Latest statement on UK pension uprating
The Living in Spain Gov.UK site was recently updated to explain the plan for pension uprating:
'Pensions after Brexit The UK government will continue to pay a State Pension to those eligible in the EU after Brexit. Your UK State Pension will be uprated in April 2020, 2021 and 2022 if you live in the EU, EEA or Switzerland. If there is a deal and you work and pay social security contributions in Spain, you will still be able to add your UK social security contributions towards your Spanish pension. This will happen even if you claim your pension after the end of the implementation period. If there’s no deal, the Spanish government has proposed that they will take into account periods of work in the UK before Brexit when calculating your Spanish pension. We will update this guidance when there is a formal agreement on this. Read our guidance on pensions if there’s no deal.' So it will continue for a few years and then? |

Your pension amount would be fixed at the sum you would have recieved if you had retired the year you moved countries. If i were to retire to Barbados now (I'm 57) when I reach retiring age I will get £168.00 a week (he current pension rate) and not whatever sum it has gone up too in 2029 |

You are assuming that the UK will not have a bilateral agreement on social services with Spain within that period of time. Bearing in mind the large number of Spanish residents in the UK, I would expect that to happen.
