Your health could mean a higher income

    Helpful and relatively easy to complete

    Went through the form filling in myself and although lengthy it was fairly straightforward to complete. This was then followed up by a phone call from Pension Potential to complete the process and commence set up of my annuity with the chisen third party.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

What is an annuity?

An annuity turns some or all of your pension pot into a guaranteed income. Most people buy one for life, so it keeps paying however long you live. You can also buy one for a fixed term.

Once an annuity is set up it usually can't be changed or cancelled, which is why comparing the whole market first matters.

Will I see my quotes straight away?

Yes. Your quick quotes appear on screen in about 30 seconds, with no sign-up. Personalised quotes, which take your health and lifestyle into account, take less than 10 minutes to request and also appear on screen.

Can I talk to someone?

Yes, any time and for free. Book a call with one of our annuities consultants at a time that suits you, or email us at hello@whistleforadvice.co.uk. There's no obligation.

Will you call me?

We don't make sales calls. You can get and compare your quotes entirely online. If you apply, we will sometimes need to speak to you to progress your application. When that happens, we'll ask you to book a call with your dedicated expert at a time that suits you.

How much does it cost?

Helping you understand your options and get quotes, however long it takes, comes at no charge and with no obligation to use our service. If we arrange an annuity for you, we receive commission from your chosen provider, which is taken into account in calculating your annuity rate.

Is this financial advice?

No. This is guidance, not advice. We compare annuity quotes from the whole market and you choose. We don't recommend a particular product or provider.

Which providers do you compare?

We ask every major UK annuity provider for a quote at the same time, including Aviva, Canada Life, Just, Legal & General, LV=, Scottish Widows and Standard Life. If a provider declines to quote, we show you that too.

Why do you ask about my health?

Providers may pay a higher income to people with certain health conditions or lifestyle factors. We only ask with your explicit permission, use the information only to get your quotes, and share it only with the providers quoting.

How long are quotes guaranteed for?

Each provider guarantees its quote for a set period, shown next to the quote. That gives you time to think it over before you apply.

Where else can I get help?

Pension Wise, from MoneyHelper, offers free, impartial guidance on your pension options. You can book an appointment at moneyhelper.org.uk or by calling 0800 138 3944.
