One years collective plan worth

Post by Wullie10 »

One for Robert :cuppa ( as always ) . I started the plan one year ago with the bonus. I'm leaving within weeks :nana any idea what this would be worth at 67 when it is accessed? I know the Lump Sum will depend on limits at the time. So basically a years worth. Thanks.

Does it tell you when you login to your account? :hmmmm

Otherwise, for each year of employment the basic accrual rate is 1/80 of pensionable pay for the pension, 3/80ths for the lump sum and another 2% on top for the booster.

The exact amounts will obviously vary depending on how much you earn, plus the annual valuations.
But as an example someone with pensionable pay of £500 per week should accrue a pension of £325, a lump sum of £975 and a lump sum booster of £520 for each 52 weeks of membership.

You can take your pension at 67 unreduced, earlier with a reduction, or take a transfer value and move to a personal pension.
