Foreign Pension Contributions - Transfer Tax Status?

Through my employer of 12 years a pension pot of approximately 250K has been amassed by monetary inputs by my employer and me. It is in funds managed by SwissLife Luxembourg. I've reached the age of 65 and am required to transfer it to my bank then to a plan. SwissLife are insisting it must go into a bank. Luxembourg is not a ROPS/QROPS, I know this but had it been qualifying the tax burden would be enormous. What are my options, I want to put the entire fund into a pension?
