Recent experiences with Legal and General (LGIM) as white label drawdown scheme operator

I know there is much discussion prior on the move "out" of the traditional L&G pension business to Reassure/Phoenix.
I am looking for something on the exact opposite topic re L&G's new and refocused pension business.

Question - has anyone had their pension scheme moved to them for admin and pensions freedom features since 2018 approx. i.e. INTO L&G new savings and pensions business ?

If so what was the migration experience ?
How is the service working out - apps, websites, portfolio management, drawdown and payment, telephone channel ?
Funds and costs ? 
Was it fair value or "please leave after accumulation" deterrent pricing"

My interest is drawdown/de-accumulation but given how niche the query is - any experiences from a member of an employer scheme that has been moved in of any age in the past couple of years good or bad - would likely be helpful.

I will be comparing them on features and costs to Vanguard's new UK SIPP and other appropriate options.
It is Murphy's law that I now wish to compare two on the shortlist that are not on the comparison tools (Langcat etc.) and for which the specific T&C paperwork will arrive late in the day.  

It seems that if I wish to wait to see all the options before moving (or not) then I will have to wait an extra 6 months for all the paperwork to trickle in.

Anyone ?

Thank you

No drawdown facilities for new Vanguard SIPP until some unspecified time in the future .

Indeed - per the Vanguard announcement they *may* launch drawdown early in the new tax year post April 2020.  Or not.  It took a long time to get this far (accumulation launch) from first announcement. 

And the new chancellor may throw a "you all need to implement a major change" spanner in the works and gum things up. 
Wait and see until April
