B&W 8.125% preference shares

I've had the typical holding of 250 shares from the sale of Bristol and West many years ago. Last year I had a letter about it being wound up but for various reasons did nothing at the time. (All my own fault - let's not go there!)

I understand the winding up happened and sensible shareholders have been paid. Does anyone know what (if anything) can I do now about this, please?

    They were due to pay out Q2 of this year. If they had your bank details I assume it should have happened by now. If they did not have your details as you failed to provide them when prompted then I suggest you get in contact with them now and see if your money is in limbo waiting to be claimed.
