I must be missing something here. Lets say I have 1000 shares and the div is 28c. When I receive my div, it's not gonna be 1000 x .28, because the div is paid twice a year, right? So do I get it in 2 instalments, like 1000 x .14 twice a year?

So why did I only receive 1000 x .08 ( 8c ) ? What am I missing??
 
Checked it out at Link Market Services, apparently they quote the "participating" shares to be only 580 instead of 1000. I've had all my shares for ages, obviously way before ex div date. Any idea what's going on?
 
Can someone confirm the next dividend date for TLS? Is it end of Feb?

Could be tax. Did you supply TFN? Sorry for late reply. I'm only 5 years late. Hope you got it sorted.
