"Unlisted shares and securities" CG section doesn't allow zero in Disposal proceeds

Posted Mon, 29 Jan 2024 08:59:45 GMT by
When I submit with zero I just get "The amount entered in 'Disposal proceeds' must be greater than or equal to £1. Please amend." -- how do I claim for a complete loss if I can't enter zero in the "Disposal proceeds: (optional)" section (company I bought unlisted shares in has been liquidated so there are no proceeds)?

Hi NotTheRealMrT,
Please leave the box blank, where you require a nil value.
 In computer terms, '0' is a number and the programming is looking for a number greater than or equal to 1.  '0' confuses it.
Thank you.
