[QUOTE="Bill V, post: 992160, member: 54538"] Last night I saw a news report talking about www.missingmoney.com. When a company owes you money, and they aren't able to find you, they're required in most states to turn that money over to the state's unclaimed properties division. That group then holds the funds, and maintains a record of ownership, should someone claim it. In recent years, most (but not all) states (and Canadian provinces) have banded together to have a central database of those records at www.missingmoney.com. People can go there, enter their names, and search for possible funds which are owed them. After the report, I checked into it--and found that a former employer of mine apparently owes me some money, and had lost track of me after I moved. The site doesn't tell you how much is owed (in some cases, including mine, it will give a general ">$100" or "<$100", but that's the extent of it), but if you file a claim through the site, they'll cut you a check once they are able to verify things. It's definitely worth a look! When you check it out, be sure to look under-- --any states you have lived in or done business in at any time in the past --any maiden names or other names --check for any relatives, especially deceased relatives. I found a great aunt of mine who died about three years ago, having two accounts each worth ">$100". Apparently her estate executors missed them. The site provides instructions on how heirs can place claims in those situations. Have fun hunting! Bill [/QUOTE]
