    That's good. So you need to call whomever it is you own them via, the registrar or your stockbroker, and ask what's up or do nothing and wait to see.
  • Hey, can anyone help me. 

    I was under the assumption that Royal Mail shares that weren’t sold, would be compulsory purchased but I’m not sure if this is the case. 

    Can anyone give advise about this or am I required to to send off my paper certificate for the funds? 

    Thanks

    I cannot see any RNS' subsequent to this one that said they'd go ahead with the compulsory acquisition.

    Easiest would be to just contact the registrar and ask what's going on.
