Halifax Share Dealing Day

[Belle's World]

Can someone please let me know when the next one of these is? For some reason I don't get the email and I need to buy an extra 80 shares to get my membership back.

I don't think there was one in February, they are usually at the end of the month so I guess there will be one next week... I will confirm when I got an email from them for sure...

 

[Belle's World]

Thank you so much.

 

[netimka]

just got this email... put a date in your dairy now... 5th of March, will post again when they email me more details....



Not long until our £3.95 commission offer
Due to unprecedented demand for January's Commission Countdown event we experienced a slower than usual service.

We have since decided to postpone February's Commission Countdown event so that we can make some improvements to our dealing service.

Don't worry, we're going to make sure you continue to benefit from our monthly reduced priced trading offers so we're planning two Commission Countdown events in March.

The first event will take place on Wednesday 5th March. The time of the offer will change slightly so look out for an email the day before the offer to let you know the full details.

Remember, if you'd like to trade during this event, you'll need to fund your account beforehand and if you choose to transfer money in by debit card, the funds will be available to invest immediately. Trade Plan, UK stamp duty and foreign currency conversion charges will also continue to apply.

That's great, thank you for sharing!

 

[Belle's World]

Has anyone had the email stating what time this will take place?

 

[netimka]

no email yet might be later today, when I got it will post here for you...

 

[netimka]

just got it:

On Wednesday 5th March between the earlier time of 9:30am - 11:30am, our online trading commission has been reduced for UK shares to £3.95, a discount of £8 per trade. Stamp Duty charges do still apply and as you'll know, if your TradePlan executes during the offer period the usual charges are applicable too.

We're giving you the same great discount for any online purchases or sales you make of International shares between 8am and 9pm. So for each transaction, your online trading commission will only be £3.95. Don't forget that foreign exchange rates of 1% either side of the available exchange rates apply as well.

 

[Belle's World]

Thank you so much for your help.

 

[netimka]

not a problem... just to add even thought the deal for international markets is till 9pm, the French one closing at 4 so so you will need to buy by then...

btw shares were 4.21 EUR at the closing today...

 

[Belle's World]

All bought, - a very good price too I thought.
