Review of the The People's Pension, Workplace Pensions:

Awful at paying out

I turned 55 in April.Applied for my small pot pension to pay for my wife to have foot surgery to alleviate her pain.I provided every document that was requested.Delays followed.Finally I was messaged to contact an 0300 telephone number.Except it doesn't work from Ireland.The UK open university 0300 does ,so clearly it's people's partnership have the problem.Thanfully my sister works in the industry and she found 01293 586666.I called and spoke to reception.She tried to transfer me to the small pots team ,before coming back and saying thry would not speak to me but wanted me to answer questions such as ,am I really me ,and was I taking my smallpot of my own free will.Bu****"it basically. They then waited twenty more working days and paid out with no further communication.No email or nothing.I can no longer get onto the portal either.I was paid out about 5 percent less than my illustration when I first requested my smallpot 3 months earlier.So I've seen the typical people's partnership response asking people to email them on this website.So my response is you have my details ,why don't you email me and I will take twenty working days to reply to you.Robert Cave Date of experience: 18 July 2024 Reviewed on: 19th July 2024

Impossible to withdraw funds

Despite repeated contact the People's Pension keep saying ' wait 7-10 days'. this is a song they sing and it has no meaning as it has not happened 3 times and they no longer bother to answer emails. I am actually doubting the financial stability of this company now and suspect that they will go into liquidation leaving people high and dry. I wish I could say something positive about them having been enrolled in their scheme but I cannot find anything good. Definitely buyer beware. Reviewed on: 4th December 2021

Did not opt-out

I called two Months ago to opt-out and hopping that money for first month will be brought back, but now they toom money even for second month which they not giving back money neither for both months. Never will use again and will not recommend to others Reviewed on: 27th October 2021

Not a good company to deal with

Good luck with trying to get your pension pot from People’s Pension ! I’ve been trying for 2 weeks just to get it started ! No communication at all ! I’ve sent emails and phone calls and on there website messages ! Nothing at all this morning got a email asking when is best time to phone to resolve the matter! Guess what no phone call I think you need to take legal action to get your pension ! Totally unprofessional !!! Stay clear and if enrolling by your company get out asp !
