Dividend News

What's up with the Dividend News tab?  We used to be able to scroll back quite a few days in the past.  For the past month (?) maybe more, items just drop off from time to time for no apparent reason.  Makes me wonder how many news items are going missing each day.

How would you rate the customer service you received?

Hello HBSaltydog,

We've made certain changes to the overall design of the page and certain bugs were also addressed with it.
Can you please check and confirm if the issue of 'disappearing news' is now fixed, or is it still there?
Thanks in advance.

Can you please share the symbols where you're experiencing this issue, so we can investigate this further

FYI, you can find all dividend related news under News (tab)>>Dividend News (dropdown)
or follow this link, and edit the URL for the desired symbol accordingly

It's not a "symbol" issue, it's a list issue.  I refer to the Dividend News tab (?)  numerous times a day and sometimes for no apparent reason prior items are just gone.  Each of the entries are time stamped so when I come across something wherein the last entry I noted, say at 3:34pm is now gone and there is only one entry time stamped, lets say at 6:07pm it makes me wonder what if anything I might have missed in those intervening 2.5 hours.  This isn't a constant or regular occurrence but it is happening with greater frequency.

The last item I saw yesterday was HRI with a time stamp of 5:28pm.  That's missing today along with everything else from yesterday.  Also yesterday, this issue seemed to start with the FBVA item with a time stamp of 2:22pm.  Prior to that, the last entry (which disappeared along with all items prior) was WIPKF with a time stamp of 12:49pm.

Today, the first entry is EBF @ 6:26am and as I mentioned, nothing shown at all for yesterday.

And again....this is fast becoming the norm and not the exception.  Todays news blackout occurred sometime after 10:24AM and 5:26PM.

Will SA be offering some steep discounts on upcoming renewals to mitigate some of this failure?
