Ombudsman’s Determination

Outcome

I do not uphold Mr O’s complaint and no further action is required by the Trustee or Scottish Widows. 

Complaint summary

Mr O said that he was not given the opportunity to transfer his pension or opt out before the change happened and he is unsure if he would now incur different costs.
