Ever wondered if there is forgotten money under your name? Now you can find out in just a few minutes.
The MyGOV Malaysia app is a new all in one platform that lets you access multiple government services without jumping between different websites or apps. One of its most useful features is checking ‘Wang Tak Dituntut’.
‘Wang Tak Dituntut’ refers to money that belongs to you but has not been claimed within a certain period. It can come from old bank accounts, investments, dividends, takaful, unpaid salaries, insurance payouts, or other sources.
Some Malaysians have already shared that they discovered surprise amounts after checking. One man posted on Threads that he found RM60 under his name. Another netizen reportedly found RM2,000. Not bad for a quick check on your phone.
