What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an adviser?
I needed to free up some of my old company pension. It was a section 32 plan entitling me to greater than the standard 25% cash free amount. As it was a take the full cash free amount or potentially lose the tax free status on any remaining tax free amount, they would only release the cash if I went through a financial advisor.
How has Nigel Wvendth helped you?
Nigel after a lot of tooing and froing (including the same contraditory information they gave me in my initial enquiries) Nigel has managed to set me up with a new pension, liberate the cash that I wanted and find a home for the excess tax free cash I had take.
Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?
Pretty much. There are still a couple of things still going through as I write. It's been a slower process than I had expected, but that is down to bad information and slow processing on the side of the original pension holder, rather than any failing on Nigel's part.
What could they have done better?
It would be easy to say that the process should have gone quicker, but the delays were very much down to the old pension provider. Nigel had to chase and harry them all along the way though. One thing that comes to mind that might be usefull for some people, depending on his solution of course, might be to take people through the setting up of an account on any electronic platform that tracks the clients investment and taking them through a quick tour of how to monitor their investments. Some people are more comfortable with computers than others so a quick run through might be beneficial if an online platform is available.

What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an adviser?
Long term pension planning with short term project financing
How has Nigel Wvendth helped you?
Identified different options available in meeting our immediate goals
Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?
Yes, the outcome provides comfort and peace of mind that the optimum financial solution for our needs has been identified.
What could they have done better?
Very difficult to think of anything that could have been better. If pushed to come up with something a live on-line interaction & review of the SIPP fund in which we have invested would be interesting.
