Dragon Oil Share Claim

I hope the following information will help anyone who finds themselves with the same questions I had.

Back in the 1990's I bought some Dragon Oil shares when there was a rumour they would increase in value in the coming months.

I have moved house so did not receive any documents about the ENOC acquisition earlier this year.

I have received a letter today from Capita advising they can arrange for me to be paid for the shares for a fee of 15% + 20% VAT. It does say that this is optional and that I can claim directly from the Registrar which is also a Capita service. I appreciate that I have been traced by them doing an address search but the fee for my shares would be £260.24 so I would prefer to claim directly.

The details of how to claim are not clear in the letter but I called and have been advised that the process is to ignore the prepaid envelope and send the original share certificate and a covering letter to a different Dublin address. That address is Capita Asset Services, Shareholders Solutions (Ireland), 2 Grand Canal Square, Dublin, DO2 A342.

The guy I spoke to said that it will take 6 weeks to process rather than 30 days if I pay the fee for them to do it.

Kind regards,

Tracey
