I was impressed that the adviser took the time initially to understand my situation before going through all of the options. She was very knowledgeable but also happy to go at my pace, making sure that I understood everything.

Very good experience .
It was important conversation for me. I think that we should prepare our questions for the interview in advance - it will be much more useful when you talk to a professional adviser.

The hour telephone call

The hour telephone appointment was well presented and the resulting summarised report allowed me to have a full appreciation of the options and tax implications of all options. This enabled me to be well prepared to discuss my options further with my pensions adviser. Pension Wise representative was very patient, professional and kind. Thank you

Clear explanation of tax and annuities

Clear explanation of tax in relation to withdrawal from pension pot, and choices for annuity and levels of investment, regarding a relatively small amount of funds currently held. Very helpful.

The advisor listened to my specific question, she asked further questions to gain a clearer understanding of my situation. Then she was able to decipher how best to support me, by signposting and giving a clear explanation about the options available to me. Couldn’t have asked for more. Open, honest and professional.
