• The purpose of the Website;

• The checking of a pension Stages 1-8.

Dear Reader,

Please be patient, there are only three workers at the coal face!

The entire objective of this website is to educate, in plain English, FSV pension holders in all matters pension particularly those in receipt of an ill-health/injury pension.

There is little doubt that all established pensions, whether correct or not, are under siege by this Coalition Government so it is essential to firstly lay out the history, the groundwork, and to provide a readily accessible specialist library of documents relating to Fire Service pensions.

This foundation work has now been accomplished.

Next we are publishing the history of the Editor’s actual case from the beginning and following it through to the present day showing the detailed twists and turns of this malicious ‘game’, the single objective of which is for the DCLG(the government) in complicity with the Fire Authorities to enrich themselves by knowingly defrauding FSVs of their just and proper pension(s).

Then using the Editor’s pension we will publish a detailed template with plain English guidance which other FSVs can use privately by substituting their own pension income figures to check the accuracy of their own pension(s).

This template work is actually completed but logic dictates that before publishing or using the template there should, as far as possible, be a sound understanding of why the correct pension mathematical formulae are being applied from the 1992 Statutory Instrument No:129 and how their correct use will result in an accurate legal balance sheet to bring forward to your pension provider when seeking answers to questions which will arise if it is concluded that there has been a substantial underpayment spread over the lifetime of the pension(s).

There are broad indications, for example, that a current Firefighter’s pensions active for 20 years may well produce an underpayment amounting from hundreds to thousands of pounds annually without considering the loss of amenity or the purchasing power denied during this time of institutionalised fraud.

Widows, partners, and beneficiaries of the estates of deceased FSVs would be well advised to carry out a similar check because any debt established by a Fire Authority during the pension lifetime of an FSV will automatically become due to the legal estate of that FSV upon his/her demise.
