What happens to shares held in Bradford & Bingley now?

Hi
Had just over 1000 shares in Bradford & Bingley - what happens now?
They were purchased thro' Selftrade, and about a week ago Selftrade removed them from my portfolio - if it wasn't for the original purchase action letter you'd think I never owned any shares in BB.
Do we just wait for 'something' to happen in all this chaos, or can I just 'kiss'em goodbye'?
Thanks
Gazza

They are suspended. So you can't do anything . Someone will work out how much they are worth, and send you a check in the post eventually... If I were you I would just expect not to get anything back, you will be more or less wiped out since B&B is practically worthless.

Is anyone going to officially inform us of the nationalisation? I've heard nothing from the B&B or anyone else!0
