OP transferred their DB Pension scam at age 55, spent his dosh and wants recompense. We await his good news!
Don't worry, his good fortune will soon go up in smoke like the last bag of cash.

They recommended I do nothing, I insisted on transferring (so, just about the opposite from the assumption someone made above). I have absolute control of that SIPP now and I am very content but, for an insistent client, Hargreaves Lansdown is absolutely the worst choice. That's the warning I want widely seen. I shall put it on the pensions forum when the FO publish the case.
Kind regards.

Cheers, Peter Baker.
Finally somebody on my wavelength.
More to follow..hopefully a link to the ombudsman's final decision.0 -
Hypocritically, Hargreaves are quite happy to accept DB transfers at second remove.
Their decisions are predicated on their liability for potential compensation claims in the future.0 -
