Paying fees

The easiest way to pay is by UK debit card. Call us on 0800 181 4702 and we will take your details over the phone.
Alternatively, you can send us a fee cheque. If the shares are held in certificated form, this needs to be made payable to 'Link Market Services' and if the shares are held electronically, this needs to be made payable to 'Link Market Services Trustees'.

Replacement payment fees

If you have a payment that needs to be reissued we can do this for you. We may charge a fee for this service to go towards the administration costs involved and security checks that must be performed.
