Reuters/Vodafone share certificates

Sirlaughalot

I had a loft clear out a couple of weeks ago and i found two very dusty share certificates for  Reuters Plc and  Vodafone Plc that were sent to me in 2003 when i closed my NatWest account. The share certificates came from a company called EuroCrest.
While of no great value i think i paid around £200 for both of them i remember before i had the certificates i had company reports but that stopped 

Can anyone tell me if my share certificates are still valid and if so are they worth trading in?

Many thanks in advance

I don't think your Vodafone shares will be worth much but it can't hurt to deposit them into your trading account.

You might need to investigate what happened with your Reuters shares because the company was bought by Thomson a long time ago.

TheBanker

Vodafone did a share consolidation in 2006, so you should have been issued a new certificate. 

Reuters were acquired in 2008. You should have received some cash, and some new shares in Thompson Reuters plc.

Do you remember receiving any correspondence or dividend cheques at all? Have you moved address during this period?

Thanks, Mark D,
I no longer have a trading account it was a new Millennium venture in 2000 that failed miserably I`m not ashamed to admit. So I  ended up getting a day job as a machine operator. I thought I would put these away and see what happens, but I forgot all about them!

It says Lloyds TSB registrars on the share certificate I will get in touch with them

Once again thanks  Mark

Lloyds TSB(!) registrars doesn't exist: Vodfone's registrar is Equiniti. 

Has your address changed since the certificates were issued? As TheBanker writes, you should have received a new certificate and some cash in 2006. If you forgot about them I'm guessing you haven't been receiving dividends? Assuming they weren't sold, given the amount of time that's elapsed if the registrar lost contact with you and couldn't trace you the shares may have been forfeited back to the company.

Never got any information regarding Vodafone or  Reuters  other then  company reports pre 2002  for both Reuters and  Vodafone this was before  i transfered  my broker to NatWest/Eurocrest this is where communication seemed to stop not sure if there is a connection.

I was still getting reports for other shares i had but the share holdings were so small i donated all of the to shares to the  charity option

Thanks again mate

Okay, it's good your address hasn't changed. It makes it very mysterious that you haven't received any news, new certificates or dividends though.

Vodafone's ordinary shares are 20 cents and change now so your certificate is definitely defunct. Just call Equiniti and see what it says, number in the link above.

Thompson Reuters officially delisted from London and its primary listing is in Toronto. There are Thompson Reuters shares trading in London, though, so I'm not sure whether UK shareholders contact Computershare in England or Canada.

I would start with Computershare in the UK. The OP won't be the first person to have found some old certificates, so if it's not them they'll be used to re-directing enquiries to Canada.

I don't think your Vodafone shares will be worth much but it can't hurt to deposit them into your trading account.

You might need to investigate what happened with your Reuters shares because the company was bought by Thomson a long time ago.

Thanks, Mark D,
I no longer have a trading account it was a new Millennium venture in 2000 that failed miserably I`m not ashamed to admit. So I  ended up getting a day job as a machine operator. I thought I would put these away and see what happens, but I forgot all about them!

It says Lloyds TSB registrars on the share certificate I will get in touch with them

Once again thanks  Mark
 

Lloyds TSB(!) registrars doesn't exist: Vodfone's registrar is Equiniti. 

Has your address changed since the certificates were issued? As TheBanker writes, you should have received a new certificate and some cash in 2006. If you forgot about them I'm guessing you haven't been receiving dividends?

Thanks, wmb194,

No, I have lived in the same property since we moved here in 1998 we paid off the mortgage in 2023.
Sorry mate it's my Reuters certificate with Lloyds TSB. Got nothing in 2006 regarding new certificate or Cash looks like contact was lost when i left  NatWest stockbrokers/Eurocrest?

My Vodafone registrar was Computershare Investor Services PLC it also says  ordinary shares US$0.10 each

Once again thanks wmb194

OK wmb194,

I think the easiest route is to check if I received any dividend payments into my NatWest account between 2003 and 2008 from Vodaphone and/or Reuters then go to Computershare

This Nasdaq page - its ADRs are listed on the Nasdaq - will give you a rough idea of when to look for Vodafone, it actually goes back farther than Vodafone's website. The dates are MM/DD/YYYY.
