At first, I was getting regular “profits” and updates. It felt like I’d found a great opportunity. But when I asked for my money back, everything changed. Support ghosted me, and I panicked. I didn’t know what to do until I found someone in a similar situation who pointed me in the direction of the group on my DP. That’s what saved me.
I’ve lost money with Ballie Gifford.The funds performed well in 2020, but changes have not been made perhaps? to funds two years on. They have gone way down. Can’t afford to loose more as don’t have an income coming in. My fault for having faith in this company
I gave BG £78k of my pension fund in 2006. What an amazing job they have done since then. Today it’s 5 times bigger. Well done BG. I now need to see-risk given I’m 5-10 years off retiring. Thank you.
I've used a few Baillie Gifford investment trusts and bonds for 3-4 years (SMT, USA, MNKS and a few others) Highly recommended as they have a very good structure and management team. No wonder they are one of the best in the UK.
Many difficulties faced when seeking to transfer business away from them due to the closure of their investment trust management business. They lost the documentation, they didn't receive emails...many phone calls needed to organise a straightforward transfer. Thanks go to Fraser and Tariq for their patience and assistance.
