How much will you get at state pension age? Britons urged to check

Many of this group, born in the 1950s, asserted they were not provided with ample notice concerning the alterations.

It is currently at 477 signatures, which falls short of the 10,000 needed for a Government response. 

At present, Britons can use the state pension forecast as and when they wish to check the status of their sum.
