Help your future bloom with the Scottish Widows app

There are millions of lost pension pots out there. But, with the free pension tracing service in the Scottish Widows app, it's easier than ever to dig them out and see if combining is the right thing for you.

Please note

Pension transfers require careful consideration. They're not right for everyone and there are a number of things you need to understand before deciding if it is the right thing for you. If you're not sure, we do recommend that you speak to a financial adviser. You will normally be charged for any advice they give.

The service is introduced by Scottish Widows Ltd and is provided by The Pension Lab (a trading name of Money Labs Ltd).
