Ombudsman’s Determination

Outcome

I do not uphold Mr Y’s complaint and no further action is required by the Trustees or Aon.  

Complaint summary

Mr Y believes that he may have been entitled to receive an enhanced pension when he retired early due to ill-health. He feels he was disadvantaged compared to someone in full health being offered early retirement. Mr Y also feels that he was ill advised when he retired as his original retirement illustration did not mention any ill-health enhancement. 

Mr Y wants to receive an illustration showing his enhanced benefits, and to be reimbursed if he is due any additional enhancement.
