Bank holiday opening hours
Our DB pension administrator, Railpen, will be closed for the UK Bank Holidays in April and May.
That means they will be unable to reply to enquiries about your defined benefit pension on the following dates:
- Friday, 18 April - Good Friday
- Monday, 21 April - Easter Monday
- Monday, 5 May - Early May bank holiday
- Monday, 26 May - Spring bank holiday
If you have questions about your benefits during this time, you can find lots of useful information across this website, including:
- the member’s guide – to help ESPS members understand their benefits and options
- frequently asked questions - with answers to some common pension queries.
- useful links – to websites that can provide extra guidance and support
You can also log in to your myESPS account to access your pension record, update certain details and send Railpen a query to be answered when they return.
If you need help logging in visit the member log in page, where you’ll also find guides to completing certain actions online, including updating your details and making an Expression of Wish.
Railpen will be open as normal on all weekdays outside of the bank holidays. You can find their telephone number and email address on the get in touch page, under questions about the DB scheme.
