EIS Financial Services

When I contacted EIS Financial Services I needed someone to explain my pension and advise me now that I had reached 60. I had an initial meeting with Ross Adams who talked me through my sppa pension and AVC contributions, as well as setting out my options for a phased retiral. He has now helped me to move my AVC contributions so that I can have easier access if I need it, and explained the fees charged for his services. I am so glad I made the decision to get in touch with EIS Financial Services. Ross was extremely knowledgeable about teachers pensions and I will definitely be keeping in touch for advice once I have made a decision about retirement.

Ross was very approachable

Ross was very approachable, patient and knowledgeable. He made information that seemed complicated and daunting to me, accessible ; this helped me to begin to understand and plan for my retirement options.Ross provided a bespoke approach for my particular circumstances and needs including advising me about additional possibly useful products, without putting me under pressure to purchase these. I feel much more knowledgeable and confident now about my retirement planning

Another great finance meeting with Allan Lees. I learn so much every time thanks to Allan's patience, honesty and excellent explanations. Greater understanding leads to greater confidence in the decisions I have to make and to greater satisfaction. Suggestions, guidance and advice are offered, not pushed. Annual updates are comprehensive encouraging me to look again at risk, capacity, etc. After many years benefitting from Eis Financial Services I am enjoying a secure, comfortable retirement. Thank you Allan and team.

Excellent financial service

Following a bereavement I received fantastic support and advice from Danielle Griffiths. The options she gave me were explained fully and clearly, and nothing was too much trouble for her. I would have been lost without her help
