Hi, I've just a bombshell dropped on me in work regarding my pension and I've no idea what to do now.
I started working for a belfast based company nearly 3yrs ago. Now they provided a pension scheme that I joined (a uk one). I can remember signing forms and personally talking to liason with the company that was providing the service. About 4 months after I joined, the company got bought out by a Scottish firm.
As far as I was aware my pension was transfered and everything should have been as normal. I was told nothing to the contrary. Two months ago I sent a mail to the HR department asking about it. I recieve a reply back today telling me that I have no pension that they are aware of and one hasn't been setup to facilitate the irish market yet. (there is one other employee as well as myself based down here).
I'm nearly 30 and have no pension. I'm devestated to hear this news. What do I do when I calm down?
