    I have taken your advice and Live chatted with my bank (HSBC) and they have said that they do not buy or transfer paper shares. Apparently it is 2018......

    So you spoke to HSBC at 11.30pm on a Sunday evening?
    Maybe you had better call them again tomorrow and ask to speak to someone else.

    Thank you everyone for your replies..

    I have spoken to Asda, Visa, Trading Standards, Bank, Etc..

    All is sorted now as there is NO rule and they gave me gesture of goodwill for the inconvenience.

    Thanks :)

    Great news!

    Asda behaved badly and I am glad that they have taken appropriate steps to rectify the problem.

    Yes I get 24/7 service as I have a premium account. They did mention that they used to offer this service but stopped in 2016 as it was no longer required. I assume you have managed to find an old form online.

    The link Shaun provided was from 2014 which is why I mentioned 2014, HSBC stopped accepting paper share certificates in 2016!

    If you are going to take part at least try and pay attention :rotfl:
