pension help please.

[internetguy]

hey guys, hows it going. im wondering if you could please advise me. over the years iv been a postie twice, i recently left after doing 18 months and claimed back what little i paid into the pension. what i need to know is.....i did 5 years service a few years ago (i left around 2001/2002) and i paid into the pension for 4 years. i was a bit wreckless back then and probably (most likely) threw any relevent paperwork away. who do i contact to see what i paid into it back then, would i be best phoning HR to see if they can help and can i claim back the money i paid into it. thanks for any help.

As you were employed for over 2 years you can't get a refund of your contributions.
