Review for Neil Wilson

September 2026

What could they have done better?

Neil kept me up to date with everything and he answered any questions very promptly whilst the process of moving the pension progressed. I was also impressed that Neil came to my house to conduct the meetings. I don't think anything could have been done better.

What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for a financial adviser?

I wanted to retire and required specialist advice about opening a private pension to access pension income

How has Neil helped you?

Neil set about understanding my needs and was very thorough when going through various options looking at all my saving, pensions and lifestyle criteria to obtain the best way forward for me to take a pension income to bridge the two year gap before I receive my state pension. He looked across a range of pension providers and especially those which would split my pension pot across different portfolios to best grow my investment. We had several meetings to make sure I was totally happy before I proceeded.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

Yes - Neil's advice has enabled me to draw a pension income for my needs. The pension is being invested very well and I am very happy with the results so far.
