John and I have had a couple of initial chats regarding pension advice, and I have found him to be an easy guy to get along with, nothing was too much trouble. I feel well informed by John on a number of potential pension scenarios that fit my requirements, and have these to review at my own pace, no pressure selling whatsoever.

A work colleague and friend recommended John Wright to me a few months ago as I needed advice on the management of my pensions for my target retirement. After an initial telephone call and two video calls he is continuing to educate and advise me on what is the minefield of “pensions”. In my opinion John (and his team) have given me honest advice on the way forward over the next year as I approach retirement and will act on my behalf only when he feels the time is right and I will get good value on my pension pots He is knowledgeable and keen to do the best he can to make things easier for his clients and is always approachable to answer any questions that I may have.

Please provide a brief comment about your experience with John

He made his case to head office for the DB transfer, but unfortunately it was declined to advise. It is a shame that there is a disconnect between the "Financial Advisor" and the people responsible for actually providing the "advice" (Head office). It is head office who get the final say, and since TPWM is so big, many of the smaller FA/IFA also use them and so you will get scuppered trying them as well. It's not really TPWM's fault, it's an industry that is designed to keep your pension where it is, so if you can afford to lose or not need your entire pension pot, and you own your own home and have a fantastic high paying job, and have a few other pensions as well, you may be one of the lucky ones!

John helped me to navigate the the difficult process of pulling together 5 pensions spread between 5 different companies and moved them into a true potential fund which has worked very well through the difficult times of Brexit and then Corona virus effects on the UK economy. True Potential provide its customers with a daily update on the markets and a weekly roundup via YouTube which is brilliant and is not subject to the negativity of MSM

John was very open and transparent with my options.

Retirement. Pension transfers.

How has John Wright helped you?

John and his team managed the transfer of both my pensions to True Potential. I had very little to do during the transfer period as communication, advice & speed of transfers was excellent. John is enthusiastic & very customer focussed. Both he & his office team respond quickly at all times. His fees are the best I could find & not based on the value of transfer. This concerned me initially but quality of service has continued post transfers.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

Yes.

What could they have done better?

True Potential use an online app which allows you to monitor your investments and withdraw funds. This has not been as reliable as I would like and the Goals section needs development to cover customers in my age category. I have made John aware and recently I have seen some improvement.

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

At age 65 I had a private pension pot with a company that had changed hands several times over the past few decades. The company did not offer suitable options for accessing the pension pot in future (eg drawdown). Also I felt that I never really had a grasp on how much I was paying out from the pot annually in terms of fees and I wanted advice on what to do , I.e. ‘stick or twist’ and if ‘twist’, some recommendation for where I could transfer the whole pension pot to.

How has John Wright helped you?

John thoroughly questioned me about my general understanding of investment in general, and my attitude to risk. He obtained information about the existing pension policy and explained the situation concerning fees. John made a case for and explained an alternative form of managed fund (Important to me as previous was passive) provided by True Potential Investments (but not anything outside of True Potential ‘stable’ it should be noted) and provided clear information about one off and ongoing fees for transfer.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

I wanted and got a transfer of a pension pot to a managed, diversified policy. I am clear about the fees I am paying for both the investment and the percentage etc paid to John as a Financial Advisor. These appear to me to be fairly standard charges. (My only comment is that the pension funds available via TPL didn’t really offer much at all on the ‘socially responsible’ front, but hopefully this might change in future).

What could they have done better?

Nothing really. John was very helpful and competent throughout the whole process and our virtual meetings worked well. The reports and general information I received by email were very clear.

Transfer of pension from a company scheme to a self-invested plan.My wife is approaching retirement age so needed prompt advice to determine whether she was best accepting the scheme's annual salary or transferring elsewhere.

How has John Wright helped you?

John educated my wife and I in the differences between the lump sum and annual salary offered by her company scheme, and the transfer of fund value into her own self-managed scheme. He was able to explain in non-technical terms - so we were best placed to make our decision. John explained the risk, the benefits, and the rationale behind his final recommendation. There was no hard sell. John also offered to investigate my own scheme with a view to comparing cost models etc. Similarly - no pressure or hard sell - just informed unbiased analysis.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

Yes - the transfer has now taken place and the funds invested in the new scheme. We have full visibility of valuation via the online portal / mobile app offered by True Potential.

I don't recall much mention of historic performance of the recommended fund or its performance relative to industry benchmarks. There was reference to an anticipated annual return - but less graphical evidence of it being achieved.

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

I met John 20 years ago initially to review my mortgage, which he supported us with then we moved on to help and guidance about my pensions.

How has John Wright helped you?

John secured the best mortgage deal for us at the time taking into considerations of our life and current circumstances. He then moved on to support me and my husband with our pensions, again to get the best deal for us both

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

Yes, on both accounts.

What could they have done better?

I would honestly struggle on this, every time I have contacted John, he has come straight back to me and fully supported my query, taking the time to really explain every detail to ensure our understanding. I cannot think of anything else he could do better to support us.

John:

Thanks for your kind comments Ally.

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

I had approached an advisor previously in order to consolidate various legacy pensions but had reached a point where I needed to then understand my pensions situation and John was recommended to me by my brother who had spoken very highly of the service and ongoing relationship that John provided.

How has John Wright helped you?

Initially John was very keen for me to understand my pension and was prepared to spend time educating me on how it all hangs together. Previously, at the mention of 'pensions' I would have glazed over and this is why I had remained in a position of ignorance about one of the most crucial elements of my finances. This is no longer the case. John has provided me with a level of understanding where I now have a genuine interest in something that I had felt was very much a specialised area and out of my grasp. He was keen to address every element and not just the larger 'pots' of money.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

Absolutely and more. I now understand my pensions, have full access to look at them via the online dashboard and have complete confidence that any matters will be dealt with by John and his team, and that my pensions are being actively managed and my interests looked after. John goes the extra mile, he's also assisting with me sorting my will out and his team have been excellent with additional knowledge when I wanted to understand my credit file, not pension related, but because they had the expertise to advise, they were happy to help. Excellent all round and I now enjoy my pension related calls!

What could they have done better?

I honestly can't thing of any improvement suggestions. I am a stickler for outstanding customer service and this is exactly what I've received.

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

Initially we contacted John for general financial advice and mortgage advice.

How has John Wright helped you?

He arranged a very good mortgage through a high street lender to buy our council house which has been a good investment. Later after I contacted him about retiring at 55 he discussed and arranged both mine and my wife's pension arrangements, laying out everything so simply even I could understand it!

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

So far so good, apart from a drop due to the (2020) COVID breakout. We didn't change anything with our pensions and a discussion with John quickly reassured us that was the best option.

What could they have done better?

We don't think he could have done more and is always a pleasure to chat with. He's sometimes as difficult to track down as Lord Lucan (just joking John!) but obviously a very busy and popular advisor.

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

I was looking for somebody honest and reliable to help guide me through what I thought would be a very difficult subject to understand. But working with John I now understand more about pensions and savings.

How has John Wright helped you?

John has been my advisor for many years now and has helped me transfer pensions, drawdown pensions & understand how much I will have to live on when I retire. I have recommended John to all of my family and I know that my children have taken my advice that John is trustworthy and an excellent financial advisor. They are in the process of setting up their pensions online with John.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

What John has achieved for me is far beyond the outcome I was hoping for and I’m really looking forward to my retirement and being safe and secure financially.

What could they have done better?

I truly don’t think I could suggest anything that John could have done better! I trust his judgement, his advice, his handling of companies & documents on my behalf. He has an amazing team who support him and myself and together they are amazing!
