I held shares thru my brokers nominees account under the crest system. They were instructed to sell the shares , confirmed in writing they had done so and lodged the proceeds to my account. However, before this confirmation, i was told they werent sold as i didn't have the shares or the certs to sell and no funds were ever transfered. At the time I disputed this but didn't argue too much and assumed I did something wrong. Subsequently, I was charged for an indemnity (which arrived with the letter confirming the sale) which I received but didn't sign. Now, between the order to sell and the date of the indemnity cert. the shares collapsed. Am I a fool or have I been screwed? Any help would be appreciated.
