What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an adviser?

Personal finance is a complex world. My wife and I thought we would benefit from having some expert advice.

How has Jonathan Scott helped you?

Jonathan instils confidence in his professional expertise. He is patient with his advice and takes time to explain the complexities. He also has time for a chat, to take an interest in us, as people as well as clients.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

Broadly speaking, yes.

What could they have done better?

We would appreciate further explanation about how the charges are set for his service to us. We've had the same puzzlement with other financial advisers in the past. This is probably more down to our inability to understand the system rather than any fault on Jonathan's part but it is something we'd like to get more clarity on.

Jonathan:

Thank you for sharing your feedback John! I appreciate your thoughts about charges and I understand that financial services can sometimes feel a bit complex. I’d be happy to provide further clarity on how the charges work and make sure everything is fully understood. I’m glad to hear that you’ve felt confident in the advice provided, and I value the opportunity to connect with you both, not just as clients but as people too. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you need anything or have additional questions. Thanks again.
