After successfully completing the DRS of my GME shares, I called TDA to ask about transferring my DWAC shares. Last week I learned my DWAC and DWACW were successfully transferred out but that DWACU was not transferable and it would cost $500 to the certificate issued.
TDA told me they went to Computershare but after 5 days they were still not in my account. Today I get a letter from a company called “ Continental Stock Transfer & Trust” telling me THEY have my shares.
After going off on TDA customer service I looked up this new company and find they have been around since 2000. But if my account number represents the number of customers they have then something is not right. Any insight on this company is appreciated.
Thank you. I specifically asked TDA if they could go to Computershare and they said yes AND they confirmed today that’s where they sent them. Now I have no confidence in TDA and thinking about moving my account.
I wish I could help more, but I’m new to this. I heard Fidelity was pretty good, zero cost for trading and opening an account and no fees. May be worth a look.
Also, I read in someone’s post here that ComputerShare held GME shares specifically. Of course, from the filing, I learned that Continental Stock & Transfer will hold the DWAC and DWACW shares.
I’m going to look for that post I read. It was very informative.
Found it! u/Blurpy was the anon with the great info.

I'm with Fidelity and so far see no issues. I asked a rep about obtaining a physical stock certificate, and he was prepared to walk me through the process (which he said goes through ComputerShare) but I hadn't completed my purchase at the time of the call.
