Share Dealing Services
An on-line and telephone share dealing facility is available through our registrars, Capita Registrars, providing shareholders with an easy to access and simple to use service. There is no need to pre-register and there are no complicated forms to complete. The on-line and telephone dealing service allows you to trade “real time” at a known price which will be given to you at the time you give your instruction.
To deal on-line or by telephone all you need is your surname, shareholder reference number, full postcode and your date of birth. Your shareholder reference number can be found on your latest statement or certificate where it will appear as either a “folio number” or “investor code”. Please have the appropriate documents to hand when you log on or call, as this information will be needed before you can buy or sell shares. For further information on this service, or to buy and sell Rentokil Initial shares, please contact www.capitadeal.com (on-line dealing) or 0871 664 0454 (Calls cost 10p per minute plus network extras) (telephone dealing).
