Do you know who they put the pensions with (which company)? If you do you can just give them a call and start the process.

If you don’t know who they were paid into there was something on the government website to help you track who they were with. They may all be with different companies.

Thanks Ben, sounds complicated..hopefully they were all with the same one.

Would it be wise to contact former employers to find out?

go to the bank with a weapon and say you want your money.

Yeah, you can try ask former employers too who they put them with.

If you still have old paperwork/contracts it may also say on there.
