The City of Danville’s Treasurer’s Office, along with the Virginia Department of the Treasury, is bringing its semi-annual unclaimed property virtual call event on Thursday, July 11, and Friday, July 12, to help local citizens who might be owed funds they don’t know about.
Since 2019, this event has helped citizens to find over $1,047,811 in unclaimed funds.
Customers can call 1-833-302-0704 from 10 am to 4 pm on Thursday and Friday to have staff check their name for missing money. Customers may also visit the website at www.vaMoneySearch.org.
The State Treasury’s Unclaimed Property Division operates essentially as a centralized lost and found. It handles unclaimed money and property turned over by companies when they have lost track of the rightful owner.
Unclaimed property can include utility deposits, customer refunds, unpaid wages, money from insurance policies, securities and investments, bank accounts, safe deposit box contents, credit balances, refund or dividend checks, tangible property, and more.
