Tracking Down an Old Pension

#198857

Postby pds2008 » February 4th, 2019, 4:08 pm

Hi

During the early 2000's I became enrolled in a Personal Pension Plan administered by Sun Life. My employer was Capita and the arrangement began when we were TUPE transferred from PwC and its non contributory Scheme to Capita - as a result this ring faced fund was created for the transferees and became a contributory scheme. After about 4-5 years I left and thought nothing more of it but made contributions for that period, as did my employer.

Is it worth tracking the administrators down, and does anyone have any suggestions of how to proceed. I am firmly in the clueless camp on this topic - so advice would be appreciated.

Regards Yell

Now folded into Aviva.

Contact them with details of yourself and former employer. I would have thought they should be sending you periodic statements of what it's worth.

My wife recently used this service to track down an old Aegon pension. It was very effective, both easy to use and a fast response.
