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

We had a great independent financial adviser that we liked very much. But we just felt that they had moved to a higher strata client base than us and some recent advice seemed a bit risky for us. And the investment fees were quite high for this market.

How has Rachael Jacobs helped you?

She has given me confidence in my semi-retirement plan, explained all options very clearly and without any pressure whatsoever. I decided to consolidate two pensions and also make regular contributions into the pot, now that our mortgage is paid off.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

The process was quick and highly efficient.

What could they have done better?

Nothing at all. Delighted with the service and I feel that Rachael is very honest. She's so down to earth too.
