The TUC, which has organised the pilot scheme, says more than half the calls have been about the state pension.
More than two-thirds of those calling are aged over 50 and only 3% under 30.
The TUC said the results suggest two out of five people have done nothing about getting an extra pension. Helpline Number: 0800 0282267
