What our clients say
Ciaran quickly understood exactly what we wanted and provided very good tailored options and recommendations. He clearly articulated the positives and negatives of each decision we had to make in a way we could understand. He also took the time to have us fully understand our options and I've learned a great deal about Mortgages and Insurance and now feel a lot more comfortable with this stuff.
Shaun, Armagh
Full personal service - the package which had to be put together was very complicated and Ciaran did a fantastic job of managing the various parties and explaining and executing the necessary steps.
GC, Magherafelt
I have been self-employed for a number of years but had neglected getting a new pensions after leaving previous employments - my last two pensions having been 'parked' in occupational schemes. I turned to VouchedFor to get someone to help me choose an appropriate new pension scheme. Ciaran was first rate to deal with in every sense. He outlined my choices and explained clearly what the accompanying fee-structure was and how any investments would accrue over time. Ciaran also looked at my 'parked' current pension schemes and was able to offer invaluable advice on whether to leave them as they were or to consolidate them into a new scheme. Yes. I now have a new pension scheme organised by Ciaran as well as my other two 'parked' occupational schemes. Ciaran will continue to advise me in the years to come.
