State Pension Amount
State Pension Amount
by johnred » Tue Dec 06, 2022 12:09 pm
Hi!
Is there any obvious reason (which I am obviously missing!) why my current state pension payment is roughly 2/3rds of the usual amount?
Hoping someone knows to save me from DWP's phone system lol
TIA

Don't sound right ive found the pensions people really helpful just recently. Think there's no escaping the call. Dad's was about a fiver less due to exchange rate but certainly not a 3rd.

They've only got 2/3rds of their normal pension, can't be the 10 euros surely?

The amount of pension you get is based on the months you paid national insurance. Minimum 10 years /120 months. Max( 50 years. Sorry. )I only worked in the UK for 13 years of my life. Payin NI for 13 years my pension which started in October is based on that £66 per week.

This statement is totally irrelevant to the original poster’s question and also makes no sense at all. Max 50 months???

The state pension is paid in different amounts depending on when you reached state pension age. There are different amounts for a basic and full state pension. The Gov.uk website will explain how this works.

The poster says “usual amount “ so he knows how much he “usually “ gets. His question is, why is it 2/3 different this time than last?
