Well my increase was 4.2% but then an element was not increased as the increase in that element was paid on the GMP element of my state pension.
For those in the Commonwealth countries, I have asked about the index-linking on reaching the normal age for receipt of the state pension.

As far as I can see our service pensions index-linked increases should not be abated by GMP post age 65 as our state pensions are frozen as soon as we claim them.

If anyone has already asked that questions a precedent would be nice to know about, otherwise I will let you know what they come back with.
