Hi fishes,
I left hcl in august and have been trying to transfer pf from hcl trust to my epfo account. So this is what i tried:
1. On the epfo website , login and go to Online Services -> One member - one epf account
2. It asks for the MID of previous employer. As per hcl pay slip my pf account number is -GN/GGN/5572/474542
3. I am entering the MID as GNGGN00055720000474542 but getting an error.

Please tell me what am i doing wrong here? Or is there any other way to get the pf transferred?

Has anyone notice a significant increase in rep cold calls (emails)? Every since I joined a new agency last year, the emails have been non-stop. Even one rep reached out to me on my very first day…I’m speaking with a vendor if they would be relevant to my clients but a lot of them are not. I’m trying to ignore them but it is a lot. How do you handle all the oncoming rep emails?
