    Some advice please, I want to sell some old paper shares (power company, still listed) and I've been told the easiest way to sell them is at a bank, is that correct? If so are any banks better (set up) to do this?

    I know I could sell them cheaper by converting them to Crest or to one of the online brokers, but I just want a very simple, quick process where I can walk in to something like a High St. bank and offload them.

    Has anyone sold any paper shares like this recently or knows how it works (like what ID would I need etc.).

    Thanks in advance.

    Having spent the last hour reading the thread, I decided to be brave and register to ask for some much needed advice.

    I am a trustee to a Will trust. Under the terms of the Will trust, I must provide a reasonable income for the life tenant during the remainder of her lifetime (she is 80yrs and not in good health) and capital growth for the reamaindermen (other family members).

    Advice from an IFA recommends we consider a portfolio of unit trusts and oeics, using Selestia as a platform from which to select from the top fund managegment companies. Skandia UK is suggested. If we take this up, we pay a one off fee of £9,000 and then the annual management fee.

    So my question is:

    Would I be better placing the money into several bank accounts upto the max £50,000 for protection from FSCS and having the interest paid directly to the life tenant?

    OR

    Buying shares via a bank like Natwest, HSBC, Lloyds etc and all dividends paid directly to the life tenant?


    OR

    Buying shares via Selftrade that I have read about on this thread?

    My research tells me that 5 years minimum is the best bet to keep money invested, but if the life tenant did pass away earlier than 5 years the remaindermen want the money asap. This is adding to my hesitation to invest without researching all other available options.

    I have no experience of handling money in this way, a rainy day fund, in a good bank account I rarely dip into, is about the level of my experience. I would really appreciate some advice on which way to jump to make this money work for all concerned.

    Many thanks
    LadyTottington

    I'm inclined to agree with that view, whatever the money goes to should be very low risk, equities would not fit that requirement.
    Hope for the best.....Plan for the worst!

    My daughter is planning to sell her BT shares. How does she go about transferring the holding to me and does she have to pay for such a service?

    I have a problem my partner has been left some shares by his dad and been told by the solicter to open an account.

    He did try and he cannot open an account as the address is blocked.

    We know as I am on a DMP me not him

    How does he sell them.

    The solicter said as the other brothers wants the shares then they all have to have shares and he wont sell them?
