Corporate Sponsored Nominee Accounts

Due to flotations etc over the years I have got small shareholdings in the likes of Santander, Iberdrola etc held by Equiniti. However, given the relative low value , Equiniti charges a relatively high fee to sell them and their website seems to imply that I have to use them if I want to dispose of the share. Are their any alternatives to this?

    Yes, you should be able to transfer them in specie to another stockbroker.
