Find Unclaimed Money or Property
I recently did a search and found $62.19 was owed to me from an old Upromise account. I also found $43.91 under my husband’s name due to him from Allstate. All we had to do to get our money was print out a claim form, attach a copy of our driver’s license and mail it to the Texas Comptroller’s Office. Easy Peasy!
And I was so excited to find money for myself, I started inputting my friend’s and relative’s names:
- I found $43 for my buddy Brett owed to him from Paypal.
- Our neighbor Nathan had over $100 waiting to be claimed from State Farm.
- My friend Jessica also had money owed her from State Farm. She’s got $122 coming to her!
I felt like like the Money Fairygodmother when I told them how to claim their missing money.
