We are very pleased to announce that via our connected company, Pension Transfer Checking Limited, firms are able to arrange to have their "Occupational transfers" checked on a "pay as you go" basis. A number of firms just send in one file each quarter - there is no minimum you need to agree to.
Costs:
£480 for a DB / final-salary scheme transfer to be checked.
The main element to this service is to clearly highlight that we are not able to take-on the advice liability from completing such a check. Pension Transfer Checking Limited is NOT authorised by the FCA and has no plans to change this. The majority of cases we are involved in are linked to authorised IFA firms looking to undertake third-party checking / Compliance control of such higher-risk cases.
Turnaround times: Our expected time to complete such a check is 7 to 10 days from when we receive the complete file. However, we hope to be able to reduce this in many situations.
Getting started: To arrange for a check to be done, please contact us and we will forward our "file review service request" form and Terms & conditions. Please email compliance@ifahelpline.co.uk
