Sell O2 shares

Hi MoneySavers....

I recently got some post from O2 offering to buy my shares off of me as they have been taken over by telephonica. I originally got these shares from BT automatically a few years ago and they amount to only a couple of hundred quid. What i don't know is whether i should say yes or no, and what the considerations are? Any advise would be appreciated.

    Martin’s asked me to post this in these circumstances: Sorry, advice on investments, shares and other risk-based products is not what this site is about. This site is not FSA-regulated and so we’ve had to remove a post/thread directing people to specific investments (please see this rule). If you have any questions about this policy please email [email="%20abuse@moneysavingexpert.com"]abuse@moneysavingexpert.com[/email].
