    It can do , it depends on your own NI record. Have you always worked and earned a reasonable wage ?

    Yes part from the last few years whereby I've had enough money not to work every year (I've taken 2 years off since 2000) and can now subsequently afford to retire. The forecast said I had 38 years contributions and would receive 87% pension.

    If you've effectively worked every year up until your divorce its extremely unlikely that you'll get an increase as your pension in your own right would be better than any pension you would get if your ex's conts were taken in to account.
    I no longer work in Council Tax Recovery but instead work as a specialist Council Tax paralegal assisting landlords and Council Tax payers with council tax disputes and valuation tribunals. My views are my own reading of the law and you should always check with the local authority in question.

    There's a sticky on this on the Pensions Board.
