Old employer still paying into Pension fund

Options
Hi all,
i've discovered my ex employer is still paying £100 per month into my pension scheme. This has been going on for around 7 years and i've been ignoring it. I've recently started work for this firm again and would like to continue with my pension, but not sure how to proceed.

I informed the company accountant that they had been paying my pension while I wasn't working for them and he didn't seem overly concerned.
I'm wondering if the company entitled to claim all the money back from me?
thanks

    yes they are. They can collect it back via the pension and not you personally.
