I'm hoping somebody can advise. Several years ago a relative died. I was contacted by the police and made funeral arrangements and was involved in the inquest.
A heir hunter has contacted me saying that the estate has now been advertised on the bona vacantia site. I thought this was odd as the council and police have my details. When I queried this with the bona vacantia department they told me my relatives estate is not with them at all.
After more digging around i contacted a soliciters called farrer and co who seem to be involved. They said it has been referred to the bona department. It hasnt, and doesn t appear on their list at all. I feel that something funny is going on. How do I find out who is actually dealing with this?
