(Sorry for double submit) Response was from message centre re WTP. Sure there is profit on the existing shares but do you suggest not to try to apply for $15k offers and laugh it off? I guess you have sold all your shares on IB and moved back to commsuc immediatley ;)

Latest today from IB is the lucrative WATPAC offer is not available through them and also the easy money BKW is a one parcel slice-up. Very wierd. May be company by company and yet the same "Computershare" handler can have 3 different results. (can do, can do a bit, can not do):rolleyes...

Firstly thanks to IB for great frequent trader pricing. Next, I have recently reuested the full $15,000 in shares offered for the capital raising by Macquarie Bank (MQG). I finally only received $3,000 worth of shares and am told by IB that there was a scaleback! This cost me about $8,000...
