On January 10, the government announced the long-awaited – and sometimes feared – pension reform. On the menu: raising the retirement age from 62 to 64 and a new minimum pension for retirees. But when Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne revealed the details of the plan, Internet users flocked to the Info-retraite.fr site, which obviously encountered some technical problems.
According to Internet users on Twitter, the platform, which includes simulators to estimate the number of quarters already counted for calculating your pension, has become inaccessible to some users. As Tech&Co points out, the simulator displayed a “502 error” page around 6 pm, which could indicate server strains.
The platform, which operated intermittently on the night of January 10, is run by Union Retraite, a public interest group (GIP). The latter groups the 35 mandatory, basic and complementary pension organizations.
To use it, all you have to do is connect via the FranceConnect tool to see your career progress. Next, you must enter your date of birth to see your full retirement date. A function that, evidently, still does not take into account the pension reform, around which the debates have only just begun.
