Pension Mis-Selling Claims
Many people across the UK have been encouraged to transfer or invest their pension based on advice that was unsuitable, high-risk, or simply not in their best interests. If this has happened to you within the last 15 years, you may be entitled to compensation. At Charles Lyndon, our specialist team can help you understand whether your pension was mis-sold and guide you through the claims process with clear, practical advice.

What Is Pension Mis-Selling?
Pension mis-selling occurs when financial advisers or firms provide advice that is misleading, negligent, or fails to explain the risks properly. This often results in people moving pension savings into products that are unsuitable or far riskier than they were led to believe.
Common examples include:
- Being advised to transfer a defined benefit/final salary pension
- Encouraged to invest in unregulated or high-risk schemes
- Not being told about charges, risks, or loss of benefits
- Transferring pensions that were already performing well
- Pressure selling or receiving advice when the adviser lacked proper authorisation
Signs Your Pension May Have Been Mis-Sold
You may have been mis-sold your pension if:
- You now have less money than you expected
- You were told the investment was “safe” or “guaranteed” when it wasn’t
- Your adviser didn’t explain fees, penalties, or risks
- You felt pressured to make a quick decision
- You were advised to transfer out of a gold-standard employer pension scheme
If any of this sounds familiar and the advice was given within the last 15 years, you may be able to claim compensation.
