If you took your plan out before 31 March 2017, any existing surrender charges will be capped at 1% of the funds taken or transferred, if you're aged 55 or over.
If you took your plan out on or after 31 March 2017 there won't be any surrender charge applied if you take or transfer any of your pension funds, if you're aged 55 or over.
If you're under age 55 and you choose to take or transfer your benefits, the surrender charge cap won't apply to you unless you're able to take benefits earlier than 55 due to a protected pension age.
However, if you choose to wait until you're age 55 or over to take or transfer your benefits the cap will apply.
