Pension Increase 2026.

[andyP]

With the rising cost of everyday items does anyone know the percentage of rise for next years pension, or any rough idea?

It's the inflation figures for September that are used for pension increase purposes, which are released in October.

They're actually due this coming Wednesday the 22nd of October. So keep your eyes peeled and you can prepare yourself for next April.

Section A/B is CPI
Section C is RPI

4.1% CPI and 4.5% RPI I think.

September inflation figures just released:

CPI - 3.8%
RPI - 4.5%

I am due to get my first pension payment in December, does anyone know if I will get the full % increase next April?

I read on the pension website that you may not get the full amount in your first year, but I am not sure.

Thanks

No you won't get the full amount.
