Best online tech sites

There's lots of really useful sites out there for technical research.  I've got quite a few and would like to see what everyone else uses in case I have missed one.

My 'goto' is Standard Life Techzone.  Really good for most things.

Barnett Waddingham is good for OPS.

Techlink - we subscribe but I find it hard to get on with.

Royal London for pension information.

I find that it gets the balance right in giving you enough technical information in a readable way. Unlike Pruadviser, which is good but very difficult to read and get what you need easily.

Definitely Techzone and Royal London are the best provider sites.  I also find the HMRC Pension Schemes manual quite useful on occasion:

Gov.uk is also good for tax and pension things; it explains it plain English too, which is quite refreshing!

FYI The government has moved from the RSPM to The Pension Tax Manual. However RSPM is quite good for obscure historic bits.

We recently started subscribing to TechLink and I love it. Has gotten me out of a few pickles!

I agree Standard Life is also the go to tech site.  Scottish Widows have some decent stuff as well:

James Hay tech team is also very good if you use them.

I agree with  previous comments and with Richard's assessment of Techlink - difficult to find what you're looking for but they will answer specific questions posted.  For me:

HMRC

Standard Life Techzone

Scottish Widows

All links above.

Also the PFS knowledge base can be useful as can the Study texts if you have access. 

If anyone still uses books (!) John Woolley's Financial Planning with Trusts 2015-16 (www.claritaxbooks.com) is a bible.

Pru adviser site has some good calculators especially on pension related matters.

My go to is Standard LIfe's techzone but I like to read Scottish Widows for the application of the tech as their case studies tend to be quite good.
