On that point, it has been said to me that some companies seem to charge the pension fund levy to customers. I am not sure if this is when the person received the pension payment or when the person receives notice of charges but it was noted on a slip received by the person. Has the panel examined the allocation of the pension levy and whether this is being done fairly? Has the panel come across cases where the levy seems to be charged to individual customers? The person who mentioned it to me anecdotally suggested it was being described as a Government levy the customer was paying.
