From a thread somewhere on MSE (sorry i can't remember who posted it!) i downloaded a form from the National Savings and Investments to search for lost pass books etc. I knew that I had an 2 accounts with them when I was a child and thought that there was around £50 in it.
Today I have received a passbook with... wait for it..... a grand total of £697.55!!!!! Wow!! :j :j :j :j
I am going to put this money towards my savings to pay off my loan repayment or my CC when it comes to the end of its 0% period.
A huge thank to whoever posted the orginal link - thank you so much!!!!!!!
