Pre Advisor Requirements Established
Whilst I have yet to have a conversation with the actual advisor, the first contact was excellent in establishing my requirements and then identifying an advisor and setting up a consultation meeting.
The conversation was factual, professional yet friendly.

Get safe and secure financial advice
The financial advisor with whom I was put in touch was courteous and forthcoming with full details of qualifications and independent status.
He was both courteous and sympathetic, a good listener and clearly very competent and professional with advice about alternative courses of action, yet careful to avoid applying undue pressure for options he might well think advisable.
He was not afraid to point out problems with the present state of my finances, without being discouraging about future remedies.
I feel as if I have taken a positive step and that I am in safe hands with my finances.

Helpful service
I found this organisation from a google search and I have to admit I wasn’t really sure what to expect. They responded very quickly and put me in touch with someone (from a separate company) who was able to provide some very helpful advice and guidance and wasn’t at all pushy. So overall a good experience and would recommend them if you’re looking for financial advice and not sure where to go.

The advice from staff at St james place was incredibly useful and informative. From the initial contact, the representatives was polite, professional, and not pushy at all. They guided me through the various actions I needed to take to consolidate my old pensions. The advisor listened carefully to my goals and tailored their recommendations accordingly. It was a smooth and stress-free process, and I'm very happy with the service I received."
