You are not listening to the answers.
HMRC rules require the UFPLS on a first payment (or single payment if whole amount) to be taxed on month one basis. That means the taxation is almost certainly going to be wrong.
A decent calculator would tell you what the initial tax will be and what the final outcome will be once the tax has been reclaimed.I am an Independent Financial Adviser (IFA). The comments I make are just my opinion and are for discussion purposes only. They are not financial advice and you should not treat them as such. If you feel an area discussed may be relevant to you, then please seek advice from an Independent Financial Adviser local to you.0 -
If you click Start Again the link works just fine.
You are getting confused between the tax which might be due for the tax year as a whole and the tax the pension company is obliged to deduct from the first payment they make.
HMRC no doubt told you what you wanted to hear, not what the pension company has to deduct.0
