LOL, not quite :) Eastern, i think? Yeah it does, i'd rather not have it eaten up if it can be helped :p Haha, for some reason i don't think my couple of hundred is having much influence on the economy!

Yep, and completely understandable. My parents are much the same, they won't let me buy a newer car instead are loaning me theirs for a year or so until i'm set up in Melbourne, because they don't want me touching my savings. As for the amount owing, it's actually a fairly big sum, but...

I think the other fund does have a life insurance thing going on as i recall on a previous statement. But yes i'll give them a call and see what's going on there. Thanks!

Clever, very clever. :p Dad jokes, ahh..

To me $200 is a weeks wage, so passing it on to pay my parents is much better than leaving it there, especially since this fund no longer has any income going into it. I do not plan to stay with this fund so i'd rather use the money to pay part of what i owe my parents, the faster i pay it...

Hi Pully, Yeah i think that's the plan atm, roll them into one, but then find one i like. After this roll the funds over again, hopefully this will work.. Thanks for the advice everyone. Sam

Hey thanks :) i'll check it out. No it's not that much, that's why i want to take it out. As it still would make a significant dint into what i owe my parents. Atm i'm only a casual employee, plus i have two funds. I want to get rid of the hospitality fund as i'm moving out of the industry...

Thought it was 3 months full time employment..?

No but in 3 months i will have a mortgage, and in less than 3 weeks i will no longer be living at home, and i'll also be on quite a low wage. Even so, there has to be a way around it.

Lol, if i were to manage it myself it isn't possible to take it out of the fund, not enough there! I remember i recieved a statement and i had probably $500 in one, and then last time it was only about $200, not sure about the other one. Thus why i really want to get the money out, fees eat...

Not trying to open my own super fund, just trying to get the money out before it's all gone as you said. Exactly. Lol i wish i could actually go around Europe rather than say i am haha. I'd really just like to take these out to pay off the bank of parents before i leave, or at least make...

Lol, the amount i have in there i doubt would even cover an accountant, now anyway. When i first rang they said that i had to fill out a form, and it would be mailed, i never received it. I called more and more, same thing, still haven't receieved anything.

Thanks Nat, When i first rang and asked they said i could because i was under 18, and it was under a certain amount. It's still under that amount though, and it's declined since then, and i'm just annoyed that i first started contacting them when i recieved a statement in February maybe...

Hi guys, I have a bit of a problem here, for the last few months i have been trying to pull out and close my super account. I originally had one, that was opened by a previous employer when i was working full time, since then the amount has been eaten at constantly and everytime i contact...
