Bloody hell, you're a hard one - I don't know how many publications you read but I was only after three guesses. My next was to be the:

And I can't figure out what all the "Game, set and match is about" when all I did was to give you the correct advice about the proposed alteration in pensions legislation?
 
Not even slightly warm Brian..... go on, have a third guess. A small clue, who said I read it in a newspaper? B)

Perhaps, I come across so shallow you just immediately jumped to the conclusion I read it in The Daily Mail. Perhaps, just perhaps, I read other publications too.
 
Nah, everyone was wrong, :P The information was taken from a publication from St James' Place - where my boyfriend has his pension. B)

So what did I read.
 
Tetley, I am sure many publications (including newspapers) are talking about it at the moment. I had been given a copy of an Annual Report of the Trustee from St Jame's Place which is where I read it. It reads at the botton: " These changes mean that you should review your pension arrangements and capitalise on the opportunities some of the transitional rules present aheard of the April 2006 deadline. We have produced a brochure "A pensions Revolution" which provides information and is available from your St James's Place Partner."

I was just gobsmacked when Brian said there were basically mistakes in their glossy brochure - and knew Brian would have presumed I read in a paper he probably regards as a comic. He was incorrect in this assumption.

Kathy, I am pleased to hear that you don't read the Daily Mail. However, you would make a very good leader writer for the paper, basing opinion on false premise.

I did not day that "there were basically mistakes" in your brochure. How could I? I haven't read it.

What I did do was attempt to put you on the right path by correcting the misconceptions that you appear to have had after reading it.
 
I do read The Daily Mail occasionally Brian - and I don't mind who knows. Will I be able to have that delivered if I move to my house near Banstead, or will if be The Financial Times or The Beano only? :confused: I take it they do deliver newspapers in Surrey? :)
 
Oops, I may have made misconceptions Brian ...my mistake. :) I will have a word with the Financial Advisor (or get the boyfriend to) when he next comes in and ask him to clarify a few points. I may just print out your response and show him that. Not sure why I am worried, as it is not MY pension. B)
 
It is not unknown for financial advisors (even those with glossy brochures) to phrase financial summaries in such a way as to encourage new business that might, coincidentally, earn commission and/or fees.
