Asked HL and this is what they said
Thank you for your message.
As you state, Premier Oil has recently undertaken a merger with Chrysaor Inc, resulting in a new line of stock being issued under the name of Harbour Energy plc. This became effective on the 1 April 2021.
When a change like this takes place, we have to wait for the new shares to be issued to us via CREST, the system used for the settlement of UK and overseas shares. Until we have the new shares, the stock/price displayed may not reflect your holding and trading on your existing holding will be unavailable.
Whilst we don’t have a firm time frame as to when these will be received, we anticipate it will be in the near future. As soon as we receive the shares we’ll allocate them to clients’ accounts as quickly as possible.
Harbour Energy plc is now trading so you're able to buy additional shares should you wish, you just can't trade on your current holding until we receive the new shares as detailed above.
