Easy access and great customer service

When I contacted Aegon to transfer the value of my pension to a new provider they were professional and ensured the process was smooth and secure. Reviewed on: 11th September 2016

Slow administration and lack of understanding of customer needs

I had a pension policy with Aegon from a previous employer, which I wished to continue after leaving. This was much more difficult than expected and took about 6 months to set up. They insisted that I had to verify my identity with a certified copy of my passport, despite the fact that I was already a customer. When I later wanted to add another lump sum, this seemed to confuse them. They sent me the wrong form, then ignored me then twice told me they needed to verify my identity again. Eventually I managed to get it sorted but I would not recommend Aegon and wish I had chosen a different company. Reviewed on: 24th December 2015

Much room for improvement

I've had a catalogue of bad experiences with my Aegon pension. Everything from statements and calls have felt much more difficult than I would have expected. Not many of us can chose who our pension is with, but I would hope for better. Reviewed on: 29th July 2015
