Is it the money4life website and the same as Bonusplan and Flexiplan? :hmmmm

I had a quick look to refresh my memory....

Click on Menu and follow these links:

My retirement savings
Change my regular payments or move my investments
Select the fund/s you want to change / move
Click next
Select new fund/s

That's as far as I could go without actually changing anything, but I'm sure it's obvious what to do next.

Bear in mind it does say on the first page you come to after logging in, that instructions will be acted on the following business day.

I hope that helps. If not, it might be of use for people with older AVC's.

I have changed mine around quite a few times, I would expect it to show within 3 days, did you fill in the % bit, and I am fairly certain it once went into the wrong fund, a luck accident, but I now take a few snaps on my phone as a record of my changes, just in case.
