Pension forecast

My forecast is short of “full “ pension by about £25 per week. When I rang DWP to increase contributions they said I can’t add to any below 2016. I have 2 year (2013/14 and 2014/15) where I fall short by £67 per year but they won’t let me contribute towards it. I find Martins words misleading as he says you can pay as from 2006 . Any help anywhere my friends ?

Paying from 2006-07 to 2015-16 is dependent on your personal circumstances and Martin clearly states that. If DWP advise you cannot pay for those pre 2016 years then you were in a contracted out pension scheme which limits how many pre 2016 years you can use, you are limited to 35 in any case. Post 2016 years will add to your pension.
Never associate with idiots on their own level, because, being an intelligent man, you'll try to deal with them on their level - and on their level they'll beat you every time.
Being hated by idiots is the price you pay for not being one of them.
