Does anyone know how to change address for existing shares?
Need to write or phone the Registrar, Link Group. From their FAQ:
If you have moved please let us know so we can update your personal details and keep you informed about your shareholding.
For security reasons, we cannot accept your request by email or through the 'contact us' form.
If you hold your shares in CREST you will need to contact your provider to make the changes.
Online
If you have already registered, you can login to change your address. Once logged in, click on ‘Manage your account’ at the top of the screen and then select ‘My details’ to change your address.
If you haven’t registered you can do so and update your address immediately. Go to the home screen and follow the link to ‘register an account’. You’ll need to enter your investor code, surname and postcode - enter the post code we have registered for you rather than your new details.
