Need to check stock history on First Data Corp

[Linda Mathey]

I always used to use Capital Changes Reporter but since I am on my own I do not have that service. I am looking for a free service that will allow me to track stock splits, spin off's, etc. on stocks. Specifically right now I have a client that bought First Data Corp in 1994 and now owns more shares than the original purchase. They cannot remember selling any shares. Before I allocate 100% of the original purchase price to the shares I would like to be able to track splits.

Can anyone help?

You may want to try www.bigcharts.com. I use that for all my historical stock pricing. Not sure if it has information on splits, spin-offs etc.

You might try their investor relations dept.

Yahoo finance had very good price and dividend history as well as splits. As for spin-offs, I usually go to that company's website and look for investor relations.
