DRS. comment. SHOP.
Can confirm. DeGiro, there is way out!
Congrats on making it out!
A note for CanadApes – IBKR via interactivebrokers.ca is also only $5 USD to DRS. Best alternative now that BMO charges $100.
100%! IBKR is pretty much the number 1 broker to DRS with if you’re not a US citizen now. Really not many options outside of it, which sucks! But at least we have something.
Can confirm questtrade is 300$, however they dont have a system to transfer cost basis. I called their ‘service’ out for what it is incomplete. They sent me the docs to do it myself, I still asked for a refund. They gave me half the fee back into my account(150USD). After which I sent it to my bank bought directly with computer share using wise and terminated the leftovers.
On a family note, my mother was asked to pay two drs fees since her splividend shares got stuck at her brocker while her real shares were at computershare(Cause that makes fucking sense). After some encouragement from me, she talked to them and got the rest DRS’d for no charge(she is at different bank think it was 80$ for DRS).
Buy hold DRS…the rest is just noise.
edit: got the refund about 10 months from original tranfer date
Yeah getting cost basis outside of the US is just about impossible! I’m surprised they even sent you the docs to do it yourself! The important thing is keeping a hold of your transaction statements from questrade. That’s enough to prove your cost basis when it comes to it.
That’s super annoying for you mum. The broker should have waited for the dividend shares to settle before making the transfer! Clearly trying to squeeze a bit of extra cash out of people through bad service. Can’t believe it took so long to get the refund as well! You should have been able to charge interest for it. I guarantee they would if it were the other way around!
Anyway well done on getting out of there and for helping your mum do the same! That’s some dedication right there.
Fuck yeah this is it !!
This is the good stuff!
Thanks for posting this. I’ve been meaning to DRS my AMC shares, but honestly just been too lazy to even look up how to go about it.
Totally understand, the brokers do not make it easy! So it made sense to fill that gap in the market ;)
Hope this helps you get it done!
What is bank of Scotland and why does it have a British flag on it
Scotland is pretty much England’s Canada. They’re trying to get away from us and I can’t blame them 😂
as a canadian, i like this description.
The actual fuck
Can confirm, comdirect there is a way out.
For CanadApes, BMO used to be great (free) but now it’s $100, so f*ck em. Use Interactive Brokers Canada or DRS directly by purchasing from ComputerShare (but remember to BOOK and shed the fractional afterwards).
