I used to have Sky shares, then all shares were compulsory purchased back.
Few months later I got phone call that came through the call blocker (caller followed the instructions).
He was phoning about my 275 shares. (I had had a lot more than that!)
I told him that I didn’t have them and that nobody had them any more because of the buy back.
Next question - “had I received the money”
Told him that he was trying to scam me and hung up on him!

Firms do reissue and rejig shares but usually tell you. Make sure your address is as is. If you had bought 100 shares orig issue in Bill gates thieves' emporium - microsoft that is ! you would as a result of reissues, further issues, rejigs etc etc be sitting on mucho mucho moolah ( $100m or something ridiculous)
Costain nearly went bust so that wont happen here !
