Choosing which plan to pay in to

Options
Hello all

I currently have three small pension pots from my last three jobs.

Standard Life
Scottish Widows
Royal London

I wasn't at any of these jobs for very long.

My new company don't currently have a corporate pension fund but will double my contributions into a plan of my choice. I will eventually want to consolidate all of the pots if possible, but in the first instance I need to make the decision as to which plan I pay into now.

Is there an easy way for me to find out which is best?

Grateful for any advice you can give.

    Compare the charges and the investment options within each. You may even find that a new pension would be best and you could transfer these into it if you wished.

    You also need to find out if you can still contribute to the pensions if you have left the job. Also check for any guarantees attached to any of them.
