Selex Pension Scheme (PO-3309)

Complainant: Mr Michael Rocha
Complaint Topic: Misquote/misinformation
Ref: PO-3309
Outcome: Not upheld
Respondent: Trustees of the Selex Pension Scheme
Type: Pension complaint or dispute
Date:

Subject

Mr Rocha complains that the Trustees provided an incorrect pension statement which led him to accept voluntary redundancy.

The Pensions Ombudsman’s determination and short reasons

The complaint should not be upheld against the Trustees because it was not reasonable for Mr Rocha to rely on the statement, given an identifiable discrepancy – and I do not consider that had he known the true figure he would have acted differently.
