What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an adviser?
I approached Simon in January for advice regarding my mortgage. It needed to be renewed in June and with the current rates of inflation and market uncertainty I was unsure how best to proceed.
How has Simon Mayo helped you?
Simon assured me he would look at the whole of the market and keep checking and updating until he could lock in a mortgage that was affordable and would meet my list of requirements. His communication was fantastic. He kept me completely up to date and relayed everything in laments terms, ensuring I fully understood and was completely happy.
Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?
Simon exceeded my expections. After initially agreeing to a mortgage that was suitable, he continued to check the whole of the market regularly, and managed to secure an even better rate. I am extremely pleased with the final mortgage agreed on.

How has Simon Mayo helped you since your last review?
He has stayed in touch, made sure that I am happy with everything and if there are any areas or concerns that I need to discuss. Having such great service levels makes me feel valued and not that my first engagement was just a financial transaction for his benefit. Mentally it’s so reassuring that an organisation such as this is here for it’s clients and not all about them.
