Recently remortgaged with Financial Fortress and Matthew & Keiran were fantastic throughout, super easy experience and would recommend.

I've been employed all of my working life, never really had money to splash around, paid into my company pension but never had a final salary pension unfortunately. Yes, most of the time the company contributed to my pension pot, which helped. Life was busy enough without me being interested in my pension future, it was sorted, right? What happened?
Well, I got older and due to company schemes changing I had a couple of separate pension pots. So in 2020 I did one of the best things I should have done a lot earlier... I went to see a Financial Advisor and it just happened to be Financial Fortress.
The first thing that happened was, I learnt a lot about pensions and became more aware of my financial future.
I allowed FF to manage my pension pot and they made my money work so much harder for me than it had ever done before. Yes they take their share of my money, which is less than the big boys, but with that I have "free" unlimited access to any financial advice I feel I need. Whether that is for me personally or my family, it was there.
On a yearly review, I talk to the same advisor as previous years and talk about more than money.
Thanks to everyone at Financial Fortress I'm in a much better position than I would have been and I can't recommend them enough. Cheers
First Annual Review
Last year, I took my elderly parents to see the team at Financial Fortress to help consolidate my parents’ finances and make the management of them easier for their retirement years. Wayne and his team were just brilliant and talked us all through options, in plain speak, making decision easy to understand. 12 months later, we’ve just been for our first annual review and it’s just so reassuring to know that my parents’ finances are in good hands!! All of the Financial Fortress team are great but in particular Steph has been in contact regularly over the past year and has always been so professional, patient, thorough and friendly! Thank you from me for all your time and care … it means a lot with sometime so important!
Would definitely recommend!

First 12 months.
Financial Fortress have been advising us for just over 12 months on our pensions and investment portfolios.
We have found them to be professional, approachable and knowledgeable. During our meetings they have communicated at an appropriate level, understanding our needs in a friendly and relaxed setting.
We appreciate the guidance they have provided to us both.

I had an excellent experience working with Kieran
I had an excellent experience working with my financial adviser on my pension planning. Hetook the time to understand my situation, explain my options clearly, and make sure I felt confident about every decision. His advice was practical, transparent, and tailored to my long term goals. I now feel far more secure about my retirement plans and appreciated his manner, care and professionalism they brought to the process. Highly recommended.
