My last day was end of November also ihr, I haven't heard anything yet.
My dom told me that they stay in your account and are subject to the same rules as existing employees

they will get in contact with you ,, it was about a month after i left they contacted me ,, you have to either transfer them out of the royal mail pot into a separate account or just tell them to sell them ,, its a very simple procedure

Same here - once you confirm you want to sell them they will act within 48 hours and you have 28 days to confirm, so if you are price watching another weeks wait might get you another few quid (or a few less ).
We wish to serve - but we will not be servile
