The BBC spoke to women hit by the pension age change for their reaction to the report.
She should have retired in 2015 and had no idea that she wasn’t going to be paid her state pension. She only found out by applying for her bus pass and being told she wasn’t old enough.
“I worked hard all my life and then I had to wait a whole six years with no income.”
She had to spend £20,000 by taking a big chunk of money out of a private pension pot to re-train in healthcare, including reiki, to make some income until she turned 66.
Carole says she is angry about the level of compensation suggested by the ombudsman of between £1,000 and £2,950.
“I don’t want compensation, I want the money you have stolen from me,” she says.
