Posts: 364	Government raiding dormant bank accounts I wasn't sure where the best place was to post this thread, so if in the wrong place, perhaps it could be moved? The government is planning to take any funds in dormant bank accounts (15 yrs or over) and move them to a central fund. If the money is not then claimed, it will be used for for community projects, charities and even the Olympic Fund. There are various articles to be found when Googling, eg Treasury raid on forgotten accounts \| Uk News \| News \| Telegraph There is also a petition: Petition to: Stop the raiding of dormant bank accounts. I know that myself and members of my family, including my children, have several accounts like these and will be digging out their details and getting MY money before the MIB do!
