Forgotten Pension

I have 2 small pensions that I paid into for a short time but when I left the employment I did not transfer them to another pension. Can I still access those pensions. How do I go about finding them now. One of the employers has sold the division I worked for. Will I have lost out? :(

    They made have sold your division, but the pension records will be intact in either the old company or new.

    Have you called them?
  • I tried to call today but ended up at an office Amsterdam, they have given me a number in the UK where they may be able to help.:j

    If you didn't realise already, it's important to advise change of address to organisations that hold your pensions, and also to keep all docs received from them.
