RBS Issue – Pension Payments Unaffected

Given the problems experienced by Royal Bank of Scotland customers over the past few days, we have been concerned that our Pensioner Payroll would be affected.  The Pensions Office has been assured by RBS that the problems currently being experienced relate to old payments.  New payments are back to normal and should be processed on time.  There should be, therefore, no change to the Pensioner Pay Date this month.

Please note that as we are moving office over the weekend, our telephone system will be down on Friday afternoon.   You will therefore be unable to contact anyone in the Pensions Office on Friday afternoon, but you can contact us at our new office from Monday 2 July.

Our new address is Cornerstone, 107 West Regent Street, Glasgow  G2 2BA.  Our telephone numbers remain the same.

Pension Increase Exchange Exercise

The Pensions Office has already written to all members eligible for the Pension Increase Exchange offer.  If you have not been contacted then it is almost certain that is because you did not fall into the eligible category. 

The offer is now closed – please see Pensions News 28 for further details.

There may be a further offer made to pensioners later in 2013. We will keep you posted of any developments on this.



And the Winner Is……

We are pleased to announce that the winner of the Kindle competition launched in Pensions News 26 is Mrs Sandra Clark of Swindon in Wiltshire.  Mrs Clark retired from Stockley Park 4 years ago.  She had been considering purchasing a Kindle for her next holiday and was delighted to have won our prize.

Many thanks to everyone who took part in the competition by providing their email address.  We will update you on the progress of our Electronic Communications project in Pensions News 27, due out in November.
