Last year, I exposed how Capita, which administers Teachers’ Pensions, regularly matches beneficiaries to names in the death register, even if personal details differ, with the sanction of the Department for Education (DfE).
Teachers’ Pensions won’t pay me my pension – until I confirm I’m not dead The money has been withheld for two months and I’m struggling financially.
My last two months of pension payments have not been paid by Teachers’ Pensions.
Teachers’ Pensions is among the public sector pension schemes wrestling with a large backlog due to legislative changes introduced in 2023 in how calculations are made.
Incredibly, from then on, the pensioner may be forced to confirm every year that they are not the same dead stranger because, in a potential breach of GDPR rules, the system does not log a disproved match.
