Re: vr and document pension thrown in
I've sent my papers back yesterday my understanding of the chat with the solicitors is you get the pilon and 6 months within 6 weeks of your finishing date, then the pension people contacted you with your enhanced pension option within 2 months, Looking at my options on the pension although I'm getting it now at 58 its been rounded off as if I was 60 and a little more.$$ new gold dream $$ wrote:hi anybody else got vr and in the document the pension has been added i was wondering if you took early Retirement you get your pension . talking to the solicitor some employees have and haven,t had it added just wondering as for the money side of it i bought 8 1/2 years pension in so have nearly 23 1/2 years pension i am only 55 and v.r.seems a good get out as i hate working saturdays till 3 o,clock plus much later on a busy day gone the days when you could run around and finish at 9/30 my question is why have they put my pension in with v.r. and if i leave my pension alone will i not get a lump sum later on maybe if i am 60

Re: vr and document pension thrown in
If you are over 55 and still in a RM pension scheme, and you are offered EVR you will get your accrued pension slightly enhanced (and lump if you are in A/B pension scheme), plus 26 weeks VR payment.
