Hi,
I'm after a bit of advice

I have some Rolls Royce shares that I would like to sell.

I wondered if someone could point me in the direction of the easiest/least complicated/cheapest way of doing so.

Many Thanks.

I’m assuming from the nature of your question you hold the shares in traditional paper format?

I use x-o.co.uk

Download the relevant form off their website and send them your share certificate.

When they show in your account you can instruct them to sell either a No of shares or say how much cash you want and they sell the relevant No of shares.

You pay a flat fee of about £6 per trade regardless of how much you make/No if shares you sell.

Thanks Dave.

That looks like exactly what I'm looking for.
