LGPS AVC - Money Matters

Rustin

A couple of months ago I began contributing to LGPS AVC, using Money Matters. I'm with WYPF.

I've checked the Money Matters website and am struggling to find where I can track the pension pot. I wont be checking regularly but have an amount in mind for retirement so would like to see if i need to increase my payments as I plan to end work in 3 years time.

I believe the AVC (salary sacrifice) is with Prudential.  

Do I need to create an additional account with Prudential to track the pension pot, amend the fund allocation etc or am I missing something simple on the Money Matters website where it shows the pots progress?

You are correct - you need to create a Prudential account. I think I received an invitation to do so when I started my AVCs

Yes, you should have been sent information regarding the Pru account as that is where your pension pot is managed. You can see all the detail on there.

I'll check my emails, many thanks

From memory I think it took about.6 weeks from when I signed up for AVCs to receiving everything. I believe I eas sent some correspondence through the post with details on how to register with the pru.
