What about other Serps savers?

Every pension entitlement that was build up under the Serps system before April 2002 will remain in place, with the money paid out on retirement. But from this point on workers start to qualify for the S2P payments. It is all taken care of automatically through National Insurance records and there is no need to change anything yourself. The actual amount you will get from either Serps or the S2P will be calculated when you claim the basic state pension. A claim form should be sent out 4 months before you reach retirement age – 65 for men and 60 for women. If you don’t get one ring 0845 300 1084.
