Martin Lewis hosts the Martin Lewis Money Show on ITV.

About 3.3 million pension pots are lost in the UK. The average pot is worth £9,500.

Lewis says to start by looking at old papers and contacting old employers. If that doesn't work, use the Government's Pension Tracing Service.

Lewis explained how the service works. He also talked about a free tracing service called Gretel.

The service checks every 14 days, says Lewis. He says people in their 40s, 50s, and 60s should check.

Some people found big sums of money, says Lewis. One person found £45,000, another found £100,000.

Financial regulators say small pension pots are often lost. Many people have multiple dormant pensions.

Experts say putting all pensions in one pot can help. But they warn to check carefully before moving pensions.

Tracing services can find providers even if companies change names. Keeping personal details up to date can prevent lost pensions.
