Updating Your Personal Details

How to change your email, phone number, address, or name

Updated over 3 months ago

It's important to keep your personal details up to date so we can contact you and meet our regulatory requirements. Here's how to update your information.

What you can update in the app

You can update the following details yourself in the app.

  • Name

  • Email address

  • Phone number

  • Age

  • Home address

To make changes:

  1. Go to My Account

  2. Select the detail you want to update

  3. Enter your new information

  4. Confirm the change

Changes to your email or phone number may require verification to confirm it's really you.

What requires contacting support

Some changes can't be made directly in the app. You'll need to contact us if you want to update your:

  • Legal name If your name has changed (for example, due to marriage or deed poll), email us at hello@joinchest.com with documentation supporting the change, such as a marriage certificate, decree absolute, or deed poll. We'll update your records once verified.

  • National Insurance number If you entered your NI number incorrectly during setup, contact us to have it corrected.

Why keeping your details current matters

We use your details to:

  • Send important updates about your pension

  • Deliver documents and statements

  • Verify your identity when required

  • Meet our regulatory obligations under FCA rules

Outdated details could mean you miss important communications or experience delays with transactions.

How long do updates take?

Most updates made in the app take effect immediately. Changes that require support review, such as name changes, are typically processed within a few business days.
