Ombudsman’s Determination and reasons

I agree that part of Mrs M’s complaint against NHS Pensions should be upheld, but there is a part of the complaint I do not agree with. The complaint is partly upheld and to put matters right NHS Pensions should pay Mrs M £500 for the distress and inconvenience caused by their maladministration.

My reasons for reaching this view are explained in more detail below.

Complaint summary

Mrs M has complained that NHS Pensions issued an incorrect retirement estimate and she decided to retire based on the incorrect figures .
