He said I would get the top rate if I pay another full year but for 53p per week it wasn't worth it 👍👍👍 A worthwhile phone call. You now have the picture clear and can make your choice as you see fit. Edited June 27, 2022 by JohnfromUK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, you have taken it up with the DHSS (or whatever they are called now) and got the data you needed to make up your own mind from the source. The way these things are set up and explained by Gov't is poor and it is often hard to get clear correct unbiased information - and there are so many 'scams' about.

It turned out that I already had enough years for 'full' state pension, but they were very helpful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
