Lost share certificate

  • When I lost a share certificate, I believe it cost me £80 to get a replacement. They will need to be in your name too, if they are really your fathers.

    Out of interest, if you hold a certificate and dividends are reinvested, do you get an extra certificate every time a dividend is paid? 

    Considering fees, when it comes to selling you could have loads of certificates worth less than it costs to sell them?

    Sale costs are based on number of shares sold, often with a minimum charge, not on number of certificates involved

    No, we get statements everytime a dividend is converted to shares but no certificates. Barclays Sharestore told us to use shareview to sell but haven't given us a method to turn off the buying of new shares with the dividends. All very unsatisfactory.

    Hi,
    maybe this form is what you need stop SCRIP dividends, then you will need this form to set up a Bank Mandate to have future dividends paid in.
