Pension Transfers

I was unable to access 2 pensions via drawdown so had to transfer them. I decided on Pensionbee and they have been extremely efficient and helpful and keeping me up to date. Beney my BeeKeeper has been exceptional throughout. I knew this was not a quick process but they were on top of things from the beginning

Speedy pension set up

The most important factor was the speed with with Pensionbee allowed me to create an account and set up my pension. This was hugely important to me and they nailed it. Unlike other providers who explained me the constraints and reason for the length of their process, pensionbee just got on with it and it looks less than an hour to be done.

I’ve been using PensionBee and overall I think it’s really good, especially for how simple it is to manage everything in one place.

The main thing I like is how easy it is. The app is clear and straightforward, and combining my old pensions was hassle-free as they handled most of it for me. I don’t need to chase anything, which makes a big difference.

Paying into it is also very easy. I can set up a monthly payment and forget about it, or just add money whenever I want. It only takes a few minutes and there are no extra charges for contributing, which is good.

Super helpful customer service

Super helpful customer service - got a bunch of questions when I first sign up to them and the customer support was super helpful.

I was with another company and they screwed up with my direct debit and a lot of the settings. PensionBee on the other hand was a breeze to all that I had gone through. SO thank you for the help and for everything
