Rated 5 out of 5 stars

I'm happy my all pension is in one place , safe hands .
Moving pensions to L&G takes a bit long , but I understand procedures.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

I talked to Caroline of L&G regarding my account and policy. She has been very patient and guiding me through the whole process from setting up the account to informing me the available options on how to handle the fund.

The entire experience is good as Caroline is very helpful, in a professional manner. It's the first time I heard about this company but I have a good impression already because of her.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Received my lump sum sooner than expected and seems I will receive the first monthly payment in the first month since making the claim

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

I had to transfer my pension so all my pensions are with the same provider. Making it easier to control them. L&G has made it easy to do this. Fast and efficient.

Why are you asking me this?

I don't understand what you are asking. I just ticked some boxes. Why are you asking me about this? Can't I just tick the boxes? Surely that would make more sense. Why make the review take so long?
