What you need to know

How do I know if I have a lost pension?

If you have worked for more than one employer and paid into a workplace pension — even briefly — there may be a pot in your name. The Pensions Policy Institute estimates 3.3 million pots are currently lost or unclaimed in the UK.

Can I find a pension from 20 or 30 years ago?

Yes. Pension providers are legally required to keep records indefinitely. Even a pension from the 1990s can be traced as long as you have some information about your employer at the time.

What if the company I worked for no longer exists?

Pension schemes do not disappear when companies close. They are typically transferred to another provider or protected by the Pension Protection Fund. Our specialists know how to trace these.

What does it cost?

Our initial assessment is free. Pension tracing specialists typically charge a flat fee or small percentage of the pension value found — only if a pension is successfully located. You pay nothing if nothing is found.

What is Rightful Money's role?

Rightful Money identifies people who may have lost pension pots or dormant assets and connects them with authorised tracing specialists. We earn a small introducer fee from our partners only on success. You pay us nothing directly.
