About Customer Overpayments

What Are Customer Overpayments?

Customer overpayments happen when you pay more than you owe and the refund never reaches you. Common examples include utility deposits returned after moving or insurance premium adjustments when you cancel mid-term.

These overpayments become unclaimed when companies can't locate you after address changes, name changes, or simply because small amounts get overlooked in busy lives. Young adults who move frequently and seniors managing multiple accounts are most likely to have unclaimed overpayments.

The average California claim is $46.92, though amounts range from under $10 to several thousand dollars. You'll need photo ID and proof of your connection to the paying company to claim your overpayment.
