Vault 37 — Refund Recovery FAQ
1. What exactly does Vault 37 do?
We locate, verify, and recover unclaimed money held by government departments, banks, corporations, trustees, insurers, and revenue offices.
If money is owed to you, your family, or your business — we find it and help you claim it.
2. How do I know this isn’t a scam?
Great question — and you should ask it.
Here’s how we operate:
​
-
We are an Australian-registered business (ABN listed in footer).
-
We never charge upfront fees.
-
You only pay after funds are successfully recovered.
-
All documents are signed with proper Authority to Act requirements.
-
Every claim is handled ethically, transparently, and with full compliance.
If there’s no payout, there’s no fee.
Simple.
3. How much does it cost?
Our commission is based on the type of claim:
-
20% — Individual refunds
-
25% — Business refunds
-
20–25% — Government & Institutional refunds (depending on complexity)
No recovery = no charge.
4. What information do you need from me?
Usually just:
​
-
Full name
-
Date of birth (or ACN/ABN for businesses)
-
Previous addresses
-
Any ID documents required by the relevant institution
-
A signed Authority to Act
-
Certification of documents by a JP or authorised officer (for some claims)
We’ll guide you step by step.
5. How long does the refund process take?
It depends on the institution:
-
Banks: 2–6 weeks
-
Government departments: 4–12 weeks
-
Superannuation & insurance: 4–16 weeks
-
Estate-related claims: highly variable (6–20+ weeks)
We update you at every major step.
6. What if nothing is found?
Then nothing happens — and you pay nothing.
You’ll receive a “No Funds Found” email so you have clarity and closure.
7. Do you need my bank login or personal passwords?
Absolutely not — never.
No legitimate refund specialist will ever ask for:
​
-
Online banking login
-
TFN
-
MyGov password
-
2FA codes
-
Pin numbers
We deal directly with institutions through secure, formal channels.
8. Do I have to pay tax on the money recovered?
Most refunds are not taxable, including:
-
Dormant bank accounts
-
ASIC unclaimed money
-
Insurance refunds
-
Revenue office refunds
However, some business-related refunds may have reporting implications.
We recommend checking with your accountant if unsure.
9. What types of refunds can Vault 37 recover?
Almost anything that was paid, lost, forgotten, or left unclaimed:
​
-
Bank accounts
-
Insurance payouts
-
Corporate credits
-
Government fees
-
Revenue office payments
-
Rental bonds
-
Superannuation (some types)
-
Deceased estate balances
-
Dormant business credits
-
Utility & council deposits
-
Lottery & gaming refunds
-
Public trustee funds
If it exists and it’s legally owed — we chase it.

Go to the page and submit your free assessment.
We’ll email you within 24–48 hours with what we find.
11. Do you guarantee results?
We guarantee a full, professional search — but the outcome depends on government/financial databases.
What we can guarantee:
​
-
No upfront fees
-
No charge unless money is successfully recovered
-
Transparent communication
-
Ethical and compliant processing
12. Is my personal information safe?
Yes.
All personal data is handled privately and securely.
We only use your information to:
​
-
Search databases
-
Submit claims
-
Verify identity
-
Communicate with you
We never sell or share your data — ever.
13. Can I do the search myself?
Of course — many people try.
But most don’t know:
​
-
Which national + state + niche databases to check
-
How to verify and cross-match records
-
How to navigate complex corporate/government pathways
-
What documentation each institution requires
-
How to respond when a claim is rejected
That’s why thousands of refunds sit untouched for years.
We do the heavy lifting.
14. What happens after you recover my money?
You receive your payout directly from the institution, not from us.
Once you confirm the deposit, we issue our invoice based on the agreed commission.
