Some good news at last from this weeks Shares mag. Tim Freeborn revisits the company and altho no firm details are given about new deals he says they will be announced this quarter. I would think that this could be at the same time as the interim results are announced. I for one will be holding on cos they will fly sooner rather than later! ( 8.30% up today!)

I am holding this shares because I do not believe TF's prevarications. I am however cancelling my subscription to Shares M.

if earthport were paid for transmiting bullshit instead of cash the share price would be 10 by now

I am afraid that the personal attacks on individuals on this particular thread has gone far enough. We have therefore edited some posts as we have had a number of complaints of abusive language.

We have been very liberal in letting you have your say about articles written about the company but when these postings border on libel we have to take some action.

Shares Magazine and MoneyAm operate very strict codes of conduct in relation to staff /journalist share purchases and these are adhered to.

If you have any issue in relation to Shares Magazine, the correct proceedure is to write to.

If you have any question relating directly to Earthport and its announcement(s) or lack of them, then these should be addressed to the CEO at Earthport:

remember it was RC who gave the predictions, so you should all be calling the EPO office on 02079071100 and ask him why so much crap has been told to TF. or does he reallY talk out of his ass! I cannot ring him anymore as he will not talk to me anymore. REMEMBER I HAVE HIM ON A RECORDING LYING ABOUT THE US DEAL TELLING ME IT IS IMMINENT AND THEN SAYING HE DID NOT SAY THAT.

my faith is resored in TF to give an honest update..........thank you........although i hold 500k shares I am pleased a sell note was posted and the write up was fair. I continue to hold and believe my investment will turn around. I still think we need to look at how the shares magazine has conducted itself during this process and I think Jlacey should look at the post he put on which was insulting to those open minded investors like myself.......mistakes have been made in my view. Now come on EPO get your arse in gear and put some info in the public domain......

Astonvilla,

It seems reasonably clear to me, that Tim has been comprehensively misled, by whom, under what circumstances and for whose benefit is a question of conjecture, and one perhaps best answered by the appropriate authorities. ssanebs post should be exceptionally distrurbing, assuming of course he is telling the truth (sorry, ssanebs, but without hearing it who would know?).

But there appears no doubt that an awful lot of people bought following the buy recommendation and the updates. Was/is this tantamount to creating a false market for the benefit of insiders should also be considered by those whose function it is supposed to be to guard against such things; however I wouldn't hold your breath. Holding on now, may well simply be a question of hope over experience, or you simply have to accept that you will in all likelihood be writing off everything.

For my sins I was a holder of dialog/brightstation/smartlogik and the parallels to here is scary, fortunately for me, that whole experience made me much more wary, I just hope it doesn't end up the same way it did there, i.e. constantly raising cash, promising/leaking news/ good journalist coverage/a promised positive trading update and then going completely tits up, and as they never produced any final statutory accounts, the receivers just got there money, and the little shareholders just got shafted, and of course all the directors walked away, wealthier and scot free...in the meantime the Shareholder action group has now realised that the professional advisors were anything but, and the chances of holding anyone to account are slim. City insiders seem to know how to close ranks well.

As I said, I hope for the small PIs sake this isnt another one.

As always, I urge you to DYOR, all imho and all that BS,

Best of luck to you all, I hope they can turn it around.

Has anyone tried contacting EPO for a comment regarding the current share price and the sell recommendation in todays Shares magazine ? I have sent an e-mail but have had no reply. I bought a substantial holding on Shares mag earlier buy recommendation but feel we should be contacting the company for information not hounding Shares mag staff, despite my obvious disappointment.

I have found me password. What is going on with PCM, EPO is obviuosly raising more moeny, or being bought by baltimore.

O'Neill, I have just spoken to Peter Chappell who has confirmed the same. Statement will be released tomorrow or Monday at the latest. He intimated this would be positive.

One ill. Charming and endearing as ever!!!

If TF can (I assume) sell his stock out the day before the ShareMag issue then he had no option but to call it as a Sell. I can appreciate his reasoning but at this price we are talking basic option money with no time erosion. Maybe now is a good time for EPO Directors to show their commitment to their company and buy some stock . In the meantime the MM's have it all their own way and the small guys once again get ground down.

Just picked up some stock (not difficult) between 1.35 and 1.41 I am definately not going to lose any sleep over it.

i've been slated on this board since my first posting, my view has not changed on the company and its management no matter how positive the trading statement is when it finally appears. Take a very close look at the revenue numbers when they appear and ask yourself if these no's contain real revenues from actual sales, check debtors / creditors, interesting to see if ernst & young sign the same no's off at audit stage.
Im very unhappy with what is possibly inc in these revenues ( to satisfy new investors i might ask, bear in mind RC told shareholders that epo did not need to raise more money.
This man s position is untenable, he must go , its best for everyone concerned

You where right all along! I take my hat off to you cos ive given you stick too(Rob67 on ADVFN)but you have stuck to your guns about RC and i for one now believe you!! Shame ive wasted stacks of cash on this pile of shite too!!

So if the trading statement doesn't appear tomorrow (Fri) or by close of business on Monday can we assume that both of the EPO people, whose comments to Qu's were posted on here are blaggers, (always assuming that the posters on here are correct).

Can someone post an email address on here on how to contact RC or the chairman if the trading statement doesn't arrive. I'm sure that I could look it up on the EPO website but I can't be arsed to spend any more time than I have to on this stock!

Also do we know for sure whether Tim Freeborn has sold. Could he confirm whether he still holds his stock, either in full or part, (I can't see by him disclosing whether he holds a few million shares when there are 500 ml. in circulation is going to affect the price). Also we don't know what price he bought at. So he might not be well down - just bruised ?!

Also, what about the big bear position reported here earlier this week and last. Presumably these people have cleaned up on the latest fall and if the trading statement contains more puffed up promises, they will want to close their positions and take profits just in case some of it is true. Will this not be positive for the share and give a time for those remaining bears who hold stock to exit at a higher price than now ?

Just my thoughts :-)
