Transparent - no hidden fees
• Our plans have one simple annual fee ranging from 0.50% to 0.95%. We halve that fee on the portion of your pension over £100,000
• A withdrawal fee of £150 applies in certain circumstances; when accessing your pension within the first 12 months of being with us or if the value of your account’s less than £150 at the point of withdrawal
• There’s also a 30-day cancellation policy, which means we’ll return your pensions to your old providers free of charge - assuming they’re also willing to take them back.

FSCS protected - up to 100% of value
• FSCS protection for your savings in the unlikely event that we, or one of our money managers, fails. Due to the structure of our investments your pension savings are protected through a contract of long-term insurance up to 100% of their value once fully invested with us, unlike some providers where your pension’s only protected up to £85,000.

It’s quick and easy to get started - sign up in the app
• Sign up in minutes for free
• Tell us about your pensions by sharing your provider name or policy number, then confirm you’d like to transfer
• Leave the rest to us! We’ll reach out to your provider to transfer your pension and keep you updated every step of the way.

PensionBee’s authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority.

As with any investment, the value of your PensionBee pension can go down as well as up and you may get back less than you started with.

I get that the selling point of PensionBee is to combine pensions, but when you've done that, it feels really clunky to manage/view your investments. The analytics is beyond basic. I also at one point transferred away from PensionBee for a couple of years, and transferring back has messed up my summary as it is double-counting some of my transfers. However they appear to be one of the best options around at the moment, hence sticking with them. It's just the app and website that are poor.

Constantly needs updating. Then you need to log in again using email and password,and set up a pin number again. Ridiculous. It's not helping customers,it's hindering customers. Ignore the message below,because it's actually making the customer experience worse.

Easy transfer and good application but only loss financially. They are claiming financial difficulties, but over a year they couldn't generate any profits. Lost over 500 pounds in over a year, now I am moving. Don't trust them they are not having your best interest in mind.

Just squashing a bug that was causing facial recognition unlock to not work properly for everyone. I guess you could say the phone got a bit bug eyed...
