Apart from the kick on the nuts that is frozen pensions,the authorities are now trying to further shaft the expat UK pensioner.
DWP and HMRC are not joined up; a friend has just received a letter from (in response to my online query) stating "we confirm that we have been advised that your weekly pension is £147..."
It is not; it is £135 pw and has been frozen for several years.
My friend is now paying more tax on his occupational pension as a result of HMRC advising an incorrect tax code.
Add this to the list of things that p!ss you off ..
