I recently posted a question regarding some stock certificates we found belonging to my mother in law who recently passed. We now have 3 (not just 2 like my OP stated) certificates from Walmart, and all 3 certificates are for 63 shares. They are from June of 1992. I received tons of comments and I'm extremely grateful for everyone's input! Me or my husband are completely lost about this sort of stuff.
A couple comments mentioned calling Walmarts transfer department, but I'm having a hard time figuring out exactly what the phone number is. Another comment mentioned their website, but it just says to contact Computershare which from what I understand reading the comments, may cost more than it should.
Could we call Charles and Schwab with my MIL's information, and the information on the certificates to make sure they haven't been cashed in? Im almost certain she bought these back in 1992 and put them away to leave my husband and his 2 sisters and there was never a situation that would have possibly resulted her in needing to cash them in but we want to make sure .
I decided to create a post on this subreddit for people who are trying to figure out how to access their Computershare account after enrolling into ASPP. This step will allow you to create a Computershare PIN.
EDIT: I have found another simpler way. Go to Savings & Retirement: Retirement Planning & 401k Info (walmart.com) and scroll and click on "my Walmart stock (@computershare)" and it should lead you to a page that allows you to create a new PIN.
Complicated way to do it.
call 866-459-9939 to reset your pin. You will need your WIN, social security number and a piece of paper because the automated phone system will instruct you to type a new PIN and will also ask you to set up a security question/answer.
Link to where I found the phone number.
2. go to computershare.com/Walmart and click "log in" under Associate Stock
Purchase Plan. and click "log in and create username"
3. (I'm really sorry when I say this, but I forgot if I used my social security as my username or my WIN, when I first created an account, but it was either one of them) * I will fix this once people let me know which ones worked for them.
choose username type and type in username (WIN or SSN) and for the PIN, type in the one you created over the phone.
After that you should be in the process of creating a username and a new PIN.
Hopefully this helped you, let me know if I'm missing any details and I will add them.
