Old Halifax shares

Crossy

Many moons ago when Halifax became a bank I was issued with shares, they then got taken over by lloyds, are they worth anything now?

Thanks

Depends how many Lloyds shares you have.

You should have received a share certificate or notification of the number. Multiply that by the share price and you'll find out how much but don't expect it to be anywhere near the £1000 or so it was when they floated.

They are worth something nowhere near as much as they were before the crisis

glad i sold mine immediately in the nineties. I recall getting 1600 as it paid for my student accommodation at the time.
