Hey,

I'm trying to figure out where a large chunk of money came when it was deposited into the UK personal account of someone we're suing who has been a bit naughty. It may have been a Dubai/UAE account where the money originated from or even another UK bank account. On the British bank statement it says:

Funds trf 20412092xH000027, [name of individual concerned][name and address of individuals Ltd company]

(I've replaced a digit with the letter x)

How do I find what country/bank this money originated from? Is the "code" above significant to those in the know?

Cheers

The IBAN should be on the British Bank Statement, or available by contacting the Bank. IBANs are made up as follows:

The IBAN consists of up to 34 alphanumeric characters:

country code using ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 - two letters,
check digits - two digits, and
Basic Bank Account Number (BBAN) - up to 30 alphanumeric characters that are country-specific.[1]
