What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an adviser?

I had 2 company pension schemes , and was looking to review them and potentially transfer to one single pension .

How has Neil Smith helped you?

Neil has helped me transfer my 2 existing company pension schemes in to my own pension with an excellent well established pension company with the risk profile I was looking for at a reasonable cost

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

Yes, without doubt. Neil is a highly qualified and very experienced professional in his field , and also very personable and straightforward person to do business with.

What could they have done better?

Nothing comes to mind really.

What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an adviser?

I was seeking advice about transfer out of a defined benefit pension scheme, and general financial and pension planning

How has Neil Smith helped you?

After a very long and rigorous (and at times frustrating) process, I was able to determine that my personal circumstances supported moving out of a defined benefit scheme and Neil was able to support the process through to completion

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

Yes

What could they have done better?

Charged slightly less! However, to some degree you get what you pay for and the personal service was excellent - made more difficult during the Covid pandemic

Neil:

Thanks for the kind review, Ian. Much appreciated. Defined Benefit transfers are expensive to transfer due to the complexities of the work involved, indemnity/liability insurance requirements, etc but trust you are happy with the outcome. Any questions, please do call me. Neil

What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an adviser?

I knew of Neil before he became an I F A so it was an obvious decision when Neil set up his own company that I would join him.

How has Neil Smith helped you?

Neil has guided me through transferring my pension when it was practical to do so. He has helped me by putting money into trust for my daughter and granddaughter and helped me with all decisions regarding finance. He knows what risk we are prepared to take and advises us accordingly.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

The outcome from Neil handling our finances has been very favourable and hopefully will carry on in the same way.

What could they have done better?

To be honest I don't think that there is anything Neil could have done better he his extremely professional in everything that he does.
