Unclaimed Money for the Surname Preferred in California

Search every Preferred record free No account, no card. Most people find nothing — the check costs nothing either.

Where the Preferred records are

The city is the last address the reporting company had, which is usually where the person lived when the account went quiet — not necessarily where they live now.

Who reported it

These are the companies that handed the money to the State after they could no longer reach the owner. Recognising one is a strong hint that a record is yours.

• Lifeprint Health Inc. 45 records
• Aetna Life Insurance Company 16 records
• Stanford Health Care 11 records
• Ucsf Stanford Health Care 10 records
• Federal Express Corporation 9 records
• Microsoft Corporation 7 records
• Laboratory Corp. Of America Holdings And 7 records
• City Of Hope Medical Foundation 5 records

First names recorded with Preferred

Records are keyed exactly as the company typed them decades ago. If yours is not here, try a middle name, an initial, or a former surname — that is the single most common reason a search comes back empty.
