Complaint summary

Mr Aldridge has complained that City of London failed to inform him that his pension could be affected by his return to work and they are now seeking recovery of the resulting overpayment.

Summary of the Ombudsman’s determination and reasons

The complaint should be partly upheld against City of London because they failed to identify at an early stage that Mr Aldridge had been re-employed.  However, I do not uphold the substantive complaint that they failed to inform him that his pension could be affected by his re-employment.
