There's a bit of chat on various forums Filo but if you have been at the same address for a while it can't be a very close relative or you would either know or you would be found I would think. Fingers crossed.https://www.unclaimedestates.com/blog/1067/what-happens-to-unclaimed-estates
It's not exactly an uncommon surname though, is it?Is there anything to link your family to Middlesex? Have you got anyone with that name in your family tree?I'd imagine that the company has just written to loads of people on the electoral roll with the same name on the off chance that one of them has a valid claim in which case they will take a % of the claim.
There was a programme on tv aptly called Heir Hunters a few years back and the company featured used to take about 40% commission if you signed with them, so I’d be very careful signing anything before you’ve looked into it closer .Have you thought about doing your own investigation into this person or maybe contacting Citizens Advice etc, houses and land in Middlesex are worth a few quid and that’s why these firms get involved
