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

Pension Transfer

How has Ben Lancaster helped you?

Ben helped me to transfer my pension out of a Company pension, and sorted the investment with a third party Company, taking into account my risk appetite. He was on hand to help with any queries I had throughout the process and still remains extremely accessible to me now.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

Yes, the outcome to date has surpassed my expectations.

What could they have done better?

Absolutely nothing, Ben is both extremely professional and personable and in a short amount of time has become a very trusted friend as well as advisor which is very important to me.

Ben:

Dear Tracey, Many thanks for such an excellent review, it's always a pleasure to advise you and family. Very best wishes, Ben
