I had a great experience with Vanessa, she is so so friendly and makes me feel supported and so that I can fully understand a Lifetime ISA and Stocks & Shares and gave me advice so that I can reach my savings goals and helped me with setting up saving for myself. Thank you Vanessa

First class service and advice
Liz was professional, patient and very knowledgeable. First class service from a first class company. Highly recommended.
Hard to get your money out..
As others have commented our daugther is due to turn 18 in 2 days, I contacted our advisor about getting the money out which he informed me could not be done until she turns 18 and she needed to go online and create an account. She has tried to set up and account today but it is saying she cannot do so until she turns 18 which means she will not be able to access the money as soon as she turns 18. Our youngest is 16 so I have reduced the payments down to a minimum and will pay into a seperate ISA with easier access instead.
So hard to retrieve child trust fund
My daughter turned 18years in August 2025 It’s now october 2025. They requested for passport and HMRC letter which she sent off but they have gone quiet. We have requested that she brings all the evidence in person to verify but they haven’t responded. I didn’t know it would be so hard to retrieve her trust fund.

If you can, ask for Cheryl Phillips!
The all-star ace-tier Cheryl Phillips is a wonderful, kind and informative advisor who really helps you to understand all of the nitty-gritty aspects of opening an ISA. I am very new to it all and she held my hand through the whole thing and I feel a ton more confident about it all now.
