Obtaining a medallion signature guarantee in UK

MSGHelp
Posts: 3 Newbie

My father passed away earlier this year. He owned some US Walmart shares. When I contacted Computershare to notify them of his passing, they told me the first thing we need to do is transfer the shares into my name and, in order to do that, I need a medallion signature guarantee amongst other things. Does anyone know how I can find legit companies that offer this on the UK? I have researched online but really don't know what I am looking for or how to check if a company is authorised to provide the medallion signature guarantee - I don't want to end up in a situation where Computershare say the company I choose isn't recognised by them. Any advice greatly appreciated!

Ask them to recommend a couple and see what works easiest for you.
I had to do similar to open an investment account overseas and it took a bit of to & fro-ing to get things sorted but was resolved in the end by getting the investment company to agree to me using a particular solicitor instead.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on Debt Free Wannabe and Old Style Money Saving boards.

I did try that link but clearly did something wrong as couldn't get any UK results. Thanks all - sorting my dad's affairs hasn't been straight forward but one less worry now. Thanks again!1
