Review for Jason Wood
What could they have done better?
Not sure if this is in TPO's power , but perhaps advise exactly how to notify HRMC when first starting a Pension withdrawal. It seems to be a very common problem where HRMC put an individual on an emergency tax . The Tax Office then assume that the annual drawdown sum received is a monthly payment , remove the tax allowance and charge the full amount at 20%
What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for a financial adviser?
Having been lucky enough to have worked throughout my life since I was 16 and regularly put money way for a pension , I decided I wanted to retire by age 60. At the age of 55 , after reading many reviews decided to seek expert advice on how to achieve this goal.
How has Jason helped you?
Jason Wood expertly reviewed what I had as pension savings , advised on how they should be invested long term and built a realistic planner of what I could afford to spend once I retired. The Investment funds chosen by The Private Office (TPO) have performed well over the time I have been with TPO and as a result I was able to retire even earlier at age 59. Thank you Jason and TPO
Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?
Yes absolutely

We haven't had cause for complaint and everything has been explained clearly so I don't think there is anything specific that I would look to change
What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for a financial adviser?
I needed to amalgamate a number of pension pots and establish whether I could afford to retire
How has Mark helped you?
He arranged for the pension pots to be merged into one pension fund and provided the confidence that I was able to retire
Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?
It's only been a couple of years but so far it is going better than predicted
