Have been trying to get ahold of telephone number. I have a plan number with the Pension Plan; as well as an Id. number.
So far I've had no luck contacting them! But anyone that worked for them knows how hard it is/was to get and find out what information you need. I worked for them for 15 years in New Jersey and Pennsylvania shoe stores.
I was just told by a S.S. Administrator to write to the company (EBS); And if no reply call Social Security Administration. Good Luck! I'm going to keep trying to get in touch with EBS!
