Defined Contributions Pension (Help)

Post by yubin282 »

I've recently made up to full-time after 12 years service and would like to up my pensions payments from 1% to the maximum allowed (5% i believe), does anyone one know how to do this without calling the pensions hotline

Also how do i get passwords and such for zurichs website if it works

Defined Contributions Pension (Help)

Post by RobertT »

The highest ‘matching contribution rate’ is 6% employee – 9% RM. You can choose to put in more but you won’t get any more off RM.

There 3 ways to contact the Zurich pension people:

By post:
Zurich Royal Mail Service Team
PO Box 1073
Cheltenham
Gloucestershire
GL50 9NN

By email:
royalmailserviceteam@uk.zurich.com

By phone:
0800 092 8263

If you’re already paying into the RMDCP you should already have your passwords, etc. But if not then get in touch using the methods above.
