What our clients say
“Having received poor financial advice and service from numerous advisers in the past we were recommended to speak to D & G Independent Ltd which has turned out to be the best move we have ever made. The personal service and attention to detail we have received from Darren Booth is second to none and we are very happy to have introduced Darren to our family and friends who are now also benefiting from the professional and personal service offered by Darren Booth and all the staff and D & G Independent”
George, Mavis and Darren Williams, Wrexham
“The services provided by D & G were excellent. The presentation given by Darren was comprehensive, informative, friendly and efficient. Nothing was too much trouble. I would have no hesitation in recommending their expertise to other colleagues”
John & Jean Gregg, Cheshire
I have been wary of financial advisers in the past, but dealing with Darren at D & G Independent has proven me wrong. Darren and the team at D & G Independent have conducted themselves in a thoroughly professional manner and have given me a new confidence in the financial services sector.”
