Pension Payment
I am not describing my question as having anything to do with the above mentioned debacle. I am just tagging a question on here in the hope of getting a knowledgeable answer.
My last day in uniform was 20 Sep 22. When, therefore, should I expect to receive my lump sum and what, if anything, do I need to do to make it happen?
I completed all the relevant paperwork before leaving and was told I had nothing left to do. My UK address and bank details have remained the same as they were before I left. I am out of the country though and haven’t read any correspondence from Equiniti.
The answer I have had so far is to expect my lump sum to arrive in 30 working days (it’s now been more than that) and that all payments will be back dated.
I just wondered if anybody has any recent experience of whether the 30 days is a good benchmark or whether it will be the first pay run after the 30 days (standard JPAC Glasgow answer even though I realise pensions are done differently) or one of any number of other such excuses.
I have some Champagne on ice which is waiting on an answer!
