    The service is great as I didnt know that there were funds owed to me. My only complaint is that it took 4 months to complete!

    Payne Richards recovered funds that I had tried, unsuccessfully to recover on a number of occasions. The process was easy and their fee was reasonable!

    Payne Richards contacted me about my unclaimed funds with the State. The sent me a form to collect the funds on my behalf for a 20% fee. Negatives, why was mine 20%, but oh well, I approved them moving forward as I would not have known about the unclaimed funds.Secondly I received no information who, what, when and why? Where is the fund coming from? Finally you will need to contact them for updates, they find unclaimed money, ensure you sign so they can get paid rightfully so for handling to paperwork and no worries about you really. Check is sent from the sounds of it and you only find out by reaching out to them. (Track for yourself)Never the less I received a text a few days ago to write a review, but I never received a check. I called today to check status. I was finally advised that I should have received a check mid December. I am still waiting to receive a check for $35.00. (Just found out how much the check is for today on the call after contacting them)

    When The bonds matured, I was unable to locate where to go. I did a lot of researching, but was unable to turn them in this firm was able to locate and process everything. I wish I had known about them before.

    I was contacted by Payne Richards re my unclaimed funds with the State that I was unaware of. I didt have the necessary information to claim the funds, so I authorized them to try to collect the funds on my behalf for a 10% fee. Fortunately, they were successful and I ultimately received a check from the State. My only negative is that it took several months with no communication from Payne Richards before receiving the check. However, it was only 2 days after I received the check when they contacted me for this review!

    This business is NOT A SCAM! At first, I thought it was when I received a letter from them on 11/16/2023. They said I had unclaimed monies from a real estate transaction that happened many years ago involving my homeowner's insurance. I didn't believe it, so I called the insurance company and sure enough, I was owed money. It turns out that the insurance co sent the money to the state of CA. I've never lived in ** and I had to send in some paperwork to prove to ** that it was my money. It took a while going back and forth, but I worked with ******* at Payne Richards and she was great! We communicated mostly by email, but she was always available when I called. Last week, 10/5/24, I received my check for $696. It took about 10 months, but they gave me a timeframe in the original letter, so I knew it would take some time. As stated, Payne Richards took 10% from the gross amount. I am thrilled that they recovered my money. I am happy to report they are not a SCAM!
