Hi,

Was told by my account that it would be best to setup a company pension, as it gives more flexibility.

Ran the agent and they say for a company pension, they offer (on once off payments) 98% allocation rate with a 1% management fee. Is this a normal rate/billing on once off payments?

I see another thread talking about < 100% allocation rates.
 
Actually, he just rang me back... when I told him I'd being doing some reading and could get a better allocation rate. He immediately offered me 100% allocation rate, with a 1% management charge and waffled something about it being a different contract, with a regular payment and a once per year topup option.

Always get nervous when people start changing their prices so quickly. Is this normal?

You can purchase an 'Execution Only' (no advice) Executive Pension on-line with 100% Allocation and a 1% Annual Management Charge with no entry or exit penalties. These terms are not conditional on you making both regular and once-off contributions.

If a product has a greater than 100% allocation rate; it normally means that if you want to move the funds to somewhere else, there may be an exit penalty of up to 5% in the first 5 years of the contract.
