The ability to withdraw a lump sum from your pension will depend on the type of pension you receive. You’ll also need to consider the impact of taking out money from your retirement pot on your future income, so how do you fund that lump sum you need?
free2 offers the Over 55s Unsecured Loan. You could borrow from £15,000 to £150,000 and depending on your age, repay the loan over a period of 5 to 20 years. And you do not use your property as security. We take all your income into account, work out what’s affordable over the period of the loan, then show you your options.

Do you take the tax-free cash to fund your big plans?
Are you happy to give up some of your guaranteed pension payable for the rest of your life?
Should you use your savings?
free2 can arrange for you to speak to a Pensions Advice Expert from our partners at the AIR Group - you’ll get a free initial consultation to explore all the options.
You may have more limited income and don’t want to downsize to create a lump sum to fund your plans. So, what are the options?
Releasing equity in your home is another way, which is extremely popular for people in this position. It's important to understand that your home will be mortgaged and is usually sold after your passing to repay the outstanding debt, with your estate receiving the balance.
We’ll introduce you to an equity release expert who’ll help you find the best deal that’s right for you, with a choice of products from leading lenders or, if preferred across the whole market. They are FCA registered and will explore all other options alongside equity release. The service starts with a free initial consultation. If you proceed, an advice fee is payable and this will be explained in full before you are under any obligation.
