Thank you for taking the time to leave such a detailed review. We're delighted you found the registration process straightforward and even more pleased that Gretel was able to identify a potential match.

We hope everything goes smoothly with the company concerned. Thanks again for giving Gretel a try.

We respectfully disagree with your characterisation of Gretel as a scam.

Identity verification and the collection of personal information such as address history and ID documents are necessary because we help people locate potentially valuable financial assets and must ensure users are who they claim to be. These checks also help protect against fraud and unauthorised access.

We are transparent about how personal data is used and processed. Gretel does not sell personal information to third parties. Any data sharing is strictly limited to providing the service, verifying identity, preventing fraud, and meeting legal and regulatory obligations.

Receiving no matches does not mean the service is not working. It simply means that no matching records were identified within the data currently shared by participating financial institutions. As many of the positive reviews on this page demonstrate, Gretel has helped thousands of people reconnect with lost pensions, investments and policies — in some cases uncovering assets they had no idea existed.

We're sorry Gretel wasn't able to find a match for you at this time, but that is very different from the service being a scam.

Thank you for such a brilliant review. Finding a pension worth £71,000 that had been forgotten about for 40 years is an amazing outcome; we're so pleased Gretel was able to help point you in the right direction.

Thanks again for sharing your experience — and enjoy your fantastic find!

Thank you for the fantastic review! We're delighted Gretel was able to help track down your missing pensions so quickly.

Helping people reconnect with forgotten assets is exactly why we exist, so it's always great to hear success stories like yours. Thanks for taking the time to share your experience.

Thanks for your feedback. We understand why the timing might have raised concerns, but we categorically do not sell personal data or share email addresses for marketing purposes. If we did, we simply wouldn't be able to operate under the regulatory and data protection standards that apply to our service.

Unfortunately, spam emails are something many people experience, and a coincidence in timing can understandably create suspicion. However, we have no evidence that your email activity was connected to your Gretel registration.

We're also sorry that Gretel didn't identify any matches for you. A lack of results doesn't mean the service isn't working — it simply means no matching records were found within the data currently shared by our participating partners.

Additional response to edits:

We'd like to clarify how Gretel works. When you register, your details are not sent out to companies or third parties for matching. Instead, participating organisations securely provide their data to Gretel and all matching takes place within our own environment.

It's also important to note that email addresses are not used as a matching data point. Your email address is used only to create and manage your Gretel account and to communicate with you about the service.

We appreciate why the timing of the increase in unwanted emails has caused concern and genuinely, we are at a loss to understand why this has occurred.

It’s great to hear the process was quick and easy from start to finish. Thanks so much for sharing your experience and enjoy that well-deserved surprise!

Thank you so much for sharing this. We know how difficult it can be managing a loved one’s estate, especially when paperwork is incomplete or unclear, so we’re really pleased Gretel was able to help uncover accounts that may otherwise have remained hidden.

It’s wonderful to hear the beneficiaries benefited too and we’re glad the process and updates felt quick and straightforward throughout.

Thanks for your feedback. On the first point, if no results were returned it simply means no matching records have been identified in the data currently shared with Gretel’s partner financial institutions. It doesn’t indicate missing or incorrect information and many users do receive matches as new providers join over time.

On data sharing, Gretel does NOT sell personal data to third parties. When you register for Gretel, we are transparent that we process personal data in order to provide the service. Under data protection law (including GDPR), this includes using your information to: verify your identity and help prevent fraud, search for potential matches with participating financial institutions, communicate with you, and support the delivery and improvement of the service. In some cases, we may also share relevant data with trusted third parties such as financial institutions, credit reference agencies, and fraud prevention agencies, specifically for identity verification and to help detect or prevent criminal activity. These activities are all carried out under strict legal bases such as contractual necessity, legal obligation, and legitimate interests, as set out in our Privacy Notice.

Any data use or sharing is strictly limited to providing the service, maintaining security, and meeting regulatory requirements.

We appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts.

Thanks for taking the time to leave feedback. We’re sorry the experience hasn’t met your expectations so far.

The issue you experienced with address lookup isn’t because Gretel can’t recognise old addresses, but because we’ve recently seen extremely high demand following significant media coverage, which has unfortunately affected some address lookup functionality at busy times.

Gretel also relies on the information entered by users to match against records shared by participating financial institutions, so adding as much address history and detail as possible really does improve the chances of finding older pensions and policies. A National Insurance number alone is often not enough to identify historical accounts, particularly where provider records are incomplete or out of date.

We appreciate your patience while we continue expanding both our coverage and platform capacity, and we hope you’ll keep Gretel running in the background in case future matches are identified.

Thank you so much for your kind words. We’re delighted to hear our team was able to help with your pension search and provide useful guidance to support you.

Thanks for your feedback. Not finding a match doesn’t necessarily mean there aren’t any pensions to find — it simply means no records have been identified from the data currently shared with Gretel by participating providers.

Not all pension companies are partnered with us yet, although our coverage continues to grow.

Once registered, Gretel keeps searching automatically in the background, so if new matching records become available in future, you’ll be notified straight away.

We’re delighted Gretel was able to reconnect you with a personal pension you didn’t even know existed — and even better that it turned out to be worth a significant amount.

Thank you so much for your kind words and for highlighting how Gretel keeps searching in the background over time. Reviews like this mean a lot to the whole team.

Thank you for your thoughtful review. We know remembering years of old addresses can be a challenge, so you’re definitely not alone there.

Even if there aren’t any matches yet, we’re really pleased Gretel is giving you some reassurance that anything overlooked still has a chance of being found in future. We’re also glad you’ve been able to use the service to help with your father’s records too.

Thanks again for taking the time to share your experience.

Thanks for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful review. We’re really pleased you found the registration process straightforward and easy to follow.

You’ve summed Gretel up perfectly — even if nothing appears initially, once registered the system keeps searching in the background and will let you know if a match is found in future. We appreciate your support and are glad you think it’s a great idea!

We’re sorry you weren’t able to complete registration. If you experienced a technical issue, our support team would have been happy to help resolve it.

To clarify, Gretel does not simply “pass your details on” to partner companies. We use the information provided to search against records shared securely by participating financial institutions, and matches are only returned where a connection can be identified.

While not every provider is partnered with Gretel yet, many users have successfully been reunited with lost pensions and other assets through the service, and our coverage continues to grow.

Thanks for your feedback. Gretel does not generate or store passwords created by your browser or device, so if Chrome saved a password incorrectly or auto-filled something unexpected, that can unfortunately cause login issues during verification.

This is usually straightforward to resolve, and our support team would be very happy to help you complete registration and access your account.
