 Oct'03 - 10:37 - 436 of 2307
If it is going bust perhaps us as large shareholders should raise the cash lets say £5000 each to pay back the debt No dilution of shares this way and we safe the company and that would f*ck up the MM's plans somewot. Just a tought.

gonzo123 - 20 Oct'03 - 10:40 - 437 of 2307
For what it's worth i'm still trying to sit down after being shafted at CRI i wonder if the same won't happen here.

Well I think it is going bust shorting is seen as immoral however it is a tool used in the market thats just as effective as buying stock only the mms however could short a tiddler like this and they must have good reason to,mms dont give money away they are one of the greediest people you can imagine.

VERY QUICK - 20 Oct'03 - 10:45 - 442 of 2307

uknighted - 20 Oct'03 - 10:45 - 443 of 2307

The difference is that when you buy you do own the shares there and then.
All you don't have is the certificate.
The mm's have your money but as they didnt buy the "stock" who do they give it to. Not you thats for sure.

PaulKent - 20 Oct'03 - 10:46 - 444 of 2307

VQ >> the timescale was always against the retailer, however, if you can find a fairy godmother to do just that, then you've won, Thats if Chaddingfords accept the offer. I posted a similar post on Friday.

Good luck to us all.

londonmetro - 20 Oct'03 - 10:51 - 447 of 2307
If the MMs think it is going bust how would they know that?

I spoke with Gerald Gold on his mobile and the RNS from the directors given the other day said they knew of no reason for the share price movements.

This does not square with going imminently bust

All IMHO - still holding our 3.62% and sent through on Friday our voting papers for the AGM saying no to all proposals.

BEST OF LUCK EVERYONE!

I am just watching this from the sidelines and I must say, this is a fascinating set of events. Anyone know how long the AGM will last? 1 hour? Will be interesting to see what position the mm's take then.

Good luck to all the holders. Wish you well.

There is no way this is going belly up, it would not be in the best interest for Chiddingfold as they would not get their money at all. They would not be as stupid as to let this go bust. No money for them at all this way.

you can only buy 100,000 online now so not really worth youd need the bid to treble just to cover costs

londonmetro - 20 Oct'03 - 12:57 - 506 of 2307
Dont be scared into do anything until the full story is known.

PaulKent - 20 Oct'03 - 12:58 - 507 of 2307
even IF whole thing goes through and Chidd let mms have THEIR stock after cap reorg and loan conversion, then i reckon theres a hell of a case to complain to authorities, based on fact that an agreement to sell must have been struck for HUGE chunk of this company last week or earlier without any announcement being made...which would have had a great bearing on many peoples trades...how many people would actually have bought if a pre sale agreement between Chidding and mm had been announced to the market?...and for what part of the company..damn sight more than 3% im sure!

psps - 20 Oct'03 - 12:58 - 508 of 2307
did the shareholders have to take their own lunch

VERY QUICK - 20 Oct'03 - 12:58 - 509 of 2307
They want you to buy loads as Bid will soon read 0.150 and offer 0.170

mms often use "scare" tactics, playing with bid etc...get ready to have their full array of weapons played this afternoon if it doesnt go their way!

i would have thought some of our friends at the meeting would have kept us updated on whats happening

VERY QUICK - 20 Oct'03 - 13:00 - 513 of 2307
PaulKent if thats the case i think a phonecall to the FSA might be in order dont you think

londonmetro - 20 Oct'03 - 13:01 - 514 of 2307
He was meeting up with photo director just prior to the meeting to discuss tactics.
Have been in talks with him over the weekend.

If I hear anything I'll let you know.

psps - 20 Oct'03 - 13:01 - 515 of 2307
may be the shareholders have been LOCKED inside and their mobiles have been confiscated

inthepot - 20 Oct'03 - 13:01 - 516 of 2307
if it goes tits up theyre going to be on the phone to thier brokers before they let us know wouldn't you ?????

VERY QUICK - 20 Oct'03 - 13:02 - 517 of 2307
Paulkent as long as they use guns to shoot up the bid and offer i wont complain. Lol!

what's the worse that could happen? Directors resign and jmillskeel takes over?

PaulKent - 20 Oct'03 - 13:08 - 527 of 2307
pointless selling if it all goes through...and anyway..there would then be a fairly valuable shell with minimal debt..Chidding wouldnt accept equity for the debt if they didnt think theyd make out of it...albeit that we might not get ALL money back but who knows?!

VERY QUICK - 20 Oct'03 - 13:08 - 528 of 2307

Jonck - 20 Oct'03 - 13:30 - 548 of 2307
Do you think we will get a mention in the Greystone column? Might even get a bottle of champers for having such an amusing thread.

londonmetro - 20 Oct'03 - 13:33 - 549 of 2307
This is great news on first sight.

By my calculations even after the reorganisation they are way down on shares sold.

Lets hold for the ride.

matto - 20 Oct'03 - 13:35 - 550 of 2307
No news on D4E then, which is good news.

Maybe a chance to stop that then.

It may be worth considering getting certs. for these so that holders have full voting rights.

PaulKent - 20 Oct'03 - 13:35 - 551 of 2307
cap reorg gone thru..but no mention of the loan conversion..maybe that doesnt happen yet and so the mms will HAVE to fulfil all ordrs placed?.....now i wonder why that price is marching up!!!!!??...lets hope nobody says YES to selling AT ALL!!!!!!..this might jsut be excruciatingly good fun!!!

PaulKent - 20 Oct'03 - 13:36 - 552 of 2307
oh, and get ready for the move up to be followed by a tree shake at some stage before they have to show trades which HAVE gone through..if i were a mm Id try it to try and spook us into thinking it had peaked and was on teh way down again...

Agincourt - 20 Oct'03 - 13:38 - 553 of 2307
At the AGM held earlier today, all resolutions including, inter alia, a capital
reorganisation and a change of name to Azure Holdings plc, were duly passed.

The dealings in the 1,242,250 new ordinary shares of 1p each, resulting from the
capital reorganisation, are expected to commence trading on 21st October, 2003

Unless I am wrong issueing 1,242,250 shares is not much of a dilution.

If I am right the MMs have a real problem now as they have to find over 1m shares. - AND they can only come from us.

How long do they have to come up with the shares they have sold.

The price has gone up to .06 .011 in the last few minutes

inthepot - 20 Oct'03 - 13:38 - 554 of 2307
guys ronnie pearl might of struck a deal with evo ??? if he has big shit as directors said new no reason for share movement ????

I am staying on board for the roller coaster ride of a lifetime, you don't buy a ticket and get off half way.

londonmetro - 20 Oct'03 - 13:39 - 557 of 2307
If you were a neutral you have to say it looks good.

New blood in the company and well placed to go forward - plus no sign of going bust as mentioned on here before.

I'm going to try Jmill on his mobile

tonyx - 20 Oct'03 - 13:41 - 558 of 2307
Good luck all-remember to ask for your certificates!

PaulKent - 20 Oct'03 - 13:41 - 559 of 2307
agincourt
i think that menas the 1.24million shares REPLACE the 124 million shares currently out there..and by the end of today we will only have 1/100the of what we currently have...but, the mms will STILL have to deliver to you the same percentage AFTER the cap reorg...so if you bought a million now they will have to give you 10000 later in the week...i THINK...altho this is becoming complex!!!

Monomono - 20 Oct'03 - 13:42 - 560 of 2307
Isn't the issue of the new shares simply the consolidation of the old ones? Ie: the 100-1 share swap?

PaulKent - 20 Oct'03 - 13:44 - 561 of 2307
i see you can now sell at 0.8 online...presumably one mm is leading the bid up??..wonder who?!!!..anyone got level 2??

matto - 20 Oct'03 - 13:44 - 562 of 2307
Agincourt - No dilution (as yet). The existing 124 million shares are being replaced by 1.24 million shares worth 100 times as much (in theory).

matto - 20 Oct'03 - 13:45 - 563 of 2307
Does anyone know whether there was due to be a AGM and EGM today or just AGM?

tonyhicken - 20 Oct'03 - 13:45 - 564 of 2307

PaulKent - 20 Oct'03 - 13:50 - 570 of 2307
all those sales were people running scared BEFORE the AGM announcment...thts prob why price dipped...SINCE the announcment price is up...and someone will need to get hold of some of these before days out methinks!

PaulKent - 20 Oct'03 - 13:52 - 571 of 2307
in last five mins, the price is up and the amount you can buy online has HALVED!!!...looks like its starting!!

JAN8MM - 20 Oct'03 - 13:54 - 572 of 2307
YUP, it's going to fly.. bastards chopped me down time for some recovery play...

PaulKent - 20 Oct'03 - 13:54 - 573 of 2307
and frankly, i see no need to sell at all at this price...if someone is going to be despearate for stock soon, then they will pay whatever they have to...

londonmetro - 20 Oct'03 - 13:55 - 574 of 2307
just spoken to Jmill - he's driving home now.I'll have a longer talk with him tonight.
They were not able to stop the motions getting passed and were not allowed to talk.They had to sit at the back of the meeting.
However there were holders there totalling 34% and they have all discussed future tactics which I'll let him tell you about on here later if he wants to.

For what its worth I'm holding as it looks like it could be a good ride.

PaulKent - 20 Oct'03 - 13:55 - 575 of 2307
and dont forget they might try tree shake as well...

VERY QUICK - 20 Oct'03 - 13:56 - 576 of 2307
I was right all the time good luck guys hope you make loads of money.

londonmetro - 20 Oct'03 - 13:57 - 577 of 2307
From past experience companies priced as bust when they rise from the ashes tend to make fantastic rewards.
All IMHO

VERY QUICK - 20 Oct'03 - 13:57 - 578 of 2307
I'm glad i started off this buying frenzy last tuesday.

The Divine Comedy - 20 Oct'03 - 13:57 - 579 of 2307
iii online is 50,000 max buy, 350,000 max sell.. Live prices are accurate, but no streaming. Showing 7 / 11.

PaulKent - 20 Oct'03 - 13:58 - 580 of 2307
"were not allowed to talk"!!....unbelievable...if they could prove they owned shares and were not even allowed to say anything at an AGM of a company they part owned...when the Directors are effectively THEIR employees..!..disgusting...

londonmetro - 20 Oct'03 - 13:59 - 581 of 2307
VQ - I'll let Jmill talk to you.But with the 34% at the meeting.Our 3.62% and your 8,000,000 makes for a very healthy amount.

Kael - 20 Oct'03 - 13:59 - 582 of 2307
wha?

Jonck - 20 Oct'03 - 13:59 - 583 of 2307
Thanks London. edit - for reporting back earlier - sounded sarcastic after last couple of posts appeared so thought I would clarify my gradutude to you.

PaulKent - 20 Oct'03 - 14:01 - 584 of 2307
lmetro
that would get you up to around 45%!

londonmetro - 20 Oct'03 - 14:04 - 585 of 2307
That could make things interesting!

Even though they could not speak the fact that they were there and all the faxes and e-mails had been sent showed that people were watching.I find it tends to focus the mind.

Well done everyone and if you are in hope we all make loads!

rescuer - 20 Oct'03 - 14:05 - 586 of 2307
will be glued to this thread tonight, when Jmill reports back. Just back in from a meeting and on reading thro the RNS just quickly, looks like you guys have pulled this off. Still a long way to go yet, but to all those that got in last week WELL DONE, i hope it gets up to 1p/2p/3p for you all, you bloody deserve it.

mattheworchard - 20 Oct'03 - 14:05 - 587 of 2307
so what happened to the 124 million shares at 1p and capital reorganisation.

Is it all off, and now we can return to a price of 3p per share.

Looks like a 30 bagger

Kael - 20 Oct'03 - 14:07 - 588 of 2307
Hold on im confused all resos were passed so that means our shares going to be worth how much each?

tonyperks - 20 Oct'03 - 14:08 - 589 of 2307
I'm adding ... just purchased a few more to make my holding up to a round number !!!

clocktower - 20 Oct'03 - 14:10 - 590 of 2307
Now that has all been passed I take it you will be calling for another meeting.

At present what % are you left with?

Jonck - 20 Oct'03 - 14:11 - 591 of 2307
I now have 500,000 shares - wow, half a million - fingers crossed as I have just doubled my holding.

VERY QUICK - 20 Oct'03 - 14:12 - 592 of 2307
londonmetro: just sent e-mail to Gerald Gold and Bernard Sumner to register my 8 million holding and asked for an RNS statement to be put out as soon as possible.

matto - 20 Oct'03 - 14:12 - 593 of 2307
Yes capital reorganisation was passed but there is no hint of any dilution yet.

You will find tomorrow morning that you have only 1% of the shares you had today but they will hopefully be worth 100 times as much. Oh and they won't be called Room Service any more, they'll be called Azure holdings.

tonyperks - 20 Oct'03 - 14:13 - 594 of 2307
VeryQuick and LondonMetro ... please can you contact me ... tonyperks @ hotmail . com

VERY QUICK - 20 Oct'03 - 14:13 - 595 of 2307
I'm glad that some of you are buying more and the large holders are still here. Hope we can see 1p by the end of the month.

PaulKent - 20 Oct'03 - 14:14 - 596 of 2307
kael
well, there are currently (apparrently!!) 124million shares, priced at say 0.1p..which gives a mkt cap of £124000. So, if there are to now only be 1.24 million shares, then the share price would need to be 10p to give the same mkt cap...now, IF the deal with Chiddingfold HAS been approved, then they can convert their £100000 debt into shares at 1p a share, i THINK!(any other views welcomed on this??)..which would give THEM 10 million shares, which would therefore mean that the share price would only need to be around 1p for the same mkt cap as today...altho of course as the co would have less debt you could argue it would/should be at least 2p...
HOwever, as the Chiddingford shares have clearly NOT been approved and issued yet (or else it would have had to be annoounced today as well i presume?..)..the conversion of their debt to shares has to be approved by shareholders (as stated in Final REsults)...so IF shareholders NOW are mainly peopel on here..its unlikely that they will get approval...so, the feared dilution need not necessarily happen..and this could suddenly become a different ball game...and much more valuable than maybe was thought...(see matorchards postings re its value as a shell)...so i guess it all boils down to when the vote on Chiddingford loan conversion takes place and who votes for or against it?..

PaulKent - 20 Oct'03 - 14:16 - 597 of 2307
and lo and behold..little tree shake just when they will now buy more off you than they will sell you online....ha

mickiekindl - 20 Oct'03 - 14:16 - 598 of 2307
Paul, when will we find out about this conversion

PaulKent - 20 Oct'03 - 14:17 - 599 of 2307
did someone on here have jonathans mobile?..could you call him and ask what was said re the chiddinford laon conversion timetable??

londonmetro - 20 Oct'03 - 14:27 - 607 of 2307
Tonyperks - have e-mailed you address.

PaulKent - 20 Oct'03 - 14:28 - 608 of 2307
vq
they were done before, or during the AGM, maybe it was MAggie panicking a bit and reducing exposure???

greenchair - 20 Oct'03 - 14:29 - 609 of 2307
I have Just! Received e-mail from Mr Simon Clements saying that my e-mail sent last night has now been forwarded to the Company.
It would have been nice to have been notified this morning.

Anyone else?

VERY QUICK - 20 Oct'03 - 14:31 - 610 of 2307
PaulKent. I think its Margaret not Maggie.

mickiekindl - 20 Oct'03 - 14:32 - 611 of 2307
I sent an email to Simon before the AGM this morning and received an email confirming this has been sent after the AGM, pointless, lets hope they received our emails on time.

londonmetro - 20 Oct'03 - 14:36 - 614 of 2307
all the buys done in the last hour will be delayed.they will all follow.

Reference the e-mails.At least they got them and knew you were watching and listening.Can make a big difference.
With 34% of the shareholding at the back of the room and all
those e-mails it helped.
well done all.

greenchair - 20 Oct'03 - 14:36 - 615 of 2307
wouldnt there be an RNS if the sale was from Margaret?

Just a thought

tonyperks - 20 Oct'03 - 14:39 - 616 of 2307
RNS ... FAME AT LAST !!!

So 1,260,000 was the top up to the 'round number' then? :) Heh hee.

knitcraft - 20 Oct'03 - 14:45 - 623 of 2307
This co. will be worth a fraction of todays cap. after split.You guys are being taken for real mugs.If the price is 1p I would be surprised, 3p as mentioned above, you`ve got to be joking. You are all living in a dream world.

PS I hold no shares,don`t want a shell and genuinely would prefer nono of you to lose money but all but the sharpest of you will.

PaulKent - 20 Oct'03 - 14:46 - 624 of 2307
which mm do you work for knitcraft?

PaulKent - 20 Oct'03 - 14:47 - 625 of 2307
..and its anot a share split by the way!!!..its a consolidation!...and the price will almost DEFINITELY be 1p or more...that much is almost certain post consolidation!!!!!!!!

tonyperks - 20 Oct'03 - 14:47 - 626 of 2307
Sounds a good number ... five million ... what do you think Mr Bigglesworth

Of course it will only be 50,000 by tomorrow ... but hey, what the hell !!!

clocktower - 20 Oct'03 - 14:47 - 627 of 2307
Are you all facing Meca and still on your matts?

Must be a great feeling to own five million shares! I was dead chuffed with 111,111 :) You should get some business cards printed up!

T Perks
Major Shareholder

I don't care what happens with this share. I speculatively threw a few pennies at it Friday morning, and it's been well worth it for the fun I've had reading this thread today :)

Saddam Bin Laden - 20 Oct'03 - 14:50 - 630 of 2307
I have either made a big booboo, or got balls of steal. With a bloody 45% spread I just bought over 1 million shares. Pls. can someone encourage me I am not insane.

Regards Da Ugly One.

Agincourt - 20 Oct'03 - 14:51 - 631 of 2307
I got 1m shares

and its been worth every penny

even if i end up with nothing

mattheworchard - 20 Oct'03 - 14:52 - 632 of 2307
I think I would rather be in this share than OND.

Those buying OND this morning at 50p must be mad. Why would a company trading at 2p 3 months ago suddenly be valued at 25x the value. The company reversing into OND will require more shares and this will dilute existing shareholders holdings. There will be a mad stampede for the door when trading resumes.

ALl looking good for RSV though!!, is the consolidation effective from tomorrow?

dont worry, you wont have 1 million for very long so youll be able to sleep easier!

and i cant understand where the mms think their stock is coming from...8mill sold today versus 12million bought so far...(13mill if you add in saddam!)...so thats another 5million they got to find...which is aNOTHER 5% of company nearly!!!!!...so many people own this company its likely to turn into a shareholder timeshare arrangment i reckon...

You obviously know nothing you idiot. All your reasoning is flawed.Why pay £10 for something which is worthless, at best.You wouldn`t but because its ONLY .1p to buy, all of a sudden it must be worth getting in on but instead of buying 500 shares lets buy 5million.
Shut up if I were you and at least let others think for themselves instead of leading them blindly down an alley with a big disaster ahead

if you read back through my postings you will see EXACTLY my thoughts on this, and im happy to have you explain in detail the flaws as u see them...but dont jsut say something with no back up explanation..its pointless and closer to name calling in the playground than a reasoned debate...if youwant to discuss specific points, as others have done and made good arguments, then fine...please go ahead...??

rescuer - 20 Oct'03 - 15:00 - 640 of 2307
just asking you guys for some direction here, reading back thro, someone suggested that a consolidation of 100-1, surley that should put the price at 10p not 1p. If it is 1p then that would indicate dilution.

bigjohn75 - 20 Oct'03 - 15:00 - 641 of 2307
Oh Dear,
Someone just sold 625 shares.

mattheworchard - 20 Oct'03 - 15:01 - 642 of 2307

FOr this you get a company worth 20p (aim listing) and £3 tax losses per share to potential takeover company.

This company is crap

PaulKent - 20 Oct'03 - 15:02 - 644 of 2307
rescuer
the diluton comes IF the chiddingford debt is converted into equity..which would be another 10million shares , so YES that would be dilution..but we can only presume that HASNT been voted through yet as RNS made no mention...the results statement said the cap reorganisation was "first step" towards the chiddingford debt vote...so if by the time the chiddingford debt vote occurs, the majority of shareholders do not want it to go through then the dilution WOULDNT occur...
the short term pressing issue to me seems to be that mms appear to have sold more shares than exist!..which might lead them to scramble to cover their position...

Knitcraft - we are NOT all blindly following and being led down the garden path. Most of us know full too well what we are doing. As far as the risk goes I get the impression we are all in at appropriate levels for our invested funds and our experience. What ever it is I can lose on this share I can make on another. My philosophy was to invest in this my profits from other shares recently invested in coming up trumphs. I dare say every other investor in RSV is the same and has balanced the risk.
Most important thing is not to invest what you cannot afford to lose. If anyone is in this and cannot afford to lose then they should think hard about the risk.
PLEASE Knitcraft, do not imply we are stupid - we are far from it. If you have any constructive comments then please feel free to air them but do not insult our individual and collective intelligence.

Dusseldorf - 20 Oct'03 - 15:11 - 654 of 2307
In my opinion the shares will be consolidated to around 1p, so it will then be valued purely as a shell, then a company will be reversed into it via issue of shares at 1p. The true value of the company is in its chairman and the quality of 'aquisition' found. May take months for real movement - and may see even less value in portfolio tomorrow, but those who hold, will win.

A companies worth does not always have to be left to the Directors - there is noting to stop shareholders proposing ideas for moving forward as well. As we will collectively have a major stake we should not throw this opportunity away to have an influence om the future of RSV.

Knitcraft - we are all grown ups and can invest where we like.
If you are so down on this share - fine.Go and post on an BB of a share that you like.
A friend of mine has lost in excess of £70,000 with equitable life.
With that sum he would virtually own this company outright.

Trust me he would rather have had his £70,000 in RSV than down the drain.

We're all having a ball (not of wool) and enjoying every minute. I hope like me all the other investors can afford to lose what they have invested if the worse comes to worse. It appears in your case that you can't afford to invest.

greenchair - 20 Oct'03 - 15:43 - 668 of 2307
Let me try and consolidate hypothetically.

I own a number of shares in a company that has a debt of $200,000

My 1% is = to a debt of $2000

If I and my 99% other shareholders decide to find the cash to cover that debt I would then own a 1% stake in a company who’s debt is $0 and is listed on the NYSE.

Now my question is how much would this company be worth to someone else?

Just a thought.

Tried to compose a reply, but not easy to condense what has happened since late last week. Maybe someone else can be more articulate with words to condense it but we are all happy investors despite on paper sitting at a loss. (well most of us anyway!) You really need to read the last few days posts and certainly if you are thinking of investing in RSV I recommend you read the picture for yourself.

By when do the MMs have to come up with the shares they have sold ?

londonmetro - 20 Oct'03 - 16:31 - 695 of 2307
If you were an MM and had sold millions of shares at say 0.08 and above.
To fill the orders you would want to buy the shares at less than that.
thats why the selling is low.They will probably get as many as they can this way.

With the restructure do you still think it is worth going in?

Gantenbrink - 20 Oct'03 - 16:56 - 710 of 2307
At the AGM a number of the posters from this site were initially refused entry because the registrars, despite having received faxes of our holdings from our nominees, said that they legally required originals.

Eventually we were allowed in but could not vote.

I for one am taking issue with the Halifax/ iii who had assured me that I would be entitled to vote. They tell me they are investigating.

Meantime I believe that once the dust has settled and everybody has proof of share ownership there may be a call for an informal meeting with the company to discuss it's future.

We were told that an investigation is underway to establish what has gone on with the extreme share trading over the last week or so. Because of the rather fraught nature of the prelim to the meeting this morning I never found out who was investigating. Perhaps if someone here knows they could let us know - beyond that has anyone spoken to the FSA or the like? I a fairly new to this but it does all seem a bit irregular.

Watch out for jmillskeels post. He is probably still travelling after his wasted journey for he like me could not vote.

uknighted - 20 Oct'03 - 17:02 - 711 of 2307

Thanks for attending.
What was said about Chiddingford, if anything?

matto - 20 Oct'03 - 17:02 - 712 of 2307
Gantenbrink - was anything mentioned about the D4E and Chiddingfold?

Gantenbrink - 20 Oct'03 - 17:06 - 713 of 2307
A further thought -

It is interesting that there are still a large number of buys going through. Some just in for the ride others probably gambling on the reverse takeover theory.

If the capital re-organisation now goes through surely the MMs will have to sort out the trades before the new shares are issued. If enough people hold or keep buying will this not put them under even more pressure to raise the price because based on the last weeks trading there must be a lot of settlement dates coming up.

I have to go back to my proper job tomorrow but it has been an interesting day and I suspect we may see more exciting times ahead.

Good luck to all

Gantenbrink - 20 Oct'03 - 17:13 - 714 of 2307
I think that the AGM news is now posted in fact I'll copy it below from another site. You will see that all motions were not surprisingly passed as requested including the capital re-organisation. You will note that the new shares will commence trading from tomorrow!

An undisclosed representative asked the board to confirm when his loan to the company might be repaid although there was no mention of whether he was Chiddingford. The board said they would look to repay all debts but could not say when.:-

We seem to have a solicitor and a Chartered Accountant for Directors.
The latter's pedigree does not look promising but then Liquidations can happen to the best of us (but not me in case you were wondering).

PaulKent - 20 Oct'03 - 17:34 - 723 of 2307
ive jsut been through and added up what the Directors and their team seem to hold and its about 45% or more...so with the BB gang owning more than 50%, it seems that nobody else is involved!!..excpet of course we know that too many shares have been sold!...i think that everyone should ensure they get themselves on teh co register pronto, in time for the vote on converting the chiddingford debt..or before any more votes come up!...
jsut as a matter of interest..it strikes me that Chiddingford are technically about to get 90% of a company which is (at current prices) only worth £100,000, ie, theyll get £90000 or therabouts...and that they paid £100000 for that! (as in that was the loan that they made to RSV to pay off debts....now, i wonder what Chiddingford knew which made them do that??!....and does anyone actually know WHO owns Chiddingford or has an interest?..would our Directors/Board members have to tell us if THEY did??..also, how much did Chiddingford pay for the debt they took off Hanover?...and how will they get that back???..

If you would deal at .06p - 1.1p, would you be happy to deal at 60p - 110p?

Your answer is NO isit not ? That however is what you clowns have all been doing.

Tomorrow the mm`s will get all the stock they need at prices well below what they sold them at to balance their books.

THEY KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING ----- YOU CLOWNS DONT!!!!!!!!!

..and ta for the tip on YOO board last week...as i told you them i originally wasnt going to get invovled as didnt like the dilution the loan would cause..but its been irresistible since!..as much fun as CRI!..maybe this time the ending will be as much fun as the journey!

PaulKent - 20 Oct'03 - 17:59 - 735 of 2307
i think you are meant to me me, tho i dont know the specific rules but it seems that anyone who buys more than 3% of a company is meant to do that..and i think the issue re voting is that you MUST be on the register of shareholders...which presumably means you have to get a cert, unless your nominee account hodler can sort it without one.
i reckon the Registrar for this company is about to face an extrememly interesting few days!!!!!..i presume sooner or later someone is going to have to whistle blow on this one and i presume kick it to the FSA?..

and if thats the last of the trades today...(which it might not be i suppose) it looks like 10million sells and 20mill of buys..which effectively means that yet ANOTHER 10 million (8%) of the company has been sold today!

Only angle is I hate to see mugs following idiots into the mire.

I am certainly not a market maker but was a broker for 31 years before retirement.You really are behind the door with this one as you will see in the morning. Your apology for doubting me can wait until then.

If only you knew it,but I have explained my thoughts based on facts unlike your good self who bases everything on supposition and unfounded hope.

see earlier post for detail.I might be the odd point out but .3p ( NOT 3p ) in the new consolidated form seems about right.

Jonck - 20 Oct'03 - 18:41 - 751 of 2307
Knitcraft, you have not explained your thoughts, you have stated them. Everyone else has put up information or reasoning to support their views but you have failed to. Stating you were a broker does not explain your conclusions and I would have thought if you had been a broker for 31 years you would have been able to explain your arguments fully and justified your comments.

Jonck - 20 Oct'03 - 18:42 - 752 of 2307

knitcraft - 20 Oct'03 - 18:50 - 754 of 2307
As I have said before all you need to know is that market makers NEVER sell shares they havent got unless they are 100% sure of buying them back at a lower price. That is the ONLY fact you need to work out what is going on here.You are putting up all kinds of reasons for the shares to be worth up to 10p ish after the consolidation but that just wont happen.I may be a bit pessimistic with my guess of .3p but it will sure be way below the 6 or 7p you all need to make a profit or break even. . Know you all dont want to accept that is the case but in the light of no further info it is.

Jonck - 20 Oct'03 - 18:52 - 755 of 2307
At theh end of the say Knit knit may be right in his conclusions, but lest ne honest here. If we were to visit every thread in a failing, floundering company in severe debt and cash flow problems and announce "the company was dead" Chances are we would be right and statistically as we were above 50% acurate would be regarded as knowlegeable individuals. Erm put it this way. Lets everyday of the year forcast tomorrow will rain. 78% of the time we would be right because it rains 78% of the time on average somewhere in the UK.

Right so after the reorganisation there will be 1,242,250 shares if as Knitcraft says they open up at 0.3p that will give a market cap of £3726.75p. Anyone fancy taking the company over tomorrow?

please go back and read everypost ive done..i havent "predicted" anything, ive answered questions and made points about what might happen; when i firt looked at this share (ask me me for confirmation) i wasnt keen coz the dilution caused by the loan conversion meant you would be buying something one day that would fall in value by 90% the next; the one thing that changed my view was when it became known that the members on this board stood a chance of having control...AND when it became obvious last week that more shares had been sold (witness the RNS's) than existed. This to me suggested two possibilities, along with the existence of the original one (which Ive always viewed as the "acceptable" risk)...first, the members of this Board MAY have been able (and might still) to prevent the conversion of the loan to shares..secondly, there MAY be a problem for the MMs IF they cannot get the stock theyve soldi have no idea how this will end up, ive never pretended i did..i dont think many people do..most of us are here because there IS a chance (nothings guaranteed)it will work in our favour..and also/mainly because this is actually quite an enjoyable episode!..
I think most of us have posted quite sensible, reasoned posts pointing things out, making suppositions about possible scenarios...sorry if our views or expressing them doesnt fit neatly with your agenda, which frankly doesnt make a lot of sense as your intital postings were mainly abusive and otherwise empty, and NOT designed to "help"!

With so many buys where are the MMs to get their stock from.
The last few days there appear to have been more shares sold (net) than are in existance. If you can answer this one logically I may even change my opinion.

Knit Knit Of course you might be correct, but then may so the rest of us. We are not blind. But you are missing the whole point of why we are all enthusiastic , I am sorry but it is really you who are blind to whats driving this. Ask anyone who holds if they think they are right to keep holding and you will get an enthusiastic yes. Ask them if they think they are stupid to hold - same answer Yes. So why are we holding, thats the bit you fail to see but the rest of us do see and are part of.

you werent asked to go away originally, only to post specific facts (not sure youahve yet?) and to not be abusive
your estimate of 0.3p (or what whould be 1p following your logic) is presumably (altho you have failed to spell it out) simply based on the obvious fact that a dilution of 90% would see the price drop by 90%, after it will have gone up by 100 after the consolidation...in simple terms..the price today is lets say 0.1p...after consolidation (to retain the same mkt cap) it would go to 10p, then with 90% dilution would drop to about 1p..i presume thats your point?..
obviously if nothing else changed this would happen..however, you ignore..WHEN is the vote for the loan conversion?...has the debt actually been transferred to Chiddingfold yet? (the statement in results does NOT make this clear) and have you considered the increase in mkt value of the shell when £100k of debt is removed (which would be the case if the conversion goes through?..how have youfactored that in...?)...what happens IF the loan conversion doesnt go through?..and most important, and current, what will happen if the MMs CANNOT deliver all the stock they have sold...its all well and good you saying that of course they will...but where will they get it?..if no one on this BB sells, and neither do the Directors and their associated holders?

psps - 20 Oct'03 - 19:20 - 772 of 2307

Fax first thing tomorrow morning to Steve Clements at the brokers on
0207 628 4473 stating the number of shares you hold and the percentage.

Between about 6 of us we own over 50% of the company and if you are on the register if anything needs to be voted on you will be in a position to do so.

Any queries come back to us.

Can someone devise an orderly and accurate way of arriving at the total "ADVFN" holding.

Gantenbrink - 20 Oct'03 - 19:38 - 789 of 2307
Lots of banter - not much progress.

As I mentioned earlier - combine the few of us who were at the meeting and not allowed to vote because we had nominee accounts with the directors and registered shareholders and you are already seem to have around 100%.

If you were not one of the above then you are what makes this interesting. It would be good to know just what percentages of oversells the MMs are in for.

I suspect JMillsKeel is still wading through this lot but perhaps at sometime it would be useful to gather the info - for the early table of interest was very informative and I suspect a number of others could now be added to it. From what I can see there only appeared to be one big seller today.

I can see that the current value of the company is negligible but is that the point. If as would seem to be the case the shares are oversold by 2 or 3 times then what will happen come settlement dates if everyone has held on?

Agincourt - 20 Oct'03 - 19:39 - 790 of 2307
What are the rules about settlement dates ?

How long have the MMs got before they have to account for all this ?

key thing is to fdind out re the debt issue..altho i THINK i heard someone say there was someone at the meeting asking when he would be paid..?..that sounds to me like Chiddingfold HAVENT coughed up the £100k yet to pay off the creditors...which means the dilution WONt take place without further shareholder vote..which judging by the 54% jmill quoted means it WONT happen !!!!...which THEN gets REAL interesting..!!!..right..off to Pub now!

I am John Webster . I am just trying to be helpful and assemble some facts from what seems a chaotic situation at the moment.

We need to know how many votes there are at ADVFN. With luck I might be able to find out.

Thats a very big number but multiply it by, say, .3p and then its a very small number.

Sojourno - 20 Oct'03 - 21:00 - 832 of 2307
I'm not 100% certain of the data (I've had glitches before) but Proquote is showing an after hours mid-price change to 2.13p. Doesn't show anywhere else, but double-checks ok on restart.

Azure or any other colour, but whatever forget any logic and by me any number of millions on offer.

To be serious I bet the bid will only be for a few hundred shares.

If anyone has emailed as well as posting in here under a completly different screen name, can I suggest they let Agin know by email. Would that help Agincourt?

Glad the team have given you a little job to do.It will hopefully take your mind off me.

Must be about time for your cocoa and rich tea by now . You don`t want to be up late for all the exitement in the morning do you ?

Off to bed you go little chap. As a special treat you can take your calculator with you but no playing with it under the blankets. ( no you naughty boy I mean with the calculator)

I get the feeling knitcraf is here for a reason. Not sure what but it is more than what he ses he is here for i'm sure. Why has he been here all day, very very odd

Jonck - 20 Oct'03 - 22:03 - 861 of 2307
Knitcraft - did you not predict doom and gloom with DUR , end of 2002 if I recall correctly, and every one would lose out excepot MMs. They are still trading along nicely. Gosh, I knew I had come across you before and it just struck me just now.

knitcraft - 20 Oct'03 - 22:05 - 862 of 2307
I`m sure we would get along famously in a different world. Where are you planning to holiday next, could we spend a week in Bognor and if we both bring our notebooks, a pencil and calculators we could perhaps draw up a plan to operate a similar raid on Astra Zeneca.It shouldn`t be beyond us with the power of this thread behind us. Onwards and upwards eh!

What do you reckon? I propose you to buy the first million..... seconded....passed unanimously.

jonck is not my father if that was your duplication. My father doesn't have email hence adding him to mine (nor was he in the library with the candlestick!)

Re:your posting 820
I ask a question (posting 768) and you claim to have answered it on your posting 754.
Having read 754 it still does not answer the simple question posed in 768.
Why? Because you can't.

me me

Spot on, right wasn`t I ? You look at first price. It was under 90p bid.They dropped from memory to 50p ish and took a long long time to get over 150p.The big difference was THEY HAD A BUSINESS.In any case all my remarks have been made with waking you all to the fact that these will not come back tomorrow at one hundred times todays price as most comments on here seem to assume.If they did the price would be 6p bid 10p offer. That will not happen. Why don`t you all grasp that fact.The best IMHO will be 2p bid 4poffer approx, closer probably but around that figure.

Me me did you get caught with Duc? hope not but remember they did have a viable business,

Jonck - 20 Oct'03 - 22:22 - 871 of 2307

Oldish news I know but from the Yahoo front page:

Room Service Group , the delivery services company, said that resolutions for a capital reorganisation of the group and a change of name to Azure Holdings were passed.

Separately Room Service added that founder and managing director Ronnie Pearl has resigned from the company, while Nicolas David Antony Greenstone has been appointed non-executive director and chairman.

By the way guys and gals - great reading. Everything crossed for you for tomorrow and beyond.

Confession time, and apologies for any offence caused.

My input started yesterday just to add a contrarian view.

I looked at the thread with a view to buying in.

Didn`t like what I saw and posted as such.This brought argument and a little abuse and never having done it before decided to try and stir up a good argument.I happen to believe the MM`s have and nearly always have the upper hand and these shares will end up well below todays equivalent price.NOW I sincerely hope they don`t, truly, but whatever I say now will make no difference. Before 4.30 my comments may have stopped someone buying.This surely is the reverse of putting a message extolling the virtues of a share as many on here did.

Like all on here I don`t know what the price will be, Ican only guess on facts known, 2p-4p is my guess, not more certainly but possibly less.

Anyway sincere regards and genuine good luck to all on board,it`s at least allowed me to wind up a thread a little for the first and probably last time.I`m really too nice a GUY yes GUY for this kind of thing .Look after my own shares only from now on.

i wonder if theyll somehow contrive to show only sells initially when it does start, to try and scare people into selling?...Id prob try that first if iwas them, rather than come straight out and pay up...

my broker has told me that these will not be tradeable today!...presumably to allow time for Registrar to inform all shareholders and nominee accounts of the consolidation..wonder if the Registrar will notice that hes having to tell a totla number of people holding substantially more than 100% of the company!!...presume hell apply to suspend shares if he does.?.oooh

If the register only consists of those with share certificates then he may not know how many are actually sold by MMs. I expect they would just issue a statement to all the brokers involved without knowing numbers.

The Divine Comedy - 21 Oct'03 - 08:35 - 958 of 2307
I feel sorry for a few long term holders who've added this stock, and forgotten about it - not following the story as it's unfolded over the last couple of days. Imagine if you just per-chance logged on to your portfolio this morning and saw the prices.. Heh hee.. You'd need to cash in , to get the coffee cleaned off your monitor.

mickiekindl - 21 Oct'03 - 08:36 - 959 of 2307
So the shares they are up 7000% - which i guess is every 100 shares you have they give you one. Unless we have all made millions

Agincourt - 21 Oct'03 - 08:36 - 960 of 2307
Surely even the nominee companies holdings will be on the register.

Agincourt - 21 Oct'03 - 08:37 - 961 of 2307
The share register must record all holdings. The nominees are not in any different position with regard to the company.

hugeportfolio - 21 Oct'03 - 08:41 - 962 of 2307

You are correct Agin. Bit worrying really but no more than yesterdays worries.

What's the worry ?

Jonck - 21 Oct'03 - 08:44 - 966 of 2307
By the way, I have just noticed this is the busiest thread so far this morning.

PaulKent - 21 Oct'03 - 08:44 - 967 of 2307
almost on a completley different tack..and getting back to the possible "true" value of a shell...i was talking last night to someone who was considering how big he had to make his business to float...he reckons its currently worth a million or two; we worked out that for his business a market P/E of betwen 10 and 20 is common...and that he could easily (ie if he didnt overpay himself so much!) make profits of around £400000; which would give him a possible floated value of nearer £5million...he got all excited but then worried about the costs of a float...so i suggested he could jsut reverse into a shell for eg £100000. As you can imagine the thought to him of spending £100,000 to be worth so if he DIDNT have to even cough up the £100000, but jsut gave away say 10% of the new company to existing shareholders of the shell. then at no cost hes become worth £4.5million...which would mean the shell shareholders would be worth £500000 and not £100000.

Jonck - 21 Oct'03 - 08:45 - 968 of 2307

i shall send them an eamil asking why they sold my holding .
anyone with comdirect has the same thing happened to them ?

Stoorie - 21 Oct'03 - 09:07 - 980 of 2307
Morning all, not had any input into this thread but what enjoyment I have taken from following it! I did hold 300K in a nominee account with comdirect however I have just checked it and they are no longer in my portfolio, I have checked my dealing history and the buy/sell column says UNKNOWN but I now have my original investment back in cash minus the commission fee. Can anyone enlighten me as to what has happened as I was wanting to hold these and did not give anyone any instructions to sell them?

Stoorie - 21 Oct'03 - 09:08 - 981 of 2307
It is perhaps the MMs devious way of obtaining stock. Can they do this??

psps - 21 Oct'03 - 09:11 - 982 of 2307
Stoorie,
same thing with me .
whats going on

Agincourt - 21 Oct'03 - 09:12 - 983 of 2307
I think the MMs are getting foncused:-

Stoorie - 21 Oct'03 - 09:13 - 984 of 2307
It sounds very strange, I can't imagine the MMs doing anything illegal, they must have known they could get stock in this way. It stinks!!!

PaulKent - 21 Oct'03 - 09:16 - 988 of 2307
Ive still got mine in my comdirect account!..I had a problem with them once before tho when a share consolidated or split...and the way they do it is really messy...initially i was out of pocket until i pointed out to them what the net effect SHOULD be and they then rectified it...it might be that they are going through all the accounts and doing this now so that you jsut end up with the right number of shares...but they DEFINITELY shouldnt be chargin you anything !..god i am soooo late for work!!!!!

Stoorie - 21 Oct'03 - 09:17 - 989 of 2307
psps I have e-mailed them, will post a reply a soon as I get one.

i have sent comdirect a msg as well

Dusseldorf - 21 Oct'03 - 09:22 - 991 of 2307
I still have mine but I use fastrade. Don't worry, brokers always mess things up after a conversion, it takes around 1 week normally before things are corrected, generally because the broker has to wait for new certficates.

rescuer - 21 Oct'03 - 09:25 - 992 of 2307
well done chaps, seems as if you all bought a company "on the cheap" it's what you do next, i suggest you get together, kick out the board and then go on to buy more shells, LoL.

On the comdirect issue, last week i had a problem with them, they cancelled 2 trades of mine and then took the money out of my account without authorisation, basicaly i dumped a stock, traded the NMS consecutivley until i'd cleared out my holding. They informed me that this practice has now been banned and all trades except the first one would be cancelled. I checked out there new terms and condittion (as of 22nd Sept) and clause 5.8 states that you can't do sequential trading "over a period of time" (although they dont say what that period is)in one stock.

Anyways guys, well done, now you just need your certs from the brokers, to finaly put the squeeze on EVO's.

Btw >> where is Knitcraft, didn't he / she get that wrong this morning.

The Divine Comedy - 21 Oct'03 - 09:32 - 993 of 2307

What happens is Comdirect sell your holding and buy back the new share. Its a paper excercise - don't worry - it all works out in the end.

PaulKent - 21 Oct'03 - 09:59 - 1007 of 2307
wonder if this is the scare tactic coming into play?...or whether they really do know something we dont?..have complained to comdirect anyway that i cant trade at all on this..relly does make you wonder about using these online brokers..you need to be able to play at all times on equal footing with rest of market...and clealry right now its not possible!

PaulKent - 21 Oct'03 - 10:00 - 1008 of 2307
oh well, at least ive decided to bunk work this morning so something good has come out of this!

martinwj - 21 Oct'03 - 10:04 - 1013 of 2307
I thought something had gone wrong yesterday. I invested £500 and calculated I should have got 500,000 shares or thereabouts. In the end the trade went through and I only got 49750. Being a bit busy I just thought I'd got my sums wrong. Well of course I hadn't so they have to sort it out today which should be interesting. So you can add 497500 pre consol or 4975 post consol to your list of advfn holders.

VERY QUICK - 21 Oct'03 - 10:06 - 1014 of 2307

PaulKent - 21 Oct'03 - 10:07 - 1016 of 2307
saddam
yeah..no real point doing anything...ONE key reason for being in now is to wait and MAKE mms deliver stock they havent got..or that we THINK they havent got...or SHOULDNT have anwyay...alwasy the risk that theyve done backroom deal thru Board or Chidding or whatever...but if so, then this will definitely get sent to FSA...so selling now jsut gets them off the hook if they are massively short..i think this morning only about 1.75million of OLD shares have been sold...there may be delayed buys or sells too i guess

me me - 21 Oct'03 - 10:08 - 1017 of 2307

rescuer - 21 Oct'03 - 10:22 - 1030 of 2307
guy's just another thought, some of you want to top up >> well,

As you are now all "in the club" and some of you on here may look at an opportunity to sell, i would advise you dont sell back to the market. Clearly there is an issue of MM's being very short and by selling back to the market you are giving them more power to their elbow. If for whatever reason someone does want to sell, why not advertise it this BB, if another wants to top up, you can negotiate a price between you and get your brokers to do a cross trade (X trade), that way you're not giving in to the high spread and you dont pay a buy / sell fee. Just a thought.

VERY QUICK - 21 Oct'03 - 10:25 - 1031 of 2307

Just my opinion

PaulKent - 21 Oct'03 - 10:26 - 1033 of 2307
excellent point rescuer!..would all our brokers agree to that or know how to do it?..im losing confidence in comdirect by the minute, as the markets been open over two hours now and they still havnet sorted out the consolidation!

PaulKent - 21 Oct'03 - 10:26 - 1034 of 2307

agree!

Agincourt - 21 Oct'03 - 10:30 - 1035 of 2307
Quite apart from what comes out of all this in the end.

A very important principle has been established.

Day trading over the internet need not be just an individual excercise but can be organised.

Working together daytraders can really get some real leverage into what they are doing.

We need to establish what the limits are, if any, on the legality of co-operating in this way.

jmillskeel - 21 Oct'03 - 10:31 - 1036 of 2307
posted yesterday you might want to read it again...

Gantenbrink - 20 Oct'03 - 16:56 - 710 of 1034

At the AGM a number of the posters from this site were initially refused entry because the registrars, despite having received faxes of our holdings from our nominees, said that they legally required originals.

Eventually we were allowed in but could not vote.

I for one am taking issue with the Halifax/ iii who had assured me that I would be entitled to vote. They tell me they are investigating.

Meantime I believe that once the dust has settled and everybody has proof of share ownership there may be a call for an informal meeting with the company to discuss it's future.

We were told that an investigation is underway to establish what has gone on with the extreme share trading over the last week or so. Because of the rather fraught nature of the prelim to the meeting this morning I never found out who was investigating. Perhaps if someone here knows they could let us know - beyond that has anyone spoken to the FSA or the like? I a fairly new to this but it does all seem a bit irregular.

Watch out for jmillskeels post. He is probably still travelling after his wasted journey for he like me could not vote.

rescuer - 21 Oct'03 - 10:32 - 1037 of 2307
Paul >> all brokers "should" agree to that, however, there needs to be alot of TRUST between the buying and selling parties, also it can be difficult as the buyer will probably want to pay less than the seller is willing to let them go for. But in principle it is possible.

tonyhicken - 21 Oct'03 - 10:35 - 1038 of 2307
my shares in rsv have now been converted for 100 for 1.so the value of my investment has halved.

rescuer - 21 Oct'03 - 10:39 - 1039 of 2307
so comdirect are up to their tricks again, unfortunatley all on-liners play by the same rules, so what comdirect do will be mirrowed by other on-liners.

I'll dig out and post their changes to the T & C's if you give me 10 minutes or so.

Changes to Terms and Conditions
Section 8- Beneficial Holdings

Client Investments

8.1. Securities either purchased using the service or transferred to comdirect ltd will be held in trust in the name of comdirect nominee ltd, or any nominee company appointed or controlled by us, as part of an unallocated pool. Securities held in the pool are not distinguishable by individual client. This means that in the event of a default of a custodian, if there is a shortfall which cannot be reconciled, you may share proportionately in that shortfall. Although we accept responsibility
for the obligations of our nominee as for our own acts, this does not extend to other custodians appointed by us, unless any loss is a direct result of our fraud, willful default or negligence.

8.2. You will at all times remain the beneficial owner of your securities but you acknowledge that any shareholder incentive attached to your securities may be lost in the event of transfer to a nominee company. Except in the case of ISA or PEP ac counts, voting rights on shares held by us will not be exercised on your behalf, nor will it be possible for you to attend company annual or extraordinary general meetings.

Section 5 - Dealing

5.5. In circumstances where you wish to trade in a size exceeding the maximum online size you should telephone us or submit an order online to our dealers so that we can execute the trade.

5.8. We reserve the right to cancel a transaction without notice where we believe there is sufficient justification. This may include for example, but is not limited to, circumstances where we are requested to do so by our counterparty or the relevant exchange, or where we believe it is necessary to maintain an orderly market or where you execute multiple trades in the same security within a short space of time, where the aggregate size exceeds the maximum online size. We shall not be liable for any loss or expense you incur as a result of the cancellation of a transaction in such circumstances.

PaulKent - 21 Oct'03 - 10:52 - 1043 of 2307
does anyone know of a broker you CAN use AND trade online AND only pay flat low trading fee per transaction, but where you RETAIN the right to vote, attend AGMS etc...:?..ie all the things you CANT do with comdirect!...as im getting a bit fed up with them now

Dusseldorf - 21 Oct'03 - 10:52 - 1044 of 2307
Listen all, don't panic! I know some of you have large amounts invested but the price really will turn around. e.g. Look at the price I invested in CRT (the thread I started)....everybody was panicing then, but I invested and made 50% within two days.

MM's are just driving the price a little given RSV is not showing anywhere. Believe me they want to generate interest in this share and will march it up past 10p with weeks.

Be patient and you won't lose any money - I promise!

Dusseldorf, thanks for your vote of confidence. But all the large shareholders here are not selling or going anywhere just yet, and the price for this share will hit 15p and a lot sooner then most think.

Paul >> all on-liners are the same, ie, they all work from the same T & C's.

This may not be of issue now, as you guys have more pressing matter's, er er er like RVS, but i started a thread a while back, which has a link (somewhere) to an on-liners discussion forum, which hopes to discuss all on-line trading issues in a structured manor. Remember if you do piss off you on-liner, they could in fact freeze your account, so dont do anything in haste.

if you have time you could look at my thread COMN, it's onll about 20 posts longish. Not trying to get anyone to jump on my bandwagon here, as i've since sorted out, to my satisfaction, my problem with comdirect and have no further issues with them at this time. But it may be of interest to all, when selling equities over the NMS on line.
