Any donation of 1% of your pension pot would be much appreciated.

Mr Sutton,
I understand that L&G are still paying the members who are already in pension payment, please could you update on the situation?
It has been over a month since your previous communication

Dear Mr Nichols
The buy-out has concluded and members pensions are now fully secured with AEGON. The reason why L&G are still paying the pensions is that it is standard practice on a transfer of pension payroll for the two providers (in this case L&G and AEGON) to run a parallel payroll process for a couple of months to check that they are getting the same results before the transfer is finalised. We are not aware of any issues with the payroll to date. We are preparing a final communication to members which will be issued in consultation with AEGON shortly.
Regards.

Response from Trustee Corporation 11th Feb 2013


Via email.

Henry,
Thanks for your email. Aegon confirmed mid-January that the buy-out was still scheduled for mid-February and that everything was going to plan. We have no reason to believe that the position has changed. We have contacted Aegon to confirm this.
I will be in touch as soon as I hear back from Aegon.
Kind regards,
Kate

Fast approaching


Email to The Trustee Corporation Sun 10th Feb 2013.

Dear Kate,
As the 15th Feb is fast approaching I want to ensure the pencil has been “inked-in” and everything is going as previously planned and advised?
I trust this is the case, as I do remember requesting that the members be kept advised one way or the other.
A timely response will be appreciated and expected.

Regards
Richard (Henry) Nichols
