About Pension Pie

Written by the company

Pension Pie - Helping You Reconnect with Your Lost Pensions

At Pension Pie, we specialise in helping individuals trace and reconnect with their lost or forgotten pensions. With years of experience in pension tracing, we understand how easy it can be to lose track of pension schemes, especially with career changes, company closures, or the passage of time. That’s where we come in.

Our service is simple and hassle-free. When you sign up, we take the burden off your shoulders by thoroughly investigating your pension history. We contact former employers, pension providers, and government agencies to track down any pensions you may have built up over the years. Whether it’s a workplace pension from a dissolved company or a contracted-out State Earnings-Related Pension Scheme (SERPS), our team goes the extra mile to find it for you.

We handle all the communications, writing directly to employers, pension schemes, and even the Pension Protection Fund (PPF) and HMRC, ensuring every possible lead is explored. If needed, we also follow up with major pension providers, ensuring no stone is left unturned in your search.

Transparency and communication are at the heart of what we do. We keep you updated at every step of the process, and any responses we receive are immediately shared with you. While we cannot guarantee a positive outcome in every case, our dedicated team works tirelessly to give you the best possible chance of reconnecting with your pensions.

At Pension Pie, our goal is to give you peace of mind and help you uncover the financial benefits you’ve worked hard to earn. Let us do the legwork so you can focus on what really matters. Trust us to help you take the first step toward reclaiming your pensions.

Our promise to you

Great Service

I called Pension Pie a little while ago as I was interested to find an old pension. I didn’t know where to start but I spoke to Dragana who was really informative and very helpful. In the end I decided not to go ahead with the service as it wasn’t right for me at the time however, it’s something I intend to keep in mind. I had to write this review solely for the great service and communication I received. I have since recommended Pigeon Pie to a few friends who have been wanting this service and they too have mentioned the helpful information they received. Thank you to Dragana once again for her positive communication and service.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to see this review and, in the circumstances, we do feel a 1-star rating is a little unfair.

At the beginning of every pension trace, we ask clients to provide as much information as possible about previous pensions, employers and, importantly, any documentation they may already hold. Even an old letter, policy number or provider name can provide the crucial information needed to locate a pension.

Unfortunately, the paperwork you have now found was not provided to us during the tracing process. Had we received it, we would of course have investigated those three pensions on your behalf.

We can only trace using the information available to us, which is why the process requires input from both sides.

That said, we are genuinely pleased that you have now managed to trace three of your pensions and wish you all the best with them.

Thank you for your feedback, and we’re sorry to hear that you were disappointed with your experience.

Pension tracing is often a collaborative process. As part of our service, pension providers send their responses directly to you rather than to us. This is intentional, as it keeps you in full control of your personal pension information and ensures sensitive correspondence goes straight to you.

We do rely on clients keeping us updated with any responses they receive so that we can continue progressing enquiries where necessary. Unfortunately, we received very little correspondence from you during the tracing process, which limited our ability to follow up on the information being returned.

We’re pleased to hear that you’ve since located some of your pensions. It’s also possible that the tracing letters we sent and the enquiries we made helped point you in the right direction or prompted responses that assisted with your own searches. Pension tracing can involve multiple avenues being explored at the same time, and every enquiry helps build a clearer picture.

We’re sorry that your experience didn’t meet your expectations, but we genuinely wish you all the best with the rest of your pension journey.

The company found the pension very quickly. The only problem I had is the Scottish Widows/Mercer made the security difficult. It took a lot of attempts to get the photo right.

Thank you for your feedback, and we’re sorry that your experience hasn’t met the standard you expected.

You’re absolutely right to expect a response sooner, and while we’re experiencing a particularly busy period at the moment, that’s no excuse for the delay. We sincerely apologise for the frustration this has caused.

It’s a shame that this resulted in a 1-star review before we’d had the opportunity to put things right, but we completely understand how the lack of communication affected your confidence in us.

We genuinely hope we can turn your experience around. Our team will be in touch as soon as possible to provide an update, and we’ll do everything we can to ensure the rest of your pension trace reflects the level of service we aim to provide.

Thank you again for your patience and feedback.

SERVICE NOT WORTH PAYING FOR!

SERVICE NOT WORTH PAYING FOR!
I paid for the service around Xmas last December 2025, in order to help in unravelling my civil service pension after I've personally tried with no luck. Since signing up, the service discovered nothing more than I've already discovered (dead-end) in terms of locating my pension. No communication unless I call to find out any update, and the last time I heard from them was more than 3 months ago. I will not advice anyone to sign up, because you can personally do the same thing that they're going to do in terms of writing to potential pension schemes, and doing your research.

Thank you for your feedback, and we’re sorry to hear that you were disappointed with your experience.

We’d like to apologise if you felt communication was lacking. We always aim to keep our clients updated throughout the tracing process, and we’re sorry if we fell short in your case.

Civil Service pension enquiries are unfortunately among the slowest for us to deal with, as they are handled by government departments that often have significant backlogs. Response times can be considerably longer than those of private pension providers.

As part of our process, providers send their responses directly to you rather than to us. This is intentional, as it keeps you in complete control of your pension information and ensures you receive any sensitive information first. We do rely on clients letting us know when responses arrive so we can continue progressing the trace where needed.

We believe you will still receive a response from the Civil Service, and we’ll be happy to help interpret or progress anything they send. Equally, if it turns out there isn’t a pension to be found, while that’s understandably disappointing, it at least provides certainty and avoids you continuing to search indefinitely.

Thank you again for your feedback, and we genuinely wish you all the best with your pension search.

Thank you for your feedback, and we’re sorry to hear that you were disappointed with the outcome.

While we work hard to trace pensions using the information available to us, unfortunately we cannot guarantee that a pension will always be located. Pension tracing can be complex, particularly where records are incomplete, outdated or unavailable.

We’re pleased to hear that you were able to identify additional pensions through your own searches, and we genuinely wish you every success in bringing your retirement savings together.

We appreciate your comments and will continue to look for ways to improve our service and ensure clients have a clear understanding of the tracing process from the outset.

I asked Pension Pie to find a missing Pension from 1981

I asked Pension Pie to find a missing pension. They found it in just a few weeks. The team at Pension Pie kept in communication with me and I felt well informed. They were friendly and answered my questions. When I first enquired, I spoke to Michelle and she was very helpful, friendly and informative, and that's what helped me choose to use Pension Pie. Thank you to all of you, Michelle, Jonathan and Sue.

Dont hesitate to ask for help

From start to finish you couldn't wish to meet a nicer group of people..
Sue goes out of her way to make you feel at ease I thought I'd been scammed it turned out Aviva had bought out a company that held my policies. Sue reassured me they are working hard to find my pensions and they did.

I would not hesitate to recommend you ask them to help. There are quick and smart enough to see no stone is left untouched and they soon found my missing pensions.

They are worth every penny you pay them. I was looking for 18 months they found mine in 2 months.
