    Can anybody recommend a financial advisor who has a very good knowledge of the civil service pension scheme? I've got a very specific question about accessing my contributions in the pension. I'd be happy to pay a suitably qualified advisor if needed.

    Sorry I don’t have a recommendation but I used to work for the DWP and receive a Civil Service pension.There was a lot of info on the DWP intranet and Workshops were available. I do realise it is confusing with the different schemes now though.

    Were they as helpful in delivering your pension as the DWP are in parting with benefits for genuine claimants?

    Well we managed to keep essential payments going all through the Covid Pandemic. We didn’t even get any acknowledgement from it from the then PM as He rightfully thanked all others who continued to work through those precarious times.

    I know a bit about other public sector pensions, not specifically knowledgeable about CSPS though
