What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an adviser?
I had a substantial DC pension pot that I wanted to work hard for me in retirement
How has Thomas Harper helped you?
Tom has done all the hard work of transferring the DC pot to a flexible product that will work well in various stages of retirement after extensive research and comparisons
Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?
The outcome has been 100 percent positive so far.
What could they have done better?
The timescale has been fairly long from first meeting to conclusion but I understand the work required to achieve the right result for his clients is number one priority.

How has Thomas Harper helped you?
Not only has Tom helped me consolidate my pensions, but he also took the time to educate me on the subject. He goes above and beyond to make sure you understand the process and are comfortable with everything. He has also been my sound board when I have needed advice about credit scores, loans and insurance. Tom has become the one and only person I would turn to for any financial advice.

How has Thomas Harper helped you?
He has helped me move my old workplace pension into a private pension which is much easier for us to manage.
Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?
So far yes, it seems to be outperforming my original plan but still a little bit early to tell
What could they have done better?
Perhaps a quarterly catch-up would be nice just to have reassurance that things are still on track from Mr Harper’s perspective and also to confirm that my circumstances are being reviewed.

How has Thomas Harper helped you?
Tom helped to consolidate all of my pensions into one place, and invested the total amount into a higher performing fund, meaning my pension money is now making more money than it was scattered across several places. He often reviews the performance and makes relevant changes to ensure it continues to perform.

Definitely, it's been a huge help.

What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an adviser?
After terminating my employment contract with my previous employer I had a pension fund which was locked within the previous workplace pension scheme. I had little control over my pension fund with limited access to how my pension should be invested.
How has Thomas Harper helped you?
Mr Harper has assisted me in opening a private pension scheme and transferring my previous pension into my new scheme. He has performed an attitude to risk assessment with me and selected the most appropriate funds for me given my personal circumstances.
Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?
It is too early to tell in terms of growth, however the consultations I've had with Mr Harper have enlightened me on many tax efficient mechanisms regarding private pensions and work place pensions that I did not know prior to working with Mr Harper.
What could they have done better?
To the best of my knowledge Mr Harper has completed all of the necessary research required regarding my pension. He has presented back his findings and appears to have done all due-diligence that I would expect. In my opinion Mr Harper could not have done better.

Please provide a brief comment about your experience with Thomas
After I submitted my application to speak with Tom he was very prompt in contacting me. On a Saturday no less. I was anticipating it would be a few days before I heard back but Tom went above and beyond. He was very helpful with my queries and made sure to understand my financial position so as to make well informed suggestions.
