Questions re a CSC Computer Sciences LTD deferred pension.
Thanks again for all your help on this matter, i am pretty clear what is going on now - good that all the "AVC" confusion has been cleared up !!
Yes i got a state pension statement in June 2016:
My estimated state pension was £134 a week ( 39 qualifying years up to tax year 2014/15 )
COPE amount estimate = £55.11 a week .
Have not received CETV from Mercer yet, they said 28 days, so should be towards end of March.
I will start a new thread sometime as i am 57 next birthday and since i went self-employed around 7 years ago, i have not made any pension provisions, apart from NI contributions, and i need to make a plan or i will be working till i drop :-(
