I took early retirement 11 years ago - I am actually in receipt of my occupational pension.
It's just luck that my financial calculations weren't dependent on my receiving my state pension at age 63 years and 6 months.bigfreddiel wrote: »Well it's not exactly a major change now is it.

You may think it's not a major change but I disagree.
As I've said, it has deprived me of over £6K.
I will decide whether I think that is 'annoying' or something more.

14 is not 'a few'.0
