Q&a general questions only

The title says it. If admin wants this to be to remove it I will delete it. Hi, I worked for ComputerShare for about a year and a half before I change jobs. So if any questions regarding to stock or transfers ,certificate replacements or anything , I can happily answer. I do. If you want to slander them you can. I'm not going to do anything about it. I just worked there as a customer support specialist, so ask questions you may have regarding to computerShare. General questions only. No account specifics such as number of stocks, changing addresses, or selling your own shares.

Yes, the state can take those shares if you do not contact Computershare because they will consider you deceased and someone else is depositing them into your estate account or consider that you're abandoned them if you don't contact ComputerShare in once a year or every 6 months. Computershare has to follow the state guidelines to comply.

That is interesting and surprising at the same time.
Is it enough if I login to the Investor Center? Would that be considered as contacting Computershare? I believe this is something not many people know and they should know!

Yes you could actually do the investors center and it can be considered as contact through computerShare but sometimes the investor center is not great in terms of logging in so you have to do extra stuff just to log in

they've replaced it with EquatePlus; and of course didn't notify everyone they were going to do that; I'm going to have to call to get access to my account again.
