  • Thinking about other ways to avoid brokers being able to unDRS I found that one may also just change account address details:

    “So basically, brokers aren’t supposed to do this, but can, and if they do, there’s really nothing stopping them since there’s no check first to see if there was permission from the account holder. […] In the meantime, as suggested by the reps, if possible, change some account info so it doesn’t match what your broker has on file, like changing Street to St or adding a middle initial.” (https://www.reddit.com/r/computershare/comments/xfcpq3/comment/ioltp8n/)

    Also on Twitter there is a discussion about “stop trades” and one of the things it would help with is brokers being able to unDRS. Either a new account or changing address details would do the trick also.
