Complaint summary
Mrs N has complained that she has suffered financial loss due to an administrative error by USS. As a result, her pension benefits were lower than the annual projections provided between 2017 and 2020.
Mrs N has said that USS’ compensation offer of £500 does not adequately compensate her for her loss or provide sufficient redress for the distress and inconvenience she has suffered.
