Most brokers will add a entry to your portfolio for the number of shares you are entitled to.
You then need to click acceptance (online account of course) or it will be declined at the expiry date.
If you don't want the full allocatio you will be able to accept fewer.
You can ask for more too, and these may or may not be granted from unaccepted shares elsewhere.
You pay up front and get a refund much later if the full requirement is not granted.
Sometimes there is no transaction charge by your broker! But stamp duty is still applicable?
For those with telephone accounts , expect a letter from your broker at some stage.
