Pension credit review was created by Webbs
Hi. I got a letter on 15thaugust from the pension service saying about your pension credit.
We need to make sure you are getting the right amount of pension credit. The current amount you get is based on the information given to us previously. We now need to check this information to keep our records up to date.
We need to check that the information we are holding will be correct on 18th September 2025.
To do this we will contact you in the near future by letter or telephone. Please note there is no need for you to contact us.
When we do contact you in the near future we will be asking for some details that will include:
Savings and investments
Housing costs.
Personal or work related pensions.
Any other income.
It would be helpful if you have these details to hand when we do contact you in the near future by letter or telephone.
It’s now the 14th of September and I’ve heard nothing. I’ve been on pension credit for 3years is this review normal or should I be worried I’ve got no savings and a very small pension from the merchant navy and nothing has changed in 3years.
I’d be grateful for any help tks

Nothing on this board constitutes legal advice - always consult a professional about specific problems

Hi Webbs
That sounds like a standard letter that some people receive when they are chosen randomly to be asked these questions. I can't be sure, but I don't think it's something you should be concerned about.
Hopefully, they will come back to you to alleviate your worries.
