How do you notify the Santander (UK) Group Pension Scheme of a death?

The Santander (UK) Group Pension Scheme can be contacted in a few ways:

• Call them on 0800 028 3803 – Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm
• Email them at hrhelpdesk@santander.co.uk

But register the death with Life Ledger, and you can let us notify them. There is a short process to verify your ID, upload a copy of the death certificate and answer a few questions for Santander, and then press Send. The notification has been sent and you are done. Although, you have others to notify as well, right? So carry on selecting those companies and adding the information needed for each, press Send when you’re ready for the notification to go.  You’re saving yourself so much time and stress that it will be such a relief to know that they are done. Each company will send you a confirmation email when they have received the notification, so you’ll know that they are beginning their processes.

What information do you need to inform Santander (UK) Group Pension Scheme of a death?

Most pension companies require the same information when being notified of a bereavement, so you should have the following to hand if you contact them, or include it in the initial correspondence if writing to them:

• Member’s pension scheme number and employee number
• Their National Insurance number
• Date of Death and personal details
• The name and contact details of the person dealing with the death - don't forget, if this isn't you, that you will need to receive their permission to be able to pass on their details
• If possible, any information you have regarding anyone who was financially dependent upon them at the time of their death, for example a spouse or civil partner, or children

What happens next?

As you will have already discovered, every company has a different process to follow when dealing with a death, but they will let you know what they will be doing and give you a timeframe. But the situation is still frustrating and confusing, so Life Ledger has also created a guide to help you see your way through. Its simple steps will give you a clear view of what needs to be done, but of course by far the biggest task facing you is going to be the notifying of the companies. Registering with Life Ledger will give you peace of mind and take from you the burden of researching and calling each company; it will also give you more time to focus on more important things. Best of all, there is no limit to the number of notifications you can make within the site.
