Woolwich demutualisation

Hi all,
My Grandfather has given me an old passbook that he opened when I was a child way back in 1986 and the last transaction in the book being in 2003.
I have searched online and from the info found it seems that it qualified for the demutualisation shares, but I don't know how to go about claiming these due to the fact a lot of the info is from years ago. Is there a time limit on claiming?
Thanks

Too late according to this.

Chances are he's had and sold the shares anyway.0 -
I vaguely remember that there was a connection between the demutualisation and Barclays shares.0

Barclays bought out Woolwich so if the shares were still held at that date then they might have been converted if it wasn't an all cash offer.Remember the saying: if it looks too good to be true it almost certainly is.0
