No, they will be listing on JP Jenkins, which is now connected to Winterflood and in turn to something like 40 UK brokers. Trading is on a matched bargain basis so no market makers involved - you just need to be matched off against a willing buyer.

That sounds right. Shares are either bought in your name or held in a nominee account. The registrar will likely charge a fee for issuing a replacement certificate.

T212 serves a purpose but seems flawed for smaller cap stocks. I tried to place an order for ONC.L. It sat pending for almost a week and by the time they found a counterparty, the price had risen 20% by which time I no longer had sufficient funds in the account. Whilst I could have specified a £ amount to buy that would defeat the point. Their execution policy seems to be using MTFs to keep the costs down. No problem at all with larger cap companies.

Slightly tangential but Directa Plus might be worth a look? They topped the board yesterday up 48%. They have a component that is used in Lithium Ion batteries and a partner made a big call yesterday in battery efficiency. https://www.thearmchairtrader.com/directa-plus-panoply-holdings-quiz/
