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

On this occasion, we were reviewing my Will, answering my questions and reminding me about the details of the Trusts that had been set up.

How has Alan Moran helped you?

He had his daughter clearly explained the intentions and outcomes of the document as it stands.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

No, we haven't gone any further with it yet. I am hoping to receive a transcript of the meeting so I can look further at the details.

What could they have done better?

Sending the transcript promptly would be ideal as this would have hepled me review the meeting while it was still fresh in my mind. Katy had some actions to take also, and I am waiting to hear backfrom her.

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

I wanted to invest some cash from my private business into a pension and took the opportunity of transferring from 4 pension pots with previous employers in order to amalgamate them in the same plan

How has Alan Moran helped you?

Alan has assessed my attitude to risk and provided a number of options to consider for investing into a pension

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

I don't know yet, only time will tell, but I think so far so good

What could they have done better?

I am not a big fan of communicating via the portal and would have preferred direct e-mails, but understand the need to track everything
