I had my review recently and he could not have been more helpful. He went into every detail and ensured I understood and was so very helpful Couldn’t recommend this company enough.
From start to finish our Mortgage application was hassle free. Ross was on hand with any query. We feared this process so much but it was made clear and easy with the help and guidance of Ross and the Team in IPF
Charlotte fully explained the reasons for her recommendations and was happy to answer any questions I had. I’m really pleased with the outcome, only wish I’d contacted IPS sooner.
Camila went through all the details in a very clear, and precise way and showed the real benefits of setting up an AVC fund. Would recommend.
From being very fearful about my pension, I now feel very secure and even looking forward to it. It is all explained very well, with different scenarios taken into account. In the end it feels like I have a pension that I can afford now and still be comfortable in my retirement.
Katie Doyle is my advisor. She explained everything in a very detailed and knowledgeable manner. We really had a good conversation regarding AVC. Looking forward to talk her again on November. Thank you very much Katie.
I’ve been putting this off for so long for fear of not fully understanding all aspects of my pension but my advisor Aoife was excellent in taking it at my pace and making sure I was comfortable with all aspects of my plans.
I have been dealing with Neil for about ten years now. He has incredible knowledge of all the products (as well as incredible patience with all my questions!). He makes thoroughly sure that he offers the appropriate products for me for now and into the future and gives me the full detail to think about before I commit, as well as providing follow up afterwards. I couldn’t recommend him more highly.
IPF have been extremely professional with me throughout the process of setting up a pension, life cover and income continuance. My broker, Jack Stevens was on hand throughout and gave great guidance on what cover best suited my needs. His professionalism and timely approach were exceptional.
You are made feel very comfortable asking any questions regaurding your investements and they listen to what you have to say, while they dont tell you what to do they do offer so much information that you find it easy to make the right decsion.
