Hi, sorry to hear this - you can use the Ask an Expert link to get some proper advice on this. Ask an Expert Not sure if its the work support advisor or financial advisor you should ask, possibly both. Hope you get it sorted OK.
Hi early pension cancer I see that you have already asked the question to our Financial Team about accessing a pension early.
The adviser highlighted that for the State Pension is unfortunately not available till retirement age is meet.
If your husband has a work pension and private pension then this may become available at 55 so you would have to connect the work pension or private pension providers directly.
If accessing any pension is not an option you should in any case connect our Support Line teams are available 7 days a week, 8am-8pm on freephone 0808 808 00 00 and talk with our Financial Adviser Team as they can give you advise as to the benefit you should be getting.
Also do ask about your husbands legal circumstances with regards to being paid off by his employers.
