Pension increases

Post by Mrblobby »

Most people will already know what their increases will be come April . But just in case , 3% on the state pension .

Sorry folks I supplied bum information . It will be 3% for all , not extra for NHS and others , the extra is something to do with revaluation , which I do not understand . :?

It actually works out at less than 1.5% more when you look at what you get! If you had a pension of 1,000 euros a month then in April it will be worth 1,030 euros ............. but if you worked for the NHS the same pension amount will be worth 1,045 euros? That equates to a 1.4563% increase!

Now this is a surprise. I was expecting a 3% increase to my teacher's pension but this is suggesting 4.6%. What "revaluation for active member" means I am not sure?

Never spend your potential gains until you actually receive them! :)
