We are delighted to have been mentioned again by Martin Lewis, this time on ITV’s Good Morning Britain.

It has been wonderful to see so many people using Gretel to search for lost pensions, savings, investments and other accounts.

Even better, we are already seeing more reconnections.

There is a huge amount of money still waiting to be found across the UK, and we are proud to be helping people reconnect with money that already belongs to them

Big news! Gretel has been mentioned in Martin Lewis’ weekly MoneySavingExpert newsletter.

Even better, one couple who used Gretel after seeing Martin’s advice found a lost pension worth more than £60,000.

As we know, there are billions sitting in forgotten pensions, bank accounts, savings, investments and Child Trust Funds. Some of it could belong to you, your family or your friends.

So please spread the word.

Ask your parents, grandparents, grown-up children, siblings, friends and colleagues: have they checked for lost money?

It is free to search with Gretel, and once you are registered, we keep searching for you.

A few minutes today could help someone find money they did not know they had.

The Billions 4 Millions campaign, led by Gretel in partnership with the UK’s financial services sector, only started in January. The goal is to locate £1 billion in lost cash by 2026, but an incredible £700 million has already been recovered in just three months. Help spread the word on finding lost and forgotten cash. https://www.gretel.co.uk/news-for-you/are-you-missing-out-on-lost-cash-%C2%A3700-million-found-in-just-three-months-how-to-find-it

Know someone heading off to university this autumn? Don’t forget to check for a Child Trust Fund!

Over 670,000 Child Trust Funds are still unclaimed in the UK and one could belong to a student you know. With the average account worth over £2,200, that’s money which could help with rent, books, or even cover a term’s food shop.
