Legal and General Pension reviews (42)

Reliable pension provider but not very transparent

3
I held FSAVC pension with Legal and General before I transferred it to Hargreaves Lansdown in March 2014. Whilst my pension grew in value whilst held with Legal and General, the only limited information available to me regarding performance was the annual statement sent out by post. In addition, the charges were not clear. By contrast, my pension is now held as a SIPP with Hargreaves Lansdown where I have complete flexibility in terms of reviewing investment performance, investment deals, etc. and all charges are entirely clear. Whilst I had no major complaints with Legal and General, I do regret not initially building up my pension within a SIPP with Hargreaves Lansdown. Reviewed on: 5th July 2017

Too much back and forth

I needed to understand how to use my pension pot and although L&G were helpful it felt like they went back and forth a bit too much causing additional delay. Reviewed on: 4th August 2015
