CATASTROPHIC PENSION LOSSES IN 10 MONTHS

1
I want to publish an email I sent to Aviva today so that it might help warn other investors, and also so it is on record: RE PENSIONS FUNDS - TK10370929 and TK10329410 Further to my earlier email today (and 5 days ago) - since no one from Aviva is replying to my emails or calling me to advise about the CATASTROPHIC LOSSES in my pension funds, as before I have been trying to call Aviva to discuss this with someone.  However, I am not able to speak to anyone at Aviva because of this message "We are not able to talk to you because of an emergency. Try again later" So because I can't actually speak to someone at Aviva - I have attempted to take control of my Pension Funds myself. But, once again, Aviva is preventing me from doing this - see the following: In my Online Account, under the heading 'HOW YOUR PENSION IS INVESTED" - there is an option to "Choose Your Funds" However, although it states: "Press the button below to start the process of moving from your investment approach and telling us which individual funds you want to invest in." BUT....there is NO BUTTON TO PRESS!! - see the attachment Instead, there is a Call Us icon. But as I've explained above, when I call Aviva to speak about my Pension Fund, the reply is: "We are not able to talk to you because of an emergency. Try again later" So - at a time when my Aviva Pension policies - TK10370929 and TK10329410 - are incurring huge, seemingly uncontrollable losses - due probably to the high percentage of the policies being invested in High-Risk funds - I am being prevented from taking control of my own Pension Funds and moving them into Low-Risk funds. As I've explained in previous emails - the combined loss of my policies - TK10370929 and TK10329410 - since December 2021 is £38,273.54 + £9,653 = £47,926.54 in 10 months!!! The total funds left in my policies - TK10370929 and TK10329410 - today (28/09/2022) is - £77,469.46 + £19,377.20 = £96,846.66 My retirement date is September 2023 - less than a year away - but at the current rate of loss, there will be no money left in either policy. Therefore, because Aviva is not helping me - I want to take control myself - BUT I'M BEING PREVENTED FROM DOING SO BY AVIVA. I WANT SOMEONE TO CALL ME BACK PLEASE Reviewed on: 28th September 2022
