Hi
Am hoping someone can mabe give me some advice.
I have come across a certificate of membership for a pension scheme for C & A when I was employed with them over 14 years ago.
The pension is through Orbis Pension Trustees, 64 North Row, London, W1a 2ax. tel 071-629 1244. have tried the phone no - not recognised, have googled Orbis, cant find anything to do with pensions.
Just want to let them know my new address, and have an up to date forecast, (only a tiny pension).
Do any of you clever people have any ideas how i could contact them?
If all else fails, I will just write to the address above and hope they are still there.
Thanks.

Last heard of being dealt with by the Pru (about 2003).
If no luck there, try
www.thepensionservice.gov.uk/atoz/atozdetailed/pensiontracing.aspIt only takes one tree to make a thousand matches, it only takes one match to burn a thousand trees. As well, the cars are all passing me, bright lights are flashing me.

Did you have any luck? I am also trying to trace my C&A pension. I only worked there for a few years but I don't like the thought of there being any money out there in my name that I am not claiming!
Thanks, Joanne0 -

These shops are still to be found in Europe. It withdrew from the UK around 2000 I believe.0 -
Don't mock C & A: I bought a rather fine cord jacket from them once.Free the dunston one next time too.0

I used to work for C & A Modes as it used to be called , I loved their stores there really isn't anything like it in the High Street nowadays.. I wonder if I have a pension from those days.... I only worked there for around 4 yrs so I guess it would be trivial..#6 of the SKI-ers Club :j

As mentioned above, a deal was done in 2003 with Prudential who bought out the liabilities and took on the administration, according to an old trade news item -

You might try calling the Pru. Good luck."Things are never so bad they can't be made worse" - Humphrey Bogart0 -
