I've just moved my entire pension (2 pensions, really, but both with the same provider) to a SIPP with Hargreaves Lansdowne.
It was entirely painless and automated - I just gave my pension details (HL already have my personal details) and then the transfer is automatic.
There was a period of a few days when the second pension didn't exist anywhere, as it was being transferred by BACS (too much for a Faster Payment, too little to justify £20 for a CHAPS payment, apparently), and took 5 days to settle.
Then I just chucked it into cheap index trackers and YOLO trades.

I need to do similar, I have two pensions that I need to consolidate now that I'm not paying into either.
Will speak to my IFA as there can be a timing question on pension transfers (especially older ones).

Also another question I’ve switched pension provider at work and have a sum with old pension provider - was thinking of moving it to Vanguard. Anyone done something similar?
