What our clients say
“Since my initial thoughts on moving my pension from a blue chip company final salary to a draw down pension option, Martin Birch from Belmayne IFA has expertly, conscientiously and efficiently guided and advised me on every step of the process. My decision could not have been reached without the informed, structured and tailored service provided by Martin. My individual circumstances at the forefront of Martin’s advice provided me with the confidence and reassurance required to make the major step to move to the retirement I envisioned. Sound, ethical, tailored advice. Very lucky to have found such an excellent financial planner.”
Mr Vernon, Derby
“I would wholeheartedly recommend Belmayne’s financial advisors. David Bashforth has looked after my investments for around seven years and is always very polite and professional, taking time to explain everything clearly. He is prompt at returning calls and I have had no hesitation in recommending him to several friends.”
Miss Jowitt, Sheffield
“Belmayne have been superb from start to finish! After taking advice from two large national financial consultants and being surprised at the size of their fee structures and disappointed by their approach, I decided to give Belmayne Chartered Financial Planners a try. I was reassured that all the partners are chartered financial planners and met Jon Stevens, one of four partners within the company. Jon guided me through a very complex pension transfer process, which involved lots of meetings and telephone calls, he was always available to meet or talk and offered expert advice and support at every stage. I have since recommended several friends to Belmayne, all of which have been similarly impressed with the service offered.”
Mr Stevenson, Sheffield
“After becoming increasingly disenchanted with my existing financial planner I decided it was time to seek alternative advice. Spotted Belmayne in the Dronfield Eye and just down the road from me as well. Made an appointment to see Ben and was impressed with his easy going manner and professionalism. After a very thorough analysis of my financial position he came up with a recommended plan. In spite of the choppy financial waters we find ourselves in the investments he advised are performing well and I am pleased that “Captain Smalley” is steering a steady course for me through all the upheaval.
To sum up I regard Ben as a true professional but also a friend as well.”
Mr Meeds, Sheffield
