When I try to check my state pension forecast - https://www.tax.service.gov.uk/check-your-state-pension/account/nirecord - I get a message saying that the service is not working. It was like that when I tried a fortnight ago. Is it down for just me? (I.e is there something amiss with my browser?)
HMRC - Check your State Pension forecast not working?

Yeah, it's broken for me too. The service estimates I'll get over £180 but really the system will have collapsed by then so it's wrong.

Apparently I missed a full year in 2010/11 and can pay a voluntary contribution of £427.95 to rectify it.
But it also says the maximum I can get is £185.15 per week, if I make 9 years more full payments by 2050.
So do I need to do this voluntary payment or not?

Hmm.. still not working for me. Grrr...
No, waste of money. Unless of course they change the rules.

It will be the Martin Lewis pension special on TV the other night. Everybody checking their missing entitlement years.

Seems like it's working fine for me; it's correctly identified that I will get a bag of peanuts every week in about three million years.

No, it’s the new system. You don’t get to retire anymore.
Not if you can easily complete your NI record in the time you have left.

I wouldn't worry about that, the way things are going whether you are going to get a state pension or not should be the least of your worries.
I watched thier show.
If I had been on it I'd have totally said this.
I did check mine to see if there were any years where I could pay like 20 quid. But alas. No

£185 per week in whatever time in the distance, 2040's....would that even be enough for a Pizza by then?

Yes, if it goes up with inflation. It's £200 or so from April. It's not a great pension really but was never supposed to be peoples only income. Saying that the state pension alone would more than cover my monthly outgoings, and my private pension will be used for the fun stuff.
Site is working for me too @Quartz

2032 for me, and 67 now they've put the age up. It'll be 70+ by 2057 I should think...
Looking at mine I've got 42 years of NI contributions already. Did start work at 16 though...

Aye also state pension age in 2057 assuming it continues to be 68 and not 75 by then. Tbh I will likely push back the date to 70 anyways and utilise private from 60.
Edit: Apparently I have also got a COPE of £8.75 a week but am still on target to hit the full state pension anyways with plenty time to top up if needed ever.
