Abbey National Pension

Hello all. I had a search and could not find anything that led me to clear answers on this. From the mid 90s to 2004 I worked at Abbey National prior to the take over by Santander. I was enrolled in a work pension scheme. Since that time I have lived overseas and not really up to date with the UK. I tried to find info using the government webstie, that led no where, I then tried to contact Santander but it seems I cannot get anyone without having an account. I just wondering where can I go to actually speak to a real person? Is there an email available to ask about my work pension. Does it even still exist?
