Royal Mail Shares

Has anyone been paid out for their Royal Mail Shares ?
I didn't reply to the initial communication as I couldn't find my share certificates. It did say that a reply was not essential.
I received a form to claim 'my payout', as a 'dissenter' some time later. 
I could not locate all certificates, but again, it said this was not essential, I am a low value investor.
It has been a few weeks now, is this normal ?

    There are other threads on this and lots of people say they’ve been paid; contact the registrar and ask it what’s going on.
