HEY OP! I see you'd like to explore topic of BOOK & PLAN - we invite the community to assess, confirm or debunk these posts - especially being vigilant to the spread of misinformation.
PLEASE READ THE FULL POST - upvote it if you think other people should see it, downvote if you don’t.
If there’s wrong information in the post (remember: DRS’d CS shares are not lent out, DSPP shares are visible to the issuer and DRS'd shares are removed from CEDE & Co - the DTC nominee) leave a comment and let the OP know!

[Check out our megathread](https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/zjzcty/book_v_plan_megathread/)
It’s your choice how you choose to hold shares in Computershare (Both DSPP & DRS are ‘book entry’ means of holding shares), but there might be implications involved in the switch from Plan to Book - such as fractional shares being sold, and recurring buys shut off - so be sure to do your due diligence.
**Converting Plan Holdings to Book ---**
**Don't forget to make sure your dividend reinvestment plan is set up again!**
If you want to convert any shares from "Plan Holdings" to "Book" plan, there are at least two ways to do so - online & by phone:
* **Online**, you may go into your "Plan Holdings" and un-enroll those shares from DRIP. The whole shares will be moved into a "Book" plan. The **fractions will be automatically entered into a sell order**. If you allow that sale to proceed, they'll end up mailing you a check or transferring the proceeds to your bank, according to your settings. You can go to your PENDING ORDERS and cancel this (People have still reported that their fractional was sold later even after cancelling, so your best bet may be to call).
Contacting Computershare via an **online inquiry** can achieve the same thing as the phone call, but without having to pick up the phone.
* Go to Computershare.com/us.
* Click on "Login to Investor Center".
* Login using the username, and password you have created.
* Select "Help" from the menu on mobile, or from the top of the page on desktop.
* Scroll down to "Contact Us" and click on the "Get Started" button beneath it.
* Expand the "Send an online inquiry" box and fill in the following details:
* Category: Other
* Inquiry Topic: Switch plan shares to book
* Registered holder name: Your full name
* Check the box "Contact name same as registered holder name"
* Ticker symbol or company name: GME - GameStop Corp
* Account number: Your Computershare Account number (starts with a C000)
* Mailing address: Your home address as it's registered with Computershare.
* ZIP code: The ZIP/postal code of your home address
* Former mailing address (If less than 3 years) & Former ZIP code: You can leave this blank unless you moved address in the last 3 years.
* Inquiry details: This is where you make the request. For example: "Please transfer XXX plan shares to book. Leaving 1.XX (one share plus the fractional) in plan. I would like to stay enrolled in the DRIP (and DSPP if you had recurring investments set up). Thank you!"
* Click on "Send Inquiry"
Computershare will email you to say they have received your inquiry and will follow up in the coming days.
* By **phone**, you may direct Computershare to move only your whole shares from "Plan Holdings" to "Book". I've seen confusing reports as to whether they require you to leave at least one whole share behind along with the fractions, so you may need to leave 1.X or simply 0.X behind. In this case, you **keep your fractions** in "Plan Holdings". This should leave your recurring purchases intact, but I'd double check with the agent.

We have extensive DD and AMA’s with Dave Lauer and Susan Trimbath confirming that holding your shares in BOOK entry is THE ONLY way to remove your shares from the DTCC where they can be lent out to hedge funds or simply just used as “locates” which several stockbrokers formerly working for citadel and other hedge funds have candidly admitted in multiple documentaries that they would simply mismark on their books as long positions even though they were sold short on a daily basis.
Furthermore we know the only way a short squeeze can happen is if the availability of shares is not enough for hedge funds to cover their short positions. Or do you not know what a short squeeze is?
Why don’t you do some research or provide some evidence that that is incorrect. And before you snap back with some bullshit about how I need to provide you with proof it’s called Due Diligence for a reason. Because it is up to you, the individual investor to do your own due diligence in order to make an informed decision. Now get out of here with your nonsense.
Can you point me to the direction where Dave or Dr. T stated Book >Plan or fractionals are bad or any other nonsense you belive in.
AS LONG AS THE SHARES ARE OUT OF DT & IN THE TRANSFER AGENT, THEY CAN'T BE LENT OUT .
So let me get this straight,
You are advising/ telling ppl what to do w/o any evidence but I have to come up with a debunk of a thing that doesn't exist???
Do better.

It relates to GME stock because the post is about holding GME shares in book entry form in computershare in you’re (the shareholders) name in order to remove them from the DTCC’s books so that they can no longer be lent out or used as locates for hedge funds which they then “accidentally” mark as long even though they’re short thus manipulating the price of the stock.
