DO I have to use the same broker I used to sell my shares as I did when I bought them? M, Nottingham.

Damion Larkin at The Share Centre says: Yes and no. If you bought the shares within a nominee account the broker is effectively holding the shares so you must use the same broker when you want to sell.

But if you bought the shares in certificated form (ie you hold the certificates), then you can use any broker you like to sell them.

Linda Whitney adds: Shop around - see information about choosing a broker on this site.
