I decided on an annuity from Legal & General and managed to do everything online. I did have to phone up with a query about the ad hoc withdrawals - I went for a fixed term annuity, the whole process was really simple. Reviewed on: 13th April 2026

Poorly tested admin procedures causing customers unnecessary inconvenience with obstacles impossible to overcome. Rigid bureaucracy. Corporate arrogance. It's all about Legal & General.

I entered into an annuity with legal and general. Overall, a good rate and the application was simpler than I thought it would be (I opted for the enhanced annuity). Reviewed on: 12th October 2014
