2p per share payable on 30th September 2024.

Plus another 8p per share if the takeover completes. I'm not sure of the timetable for that.

You must've spent a few quid accumulating over 3500 Royal Mail shares

It would be interesting to see the profit you've made over the last decade if you were to sell them all tomorrow

You would have been better off putting your £23 per week in an All World Index Tracker for the last 10 years........ far less riskier that investing in a single company...... especially 1 that is struggling to cope with the structural decline of the letters business.

perhaps, but the net cost of £23 has actually been £16.56-£15.64 (depending on NIC rate when purchased).

So even if share price had remained flat, on exit that's a ~30% uplift just due to the Tax & NI relief we've benefitted from as well as the dividends along the way
