    AVCs with the Pru started after March last year don't incur a penalty - or so I was assured. Will dig out the paperwork and check but am pretty certain it was a recent change.

    Thanks for that. To be honest, the early cash out penalty was so low (1% per year) that it must have cost more than that to administer.

    Looking at the Pru website it seems it can offer salary sacrifice if the organisation agrees to it. Assume that means you would get your 12% VAT back on this as well. Not sure how widespread the use of this is though for AVCs,
