Last year we launched our new pension portal with our new Administrators, Gallagher, allowing you quick and simple online access and tools in relation to your pension with the Plan. As a reminder, on the pension portal, you can:
- View your personal information and membership details
- Update your personal details and address (deferred members and pensioners only)
- View your deferred benefit details (deferred members only)
- Generate retirement quotations (active members only)
- View your pension payment details and payslips (pensioners only)
- Update your bank details (pensioners only)
- View and amend your investment strategy and Target Retirement Date for your Additional Voluntary Contributions (AVCs) with Legal and General (if you have paid any)
- View important Plan documents
- Update your Expression of Wish details
- Update your contact information
We have also been working with Gallagher on ways to improve the functionality of the pension portal, and we are pleased to announce the following:
- A new function to allow deferred members to generate retirement quotations (coming in 2023)
- A new function to allow active and deferred members to generate illustrative transfer values (coming in 2023)
It has been great to see a steady increase in the number of members registering for and using the pension portal during the year. If you have not used it before, why not give it a try today?
