Retirement Account’s online functionality

We updated our servicing and online support as we faced COVID 19, but these measures are now the new normal and ways of doing business. So we’d like to make it clear what servicing can be done fully online, and what support is available if you need it.

Current service status

If you have any queries once logged into our Retirement Account relating to an existing policy, call our contact centre on 0800 640 9200 (open from 8:30am till 6:00pm, Monday – Friday).

If your query is in relation to a new business submission then please use our new business tracker for real time updates. You can find this by selecting the ‘track progress’ button on your client’s policy.

Our current status on Retirement Account servicing:

  • We will be maximising our online resources, such as IVR and our call back facilities to reduce call wait times and abandonment rates
  • We will be making every effort to maintain our SLAs around money in and money out and will flag any potential delays in the event of reduced resource
  • Back office performance remains stable on critical transactions

Online services

In the face of the current social distancing rules enforced by Covid-19, our Retirement Account has been made more resilient to help you manage your clients business online in these uncertain times.

Setting up a new Retirement Account policy for a client on our enhanced journey is a signatureless process, meaning there is no need to send us any client declaration. 

Where existing clients wish to top up their policy or increase regular contributions, we have introduced a temporary measure, by which we do not need the client declaration. Instead, advisers can complete the top up adviser declaration and send this via our secure email portal to pruwealth.ranewbusiness@prudential.co.uk. We cannot accept this documentation in any other manner.

We have also detailed below all transactions that you can carry out online.
