No but it is certainly recommended because If you fail to nominate someone for any lump sum death benefit, it might take longer for the payment to be made. The person receiving the lump sum might also have to pay inheritance tax if they’ve not been nominated using the form.

Do you expect to meet the Grim Reeper soon, a decline hastened since taking a job with Royal mail ? :shock:

Bear in mind that the trustee is not legally bound to pay out to whoever you nominate, as the form you fill in is actually just a 'letter of wishes'.

More info can found here and here.

Jeez mate, lighten up, go and have a cookie to get your blood sugar level up and take things as a joke.

BTW, working more and harder for longer will have a detrimental affect on your life (at least quality if not quantity) so the comment might not be as stupid as you think.

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.
