Pro search-Unclaimed entitlements

Firstly,I apologise if this is in the wrong place!

My brother recently received a letter from a company called Pro search.They are looking for relations of my late grandmother as they are working for a major corporation who have unclaimed entitlements in her name.

After doing some checking,he decided that although legit,they work like the PPI people and leave you with a check for very little.

I have also received a letter from them,but would like to take it further,but not with this company.Trouble is,I have no idea who the major corporation is.I have no desire to be sent a check for a tenner if Im actually owed a grand or something.

Is there any way of proceeding without using pro search?

Any advice would be great.Might be worth adding that Im in Scotland,so laws etc maybe different.

thanks
