It is my husband's family not mine

Look if we receive anything we are totally comfortable. It is more intrigue as to the process than demand. We are not wanting to disparage the process but understand it as it so different than our own.

If it was in New Zealand I would just want to get a death certificate to establish if there was an actual relationship and of course a residue estate,

Sounds complicated. yes it is!

I think Jebber that the list is more historic. The money appears at that point to have been sent to your treasury. I'm not sure but it appears if someone dies intestate but has a solicitor / lawyer they might trigger a search for family members

Firstly I think its more recent than the type of estate that's listed

Also I've looked at the iannounce site but if she didn't have close family no one probably was there for her to put in a notice

Thanks
Julia.

Hi

Many thanks Maddy the references to other searches was interesting.

We have looked up the list but her name was not there. We gained the impression that she had only recently died and thought that maybe a lawyer might have instructed the company to locate relatives.

They seem to charge 30 % plus VAT for their services so we want to be sure. The charging regime appears large if it was to be a reasonable sized estate but very small if it was to be a smaller one. Is this flat fee structure the norm in the UK.

The good thing is they are not asking for fees up front or bank detail which would have scam written all over it.

Just seeking advice because its quite different from the way things are done "down under"

Kind regards,
Julia

We have been contacted by a UK heir hunting firm  Estate Research. We live in new Zealand. We were told my late father in laws cousin had died intestate. How can you check it out as it is recent. We have checked out using records that a person of this name was a cousin

To work out whether its a scam can we check any death index or see if a death certificate exists in her name

Many thanks
Julia

How do I go about getting the test done? I thought it was better for the male lime. My mother was the McDonell / MacDonald

Kind regards
