How does one put the TFLS i took 2 months ago back into my pension? It was widely publicised that it would be lowered to £100k....but apparently not

    Sounds like that might be deemed to be pension recycling.

    Oh deary me. Perhaps look at the load of similar threads that popped up when people made the same 'decisions' last year.

    Basically, you made your bed....
    One of us has misread the post - I assumed it to be sarcasm!

    You beat me to it - I'm pretty sure it's definite sarcasm. Hedgehog should maybe edit and add a wink emoji to their post!

    Two months ago?  I panic-withdrew mine yesterday because The Telegraph scared me.  I've sold my £1m house at a 20% discount, too, because they said I'd face a Mansion Tax.

    If so then I will gracefully accept that I was well and truly reeled in  :D

    But that can't be wrong. It was all over the tabloids months before the announcement.  :o
    • The rich buy assets.
    • The poor only have expenses.
    • The middle class buy liabilities they think are assets.

    I just sold all my company shares because I'd have to pay an extra 2% on dividends.

    Everyone's a critic and to my mind it takes the edge off the comedy by adding a winkie to show it's a a jokie.
    But like the frog it's better not to inspect.
