We knew John from his days in Barclays Bank as the financial advisor and moved our investments with him when he moved from the bank. He is a friendly person and has provided an overall good service

By providing us with sound advice using available products in the market. However recently we felt the offered product range is more in line with what Retire Invest have as their own product range.

Yes , somehow all advice provided did have positive outcome.
What could they have done better?
We all need to be kept more in touch and regular updates on performance of investments.

What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an adviser?
My late husband wanted some independent financial advice & found John.
How has John Hinson helped you?
Advising & managing my investments as I have absolutely no idea, other than I want them to be people & environmentally friendly. He produces a summary for each visit, which even I can understand as well as giving me more detailed paperwork (which my husband would have read & understood!)
Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?
The investments are doing fine.
What could they have done better?
Not sure as very satisfied.
