Anyway to find all bank/savings accounts in one's name?

Hi guys

Over the years I have had a few current and savings accounts. I may have lost tra k of some of these. I am Experian customer and can see my credit report with some accounts listed.

Could I be missing some, suspect so? Any way to be sure that I can check all known accounts?

Thanks

    Credit score like experian may have those listed. But actually can't remember if it was for credit cards only or not.

    Bank accounts are only likely to be listed if they have a credit facility associated with them.

    ClearScore - credit report app (free), shows all current account and credit card accounts under your name (doesn’t show savings accounts)

    If the account doesn't have a credit facility, in most cases it's not going to be reported to the credit reference agencies.

    I discovered the hard way that banks stop paying interest to inactive accounts and eventually close your account, usually giving whatever funds to a charity of their choice...

    I have 2 accounts with £1 in, to keep them open, haven’t used either, in 15+ years ..

    but I also have an ISA with £6000 in, if you don’t put money in every year, it gets frozen, and now being homebound, I guess I can never unlock it
