August 2022 pensioner payslips duplicated / January 2023 payslips not produced – an apology
Approximately 800 pensioners have been provided with duplicate payslips dated August 2022. These payslips show payments already made in August and should not have been reissued. Please ignore these if received.
Payslips due in January 2023* have been delayed but should be available very soon.
Rest assured, payments for January 2023 were made:
- On time
- For the correct amount.
If you have access to 'MyPension' (the self-service portal), you will be able to view the breakdown of your January 2023 pension payment immediately.
*Payslips aren’t automatically issued each month. We only issue payslips automatically in March, April, and May or when certain events occur (for example a tax code change or where the income paid (after tax) is £5 more than the previous month). So do not be alarmed if you do not receive a payslip for January 2023.
The Fund are investigating how this error has occurred. We apologise for any inconvenience caused.
