I am 64yrs old and I will be retiring later this year on my 65th birthday. My pension entitlments will be the State PRSI pension plus defined contribution pensions from two different places of employment. I have been working for my present employer in Cork for the last 23yrs and I am due a pension from this employment. For this particular pension I have no problem. Prior to working in Cork I worked for 10yrs in Dublin for another company. I was a members of this company's non contributory pension plan for the last 7yrs of my employment there. When I left this company I elected to leave my pension as a paid up pension rather than taking the cash value of the pension. A lot of people who left the company at the time decided to take cash.I still hold an orginal certificate of membership of the Pension Scheme and a letter from Irish Pensions Trust outlining my entitlements at the age of 65 with an assumed projection of the Pension Fund.
I have been in contact with Irish pensions Trust now for the last 18months in an attempt to clarify my pension entitlements. As of yet I have failed to get a statement from Irish Pensions Trust with regard to my pension. They just say the cannot find any record of my pension and that they are continuing to 'look into it'.
My concern is that as this company was sold since last I worked there that there is no continuity of records, or indeed that the funds may have been misappropriated by the previous owners.
If I am not sucessful with my claim is there anything that I can do?
Regards
