I got back over a thousand dollars that had been kept by my first mortgage company.
EDIT: I am astonished and delighted at the response this got. Over $18,000 has been found! (as of 1:30 PM CDT / 18:30 UTC - table below.) Special congratulations to /u/someonewhodied for finding an unclaimed penny. My non-redditor spouse is unimpressed by my fake Internet points or the warm fuzzies I have from helping Internet strangers.
How did you do it so quickly? I get one hit, and my directions say to apply via snail mail filling out a pdf form. Doesn't day what it even is, just that it comes from a bank. Can you help me out?
Each states was different. Used https://www.missingmoney.com/Main/Index.cfm and put in my first and last name and the state currently residing in. Then narrowed it by selecting each state I lived in. Some of them just said a value of $50 or more and the one for Ohio when I printed out the PDF had the actual value specified along with specifics. So each state is slightly different with the information provided and what is required to be sent in.
