Whilst I understand that some individuals would have been horribly effected by a late notification (particularly those women who lived on their own), I can't understand how they can make any compensatory awards fair. Especially if it's the same amount for each person. People will have had wildly different situations. Some will have been massively effected whilst others not so much.

That’s not a drawdown. A drawdown is taking all the cash you’ve have built up and putting it in funds and living off, hopefully, any profits.When changes to private pensions were introduced in 2015 ,one of the new pensions that was introduced was "drawdown" which meant that I could retire at age 62 by taking a larger monthly amount initially,and then taking less each month when I got my state pension.
I still had to wait until I was 66 before I qualified for my SP , like alot of other men born in the 1950s.
And yet there are no protests or marches on Parliament from Boomer guys, some of these Waspi women are so entitled and think the world owes them a living.
You’re thinking of a PIE (Pension Increase Exchange) pension where you get a higher amount until your state pension kicks in.
Agree with your broader point by the way.

No that's an annuity. He's right.That’s not a drawdown. A drawdown is taking all the cash you’ve have built up and putting it in funds and living off, hopefully, any profits.

Pre internet , nobody from the gov wrote to them with the changes that applied if they were born before a certain date , not entitled, owed ffs, be a man and fight your own corner on your pensionA law was passed by Parliament in 1995 so that women were brought into line with the state pension that men had for the previous 60 years.
How much notice do these entitled women need.
100 years notice and they would still be fucking moaning.

Thanks pal. I knew I was correct, my financial advisor explained it all to me during 2 or 3 visits when he set it all up for me at the beginning of 2017. I had 4 private pensions and he merged them all in to one draw down with Prudential.No that's an annuity. He's right.

We did manage to gather news and other information before the Internet existed, usually from newspapers, magazines and TV.Pre internet , nobody from the gov wrote to them with the changes that applied if they were born before a certain date , not entitled, owed ffs, be a man and fight your own corner on your pension
These pension changes were well publicized on all 3 mediums I have mentioned, they were headlines all through the mid 90s. I knew all about them, and they didn't affect me at all.
