Highly recommend Jade Hull from Foresters
Jade Hull our financial advisor was so helpful and supportive when we were deciding what to do with my son’s savings now he was 18. He has additional needs so needed everything explained in the correct way to help him have the correct understanding. Jade was fantastic at this and super patient. We felt Jade was so amazing at what she does so decided to open Junior ISAs for my younger children and savings accounts for myself also. Highly recommend Foresters and especially Jade.

Be careful with this Company they have telemarketers calling to sell life insurance, If you sign up for the life insurance and call them a back a week later they want let you cancel, they will they your money you have no ways to cancel, I called my bank to close my account so they want take money from my account on the due date, the bank said if they take money from me I can dispute it and get my money refunded. They are located in Canada.
Very good experience with foresters
Very good experience with foresters. Very easy to manage account and there's always someone available to help when I've needed it. I haven't needed too much help throughout the years which is a great endorsement because I'm not the most tech savy. My son was very happy with how much his money grow while in his children's trust fund and he will continue to use foresters now he is an adult.

Kully
Kully guided me through the process of my money.He was excellent at explaining what the account was and helped me choose what I wanted to do.
Excellent service over many years
I've been with Foresters since I was a child and have always had a great experience. Every financial adviser I've spoken to over the years has been friendly, knowledgeable and happy to help.
More recently they've provided excellent guidance while I prepare to buy my first home, making everything easy to understand. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Foresters to anyone looking for professional, reliable financial advice.
Read the small print and stand your ground.
Halifax sold the CTF to Correaters a couple of years back and they told me I couldn't transfer it out. May sound like sour grapes, but two months before my daughter turned 18 there was 2.6k in her account. Single dad trying to give her a head start.
Today she transfered 1.14k.
Move your money now, don't take no for an answer. Lesson learned.

Tom is amazing and explains things perfectly to help me understand better. I always recommend Tom and Forester’s Financial.
Excellent service and advice
I was very impressed with the advice and support given by Ismail Panchbhaya, who is the Senior Financial Adviser at Forresters Financial, and specialises in Shariah compliant products. He made my transition from my child's CTF transfer to Forresters Financial JISA that much easier. I am very happy I made the right choice thanks to Ismail's clarity in explaining the product and process.
