Does anyone have any idea on what the Provident Fund is up to in South Africa?

I don't know Porgie, wish you can contact Jurgen Boyd Deputy Registrar of the Pensions Funds directly, he also brought the case to court, how did your provident fund work when you resigned? usually you have to transfer it to another provident fund otherwise you get taxed on the money when you resign? did they pay you out a lumpsum and then you paid tax on it? I think the curator is checking who are beneficiaries and who are not, remember if it gets liquidated you will be a creditor with a claim, depending on how much money they have left you might be offered say for eg R 5, 00 for every R 10, 00 they owe you. If I was you I will wait till you get the forms and read them or better still mail this person and ask her more details. Perhaps you might still score something? Was the Provident fund suppose to pay out when you were 60?

Sounds like they are in trouble. Don't give them bank details, they might just rob you.
