Unclaimed Money

So many times I have heard on the news or today tonight about 'millions in unclaimed money'. Well tonight we have a great experience. My sister in law just recieved a letter from a company called 'Money Discovery' saying that she may have unclaimed money of $1240.47. They advised that they would charge an 8% recovery fee. Now on the whole there is no problem with this idea - infact I think it is a great business and one that I may look into doing myself, BUT instead of using the company we just looked it up ourselves on http://www.osr.nsw.gov.au/benefits/ucm/find/ (for NSW) another great place to look is https://www.edge.asic.gov.au/unclaimed/simplequery.html Check it out - could save you 8%.
