Hello update advisor said approx £6800 pa for OH on pot of £118k( no cash taken) thinks this is the best we will get and is a fixed amount I will get 100% if OH dies, looked at annuity rates from sites you have mentioned and I think I can do better with their basic rates.
Mentioned that cause of change of circumstances may put off claiming pension for 3 yrs, advisor said no benefit claim now????
Also have one policy where Ins co have written that there is £14 K but on the sheet with the other policies the total for that one is £11k a diff of £3k and I was told they go up and down ( in 3 mths) also OH is on a fee - mine commission- any comments- as you guys seem to have the answers- thanks
also £800 fee for OH ???, know that you are all trying to help and appreciate it but we are pension virgins and get VERY confused
