Rubbish

Do not use

I have lost £12,000 off my £33,000 pension, I am in a low rick and when I asked why such a big amount has been wiped off my pension they just said pensions go down as well as up. No interaction from them what so ever, Reviewed on: 7th February 2023

Where has over one third of my investment GONE, AEGON?

1
My pension pot was with Scottish Equitable, now Aegon. From 2017 to 2020 the value increased by almost 18% - excellent! But since then it's dropped by over 35%, mostly over the last 12 months. OK, there's a war going on in Europe, but how could the so-called Fund Manager allow it to crash so badly - especially as it's a supposedly a safe retirement fund with 75% in government bonds and 25% in cash? Reviewed on: 25th January 2023

Avoid at all cost.

This company is a complete rip off. It shows how the FSA are powerless and useless. Reviewed on: 19th January 2023

Has anyone got their money out?

1
Same as previous posters, fobbed off, given excuse after excuse. Even told money has been sent. Nothing. Reviewed on: 16th January 2023

Can They Do This?

I have a very small pot with these jokers. I just tried to withdraw the full amount ( only £4k) via their website. They say ' as stated in terms & conditions, I have to leave £1k in my pot' Is this legal? Th Reviewed on: 9th January 2023

Loss of 44k in my final year 6 months before retirement

1
This company are unreal ! I've just got my pension statement from them and to my astonishment I'm 44k down . 3rd Jan 22 was worth £119500 3rd Jan 23 worth £75500 . When i phoned up to find out where my money was and i mentioned that i was under the impression that my funds would be in less risky investments as i was approaching retirement i was told that they are in what are seen to be less risk .. This company need investigating . I have raised a complaint with them with a view to contacting the pensions ombudsman. Reviewed on: 6th January 2023

A good way to lose money

They have never been any better than stand-still, but the last year's performance has been diabolical. See all the other one star reviews for confirmation. Reviewed on: 6th January 2023

Any excuse not to pay out so avoid at all costs

1
10 days! Been almost three months and every excuse not to pay out so now taking legal action to get my money. Overall rating zero stars and obviously would not recommend this company. Lies and evasion all the way! Reviewed on: 4th January 2023
