I was forced to join vickers rolls Joyce pension scheme with the company i was employed with 30 yrs ago. just had a letter from them asking if it was me living at this address. i forgot all about it and paid in for about 3yrs. Is it worth anything and cash it in.
-
almost certainly is worth something and potentially quite a bit
basically they are trying to see if you are still alive, so my suggestion is to respond and ask them for a statement of current benefits.
As to cashing it in - there are strict rules on doing that and generally speaking it is only possible if it is very small. Best to get the details of what the potential pension is first and take it from there.
If they make you an offer to transfer it elsewhere, it may be a good deal but also think why they are making you an offer, it could be in their interest as well

My Dads pension provider ring him up now and again "just to make sure things are alright" he's now 88 and has his money back(and more! ) many times over , he was paying shillings in for years !

The letter was sent on 11th Nov 2010. I got it 3 days ago from my mum. I've rang them and they already have this address on file? They are sending my all the details so can look into it
thanks

i'm not sure that you are without anything - looks like that one went to the financial assistance scheme see the link
