Do you need to buy paid up shares to get free shares?

[I AM]

Hello everyone,

Does anyone know if you MUST purchase the paid up shares to get the free shares?

I could not get my money out of my Warka account, and I missed the purchase of BIME paid up shares.
Do I still get the free shares, or is it a one to one free/paid up.

Thanks!!

No, you don't have to opt for Paid Up Shares, Free Shares are based on your prior year holdings for that company not on any purchase of paid up, be aware it my take some more time to get them be patient.
