Withdrawal of cheque dividend payments

The interim dividend in September 2023 was the last dividend for which payments to shareholders were made by cheque. From June 2024, any monies payable in connection with your shares will only be payable by direct credit. 

To continue to receive RELX PLC dividends and any other money payable to you in connection with your RELX PLC shares, you must take action and provide your bank or building society account details to the Company’s registrar, Equiniti, so that payments can be made directly to your nominated account.

Full details on how to arrange your direct credit dividend payments are on the Equiniti Website, or you can provide your details via your Shareview Portfolio at www.shareview.co.uk.

If you do not provide your bank or building society account details, your dividend payments will be retained until your bank details are received, after which payment will be credited to your account as soon as possible. Your dividends will not accrue interest while they are being held for you and there may be a fee for Equiniti to reissue payments.
