Armed Forces Pension Scheme (PO-23859)
Ombudsman’s Determination
Outcome
I do not uphold Mr N’s complaint and no further action is required by Veterans UK.
My reasons for reaching this decision are explained in more detail below.
Complaint summary
Mr N disagrees with the methodology used by Veterans UK to calculate his pension debit. He says that it results in a higher debit than that specified in the pension sharing order (PSO).
Mr N contends that the calculation of the debit goes against the ethos, intent and purpose of the Welfare Reform and Pensions Act 1999 (the 1999 Act).
