What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an adviser?
I had lost contact with my previous advisor from years ago, after moving out of the area. I wanted someone to review a number of policies (life assurance, pensions, investments) and advise on the most appropriate, tax-efficient options.
How has Robert Shire helped you?
From the first time I spoke to Rob, I knew he and I could do business. Clearly very quick to catch on (you don’t need to explain stuff to Rob more than once), superbly knowledgeable, Rob is an absolute pleasure to deal with. The advice he has given me has been worth every penny.
Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?
Yes, indeed. And across a number of products. I now have hands-on control of my SIPPs being able to self-manage whenever I want.
What could they have done better?
Nothing. I have recommended Rob Shire to friends and family without the slightest hesitation.
Robert:
Thanks for the swift response and 5 star review.
