Super
I look to the future because that's where I'm spending the rest of my life.
Finding lost super
If you've worked in several jobs through your working life you might have ended up with super in funds you don't even remember. Lost super is a significant issue across Australia, with the number of lost member superannuation accounts listed on the Lost Members Register growing from year to year.

In 2008 there was $12.9 billion in lost super. This means that consumers are losing more than $1 billion a year in fees, lost payments and earnings from inactive superannuation accounts.
If you think you may have lost super, why not try to track it down? The ATO's SuperSeeker is a free service that is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. It looks for your lost super in real time and can instantly provide you with possible matches. Visit its website or phone 13 28 65. If SuperSeeker finds a possible match, it will provide you with the name and contact details of the super fund/s that may have your lost super.
FACT!
If Australia's lost super funds were evenly distributed to every man, women and child, they would each receive more than $600!
