If a ticker change does not involve a split the shares should be tradeable
the next market day. EG., if XXXX changes to YYYY then YYYY should be tradeable the next day. One may have to phone their Broker to ensure they have processed the non-split ticker change.

You would be correct if a ticker had the suffix D and then the company changed the entire ticker after the 20 market days that the suffix D was attached IF the dividended shares were still not sent by the transfer agent to the Brokers. EG., if Brokers had not received shares of XXXXD then even if the company changes the ticker to YYYY after the 20 market days that it had been XXXXD then YYYY would not be tradeable until the Brokers have received the dividended shares.

Note: Reverse or forward splits are a dividend so the suffix D stands for dividend and is applied for 20 market days to ALL non-Exchange stocks, ie., only to the OTC stocks. National Exchange stocks do not apply the suffix D when they reverse or forward split their stocks.
