    Nothing stopping you for getting online access and check to get the up to date figures on the pension pot. I checked my pension schemes at least monthly

    Have you got a pension with NOW PENSIONS that you check online every month?
    I agree its a good policy to check monthly... but not all pension companies are as good as each other to facilitate this... which is frustrating.
    THE NUMBER is how much you need to live comfortably: very IMPORTANT as part 1 of Retirement Planning. (Average response to my thread is £26k pa)

    Their online system is just as out date... think it was last updated in November!

    I sympathise with your position...
    I have administered a NOW scheme in the past and getting up to date info was a challenge. It sounds like not much has improved over the last couple of years... Many other pension schemes provide up to date valuations online...
