We’re now using dormant accounts to help good causes
Lots of people hold savings accounts they no longer use, or have forgotten about. Often the balance of the account is just a few pounds or pence.
We’re putting those pennies to good use.
So if you have a Coventry account you haven’t used in more than 15 years, with less than £10 in it, we’ve given the money to one of the seven charities on this page. We’ve partnered with them because they support our goals of helping people who need a place to live, as well as those who are isolated or vulnerable.
So far, £315,000 that would otherwise have been lying in forgotten accounts has gone towards making a difference to people’s lives.
However, if you hold one of these accounts and you’d like your money back, it’s no problem — you can ask us to return it.
Are you looking for an old account that has a larger amount of money in (with us or another building society or bank)? Try www.mylostaccount.org.uk or www.bsa.org.uk for help in finding it.
