Nest ID:
Last logged in:
Some people become members of Nest because they’ve received a share of an ex-spouse or ex-civil partner’s Nest retirement pot. This happens when the court makes a pension sharing order.
A pension sharing order will be sent to Nest. This will tell us that you’ve been awarded a share of a Nest retirement pot belonging to your ex-spouse or ex-partner. We will then contact you and explain the next steps, including your two available options – either transfer this share to another pension scheme or leave it in Nest and, if you’re not already, become a member.
If you don’t tell us what you want to do within 90 days of us writing to you, the money will stay in Nest and we will enrol you as a member. At a later date you can choose to transfer your money out if you wish or leave your fund to grow with Nest.
Within a few days of being enrolled you’ll receive a welcome pack from us. This will tell you all the important things you need to know about being a member. You’ll also get a Nest ID so you can start to use your online account.
