Hi

As those who spread bet will know, most spread betting companies pay 80-90% of the div (they say it for tax purposes), however in the UK, dividend are paid with a 10% tax credit that satisfies a BR tax payer (deemed to have already paid), so why do they still slap this charge on? ANy ideas? Thanks.
