Pleasant pension news
Years ago, back in the early 90s myself and my wife started up a Prudential pension as you did back then. When we left the UK a few years later it was just forgotten about but recently I came across the paperwork so I decided to ring up and find out what the current status was. Bearing in mind I havent paid into it for close to 20 years I was pleasantly surprised to be told it was just over £24,000 and a bit less for my wife. Dont get me wrong as it isnt a fortune by any means but a bit of abonus none the less.

It did make me wonder that if I hadnt come across the old paperwork that money would just have floated around in the system no doubt.

What do you plan on doing with your unexpected find? I think I'd feel a new car coming on if it were me
