25% Tax Free on WHAT?

I have only contacted one fund direct and that is the largest of all (75K)I'm 62 at the moment and need to get things in better perspective. The only thing I am clear about is I have one pension (the largest) payable now as it was available at 55.
Is 75k the CETV? Who is the pension provider?
Have you made a list of all the pensions including the type of pension (Defined Benefit/Defined Contribution) and current value?I don't want to get in the position where I get taxed more because some pensions are payable whilst I still work, its a dilemma which I am unclear at the present.
As you are intending to continue to contribute to a DC pension you don't want to fall foul of the MPAA either.

With regard to your DC pensions, you might find an appointment with Pension Wise of use

but if you want actual advice you will need to consult an Independent Financial Adviser and pay for it.
