A
Message from the Grasshopper Club Committee We understand that the
death of a loved-one is difficult at the best of times, but it is made even
more challenging by the current COVID 19 pandemic. The accompanying guide has
details on how best to notify Willis Towers Watson of your loss which will enable
your benefits to be paid as soon as is physically possible. However, should you
experience any problems whatsoever, please do not hesitate to make contact
with me so that I can attempt to bring about a swift resolution to your
problems although I am unable to guarantee success. If you still have your
bank account(s) with Barclays then click on this link for further practical
advice: https://www.barclays.co.uk/what-to-do-when-someone-dies/ In the meantime, we hope
that all of our former colleagues will continue to enjoy good health and to
see as many as possible at our forthcoming Regional Lunches once ‘Lockdown’
ends and we get back to normal daily life. Your Committee, The Grasshopper
Pensioners’ Club. |
