Welcome back DOS. Your explanation sounds plausable.
I'm not sure how to go about getting my broker to recognize there is a dividend due. If Aurus would have gone through the TA, there would be documentation available to all brokers. That is not the case. This leads me to believe that many of us could have the "Parkin-air-shares."
I had my largest account transferred to a shares certificate, but the certificate is dated 6 Jan 2010. So, the transfer did me no good for this dividend. Therefore, my broker has no control over them.
