Has anyone been paid for shares either the 104 taxable or the tax free 613?

The 103 shares weren't available to sell until October 16th so I'm a little confused how you managed to sell them on the 11th ?.

It was!

The dates we got our free shares and therefore when we can sell them, has been covered many times on these forums. But for anyone still not sure here are when all 4 batches of free shares were issued and the number of shares full timers received:

15th October 2013 - 613
9th April 2014 - 116
5th October 2015 - 103
6th October 2016 - 81

You have to wait 3 years from each date to sell with tax & NI payable, or 5 years tax free, unless you're a good leaver.

I sold my 613 free shares last Thursday morning. The money was paid into my bank account this morning. Very easy and straightforward.
