Resources

Resources for finding lost insurance policies:

Lost Policy.com
The sole purpose of this web site is to provide a fast, easy, inexpensive search service for unpaid life insurance policies issued as long as 25 years ago.

MIB Solutions
The quick, easy and cost-effective way to help locate lost insurance policies of a deceased spouse or family member.

Life insurance policy benefits often go unclaimed, for example, because it's up to heirs to notify the insurance company when a policyholder dies, and virtually no effort is made to find lost beneficiaries.
