How has Matthew Renier helped you?

Matthew provided a very informative and quick response to my initial inquiries, using words and terminology i could digest and really get my head around was a great relief, completely putting me at ease in a financial situation in which I am not at all familiar with. It wasn't just the approach which made me appreciate the efforts of Matthew it was also the result, he managed to get me 50% more income more than i was initially offered from my pension company, would definitely recommend anyone looking to get the most out there pension pot!

How has Matthew Renier helped you?

Matthew Renier was professional and knowledgeable in his area of expertise. He was able to quickly understand my current position and explain clearly the options available to me identifying the benefits of each. Matthew made the time to meet with me both at home and work to fit in with my busy schedule, after which he priovided formal advice that enabled me to make an informed decision. Finally, he assisted with the necessary paperwork to implement the advice provided. Matthew is without doubt the best Financial Adviser I have worked with so far. I would certainly recommend him due to the diligence and integrity with which he provides his services.

What could they have done better?

Matthew did everything extremely well. I am struggling to think of a particular area that could have been improved.

How has Matthew Renier helped you?

Matthew is a pensions specialist with Retire Right. His advice is very clear and concise. He always outlines all the possible options and I never felt pressurised into taking any particular annuity plan. He is not at all "sales-y". He comes across very knowledgeable in pensions and something of an expert in his field.

Expalined things to me in a way I could understand. Faced with pension paperwork that was extremely overwhelming, once I handed it to Matthew he summarised it and showed me what I should be doing to make sure I had a plan for my retirement.

Careful presentation of the facts! Pensions can be complicated but Matthew cuts through the jargon and explains very carefully whats on offer, and gives full descriptions of products, projections and pitfalls!! Quick response times , gives time to clients like myself who are quite demanding!!!

What could they have done better?

I think the industry needs to show clearly in graphics on real time displays projections of funds , sometimes you have to wait for providers to send back figures, today these figures should be accessable and viewable by prospective clients as well as Financial advisors.....thats not a criticism of Matthew but the accessability would speed up presentations and possible decision making.

Coming up to retirement I wanted to make sure I got the best available annuity rate for my pension, Matthew helped me achieve this and I felt the way he did it was in a professional manner. I have now managed to get a lot more income in retirement from my pension plan than I was otherwise expecting, I urge others to try Matthew out as you will find you may well get a much better deal.

Nothing I can think of.

I contacted Matthew to help me out with my retirement options, after sitting down and going through what I could do Matthew found me more income and more flexibility in my income. We have set up a retirement plan for my next "phase" of retirement and Matthew has helped put my mind at ease with investing again.

What could they have done better?

Make me more money...
