Re: Telegraph Article: Monitise is surel... "There are fantasists like wigwanchor and Steve Gurr"Smiles................ like I said earlier, you silly little man, look at my post history and you'll see me telling you where I banked my profits here.If that's being a fantasist I'll take it every single one of my remaining days.
Re: Sir Burnt to a crisp Had to laugh when I happened to spot another pearl of wisdom from Sir Badly Singed where he said "Have a good feel about this one. So staying put." and said he'd 'got in' at 100p. That was about Afren, now swimming with the fish.The guy's a genius. Basically if he buys something it's time to get out and consider a short position. You can't lose.
up 5.6% now - bizarre!
Sir Burnt to a crisp Last time we heard from the clown known as Sir Badly Burnt he offered the opinion that I could "Jump of a cliff if this hits 7p".I'm not quite sure how to jump of something but I probably need not worry too much as the chances of this reaching 280% of today's close look rather slimmer than his fat lips.
Re: Telegraph Article: Monitise is surely a ... No wonder Sir Singed to a Crisp is so quiet."A crumbling share price? Check. Losses totalling hundreds of millions of pounds? Check. The loss of several major clients? Check. Three different chief executives this year? Check, check and check. And now the finance chief has stepped down. Could the situation be any more disastrous at Monitise, the mobile payments company? Londons Alternative Investment Market has served up some absolute horror stories over the years but the rapid unravelling of Monitise is surely a contender for car crash of 2015."But not everyone has lost money. There are fantasists like wigwanchor and Steve Gurr I'M Angry and then there are those who have made a genuine pile from this heap of rubbish."In the year the Aim mobile payments company posted a £63.4m pre-tax loss, directors received exceptional bonuses in recognition of their success.Co-CEO Alastair Lukies enjoyed a near-doubling of his total pay package over the year to June, from £616,000 to £1.17m, according to yesterdays 2014 annual report. His commercial chief, Lee Cameron, was awarded a 43pc pay rise from £473,000 to £677,000."If you hold shares in Monitise you have been royally shafted by these cowboys and insider dealers.

Re: dont.. I know - it was RBS I spoke to. They used Moni as a quick way to get a customer front end while they developed their own application. Same applied to others which is why they lost clients after an initial hopeful looking period.
Re: dont.. i think one of the biggest misunderstood aspects is the mobile payments thing... monitise is not actually a mobile payments company and never has been... it does not have any mobile payments services.... To provide an example - the natwest app which the company helps run is just that.. an app.. the payment elements happen in the bank, monitise is just the customer layer. make sense?
Re: In the Monitise You silly little man..............I thought t was a great little company when I was banking my profits, and my last comment on the company was "to me it now looks completely fooked"But hey..................you carry on attributing me with statements, it says way more about you than it ever will about m
Re: dont.. I don't have questions because I largely agree with you and said some time ago that I didn't see Moni having a future as an independent company and perhaps no future at all. I bought shares a while back on the digital payments sector story (which still holds) but sold (at a 50% profit at 56p) because I'd come to realise the technology was weak, the management team were weak and not to be trusted and the company had become a share issuance machine to the detriment of existing holders.I'm clearly not as close to the detail as you but I have spoken to a guy who ran one of the world's largest payments business and whose group is a customer of Moni, to the guy at Visa who helped managed the relationship with Moni and to someone at another bank who works with Moni and none of them thought Monitise would survive long term.
Re: dont.. I am amazed you dont have more questions? I can be more specific than any analyst about the business, nobody wants to know anything?It was a shame about Brad this week, a very good asset in my opinion. He has been caught in a storm for 2 years in my view. I am sure he has wanted out for over a year. I can see the stock bouncing around at these levels up and down on low volumes.
In the Monitise The Times today:"What a brilliant misnomer Monitise has become ... such a licence to print money that everyone's left: [Lukies, Buse] and now the finance chief ... at least one senior director has made money .. ingeniously cashing in £675,500 of shares under option .. three days before news from Visa saw them tank 35% and keep falling"Article goes on to say one might imagine Lee Cameron would want to hand back his huge profit (especially given the whiff of insider dealing) but he has refused to do so.And yet this bunch of sharks can still find people like Steve and wigwannker and Sir Singed Beyond Recognition who think it's a great little company and likely to do well in the future. One born every minute.

Re: steve gurr Love the little smiley faces to try to show your emotions.But yes, thats a very helpful clarification, thank you. So you dont object to people who own no shares but post here regularly provided you agree with them. And you dont object to someone who posts mostly childish abuse provided the abuse is aimed at someone you think you dont like but have never met. Which might make sense and appear not at all inconsistent to you provided you are either six years old or have suffered a major ischaemic stroke. How does this ignore button work???
