 "UNHAV" UNITES OVERSEAS INVESTORS CHEATED of SHARES by HALIFAX plc (ex BUILDING SOCIETY)
Over 55,000 member-owners eligible for shares and not resident in UK at conversion time, were told a "cock'n bull" story, that the local Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) clearance fee would have been too "onerous" (read: expensive), or even informed that it was actually "illegal" to send shares to certain countries.
The major "cock-up" Halifax is guilty of, and which, to this day, over 8 years later, refuses to admit and put right, is that FREE shares (nothing more than GIFTS), do not require any clearance.
Enjoying equal rights as mutual OWNERS of the former Halifax Building Society, and for a whole spectrum of glaring legal arguments, the UNHAVs' claims to the hundreds of millions of pounds of unpaid shares will easily be recognized by American justice.
