I had to stump up a couple of thousand to bring my Wife's pension up to the normal level when she was due to retire. She took time off to bring up the kids which was nice at the time so I think they just wanted to get the child allowance back off me. That was 10 years ago now and as she's still drawing her pension so that payment has paid for itself over time.
Found about this option on the www.direct.gov.uk/statepension website.
Regards
Tony
