      Of all the tech support phone calls I've had to do in my life, this has to be the worst company I've ever worked with. I wish I could give it less than 1 star. They were supposed to ***** me my account portfolio and they accidentally sent me someone elses portfolio which makes me think they sent mine to someone else as well. Totally incompetent! I can't tell you how many hours i've wasted getting transferred and disconnected.

      I had an account they could not find. Kept sending me to ******. ****** kept sending me back. Turns out they do have my account but several incompetent employees. Sold all my shares. Never doing business with them ever again, even if they are the only **** broker offered by my employer

      Nothing but a nightmare!!! I am the executor on my mom's estate AND a joint holder with my mother on her computershare accounts. I just want to cash out the stocks and close the account. I've filled out the paperwork and when I go to get the medallion stamp and a notary and no one will do it. I have been told since I'm a joint holder I should only need to provide a death certificate to liquidate the account, not transfer into my own account first. I'm at a loss at what to do until I speak with her attorney. I was my Mom's caregiver for 2 years until she passed from ALS. I'm grieving my mother and it is sad that I have to go through this stress when I am clearly a joint holder and have proof she is deceased. I was also told if I don't do this the money will be sent to the state and go into probate. This makes no sense with my name on it.

      This company is THE WORST and has continually made the process of redeeming shares in companies from my mother's estate unbearable. I am the executor of my mother's estate and have only encountered bureaucratic barriers and ridiculous requirements for things like original hard copies of court appointment letters (of which I have one, and not enough for each stock request!) medallion stamps for change of address forms which require a recent statement, but then have no recent statements issued from them to make any changes. I can find no record of them ever issuing a statement to my mother, despite issuing her dividends - which apparently don't count. Never ever deal with this company or their partner *******.

      It has been a nightmare working with them at every. single. step. Setting up the account is a nightmare. Getting through to customer service who can only help with a VERY limited number of things is a nightmare. They double withdrew from my account which caused me to overdraft in my checking. I fixed it. Then I went to make a large purchase of stock using a specific account, and they took it from a different account that I DIDNT input for the transaction, again causing me to overdraft on every purchase until I caught it. They owe me SEVERAL overdraft fees. ??

      ***************************** & Computershare. NOT MORTGAGE COMPANIES.1. PLS READ ARTICLE MAY 2023: REUTERS 10/2/2023 AUSTRALIA DID A DEAL SELLING MORTGAGE PORTFOLIO TO ******************* COMPANY has all these small outlets So when you're late on your mortgage they can instantly just throw you in foreclosure and make a ton of money. The reason for this is because a co. like ***** Fargo Does Not Want foreclosures in their portfolios; it would look very bad. So they sell off mortgages to these fraudulent little shell companies that actually NOW (Not early last year)They Finally state on their website 2. "WE DO NOT HELP NEW YORKERS" Didn't say that on SLS website EVER I complained non-stop and now SLS seems to be gone. And now it's Shellpoint, which is the absolute exact thing. There's a Newrez in ******** **?! SLS was headquartered in ************ a PO BOX in ******** that was rented as a space w a couple of people that would work as a call center.3. *PLEASE READ: 2024 ************* today completed its previously announced acquisition of Computershare Mortgage Services **** and certain affiliated companies, including ****************************** ("SLS"). Immediately following the closing of the acquisition, SLS merged into ********** ("Newrez").May 2, 2024 NEWREZ SHELLPOINT STATES ON THEIR WEBSITE THE FOLLOWING:Licensed ****************************** of Financial Services. This site is not authorized by the New York State Department of Financial Services. No mortgage loan applications for properties located in the state of ******** will be accepted through this site

      A TALE of WOE. My dad bought me some ***************************** stock years ago in my name. Every tax year I get my tax form from Computershare ************ Providence RI and report same on my taxes. On 7/17/2024 I got a certified mail from Computershare stating if I did fill out their form then all my shares would be turned over to the state of ******. This does not pass smell test. The trail of tears starts with trying to contact or talk to a person in Computershare. I managed one time to get a person I can only assume somewhere in ************ and conversation was non-existent due to my lack of proficiency in Tagalog. I just want to talk to a person. I have tried to talk with HD and that is a dead end. There is no contact path to reach a person and just endless loops of selections that want account number or VIN Numbers. I am so ****** at HD for even getting involved with these grifters at Computershare. At this point all I want to do is dump my shares and wash hands of these people. At this point even my 2001 Heritage HD is on the block Im so frustrated with HD. If you need proof just read reviews of Computershare. Why and How they are allowed to do business in my country is a screenplay in the making for an *********************** movie. I am so desperate and need help but dont even know what to ask for. All I want is my money in my account and some US Attorney to look into Computershare and figure out how they are ripping off Americans.

      Absolute definition of incompetence. As many others have mentioned, trying to transfer deceased relative stock to my name has encountered brick wall after brick wall (more like paper walls). I would not do business with these folks under any circumstances with this level of ineptitude in handling something very simple.

      I have been trying via a court order to get stocks transferred into my name for at least 8 years, with no luck. They want my husbands signature, when I have a court order signed a judge in *********** Co. These people are ridiculous. I jump through hoops, over bridges, and still no luck.
