PCSPS members annual increase letter question

BoxerfanUK

Ever since I retired eight years ago I’ve received (in early March) a letter from civil service pensions informing me of the details and amount after tax of the new pension payment for the forthcoming tax year in April. For some reason, this year I have received no letter or information!!

Have any other PCSPS members received a letter or are they no longer informing civil servants of changes to the amounts of their pension?

Have you not read about the chaos with the scheme since coming under new management ? They can't even manage to pay new pensions on time let alone send out increase letters.

yes I am aware of this debacle and thought that this may well be the reason but just wanted wanted to ask if everyone else was in the same boat!

This country really is falling apart at the seams. 😔

Mr S received his increase letter last week, so they are dribbling through.

you’ll get 4.5%, the September CPI rate, same as every year

Although that was the RPI rate, it's the CPI rate which is key here and that was lower at 3.8%.
