    What do you mean by 25% of SERPS? SERPS is part of the state pension and you cannot take 25% of it.

    There is no pot with state pension and SERPS is part of state pension.

    These other answers assume your taking 25% of private pension.

    I think this is more about benefits than pensions.  Reported to be moved.
    It looks like a misunderstanding of pensions or state pension.

    Until the OP clarifies what they mean no one can advise properly
