Laura of Hub Finance Solutions went through my pension with me. She had to go through the boring bits and didn't make it painful and then went through the Finance bits in a way I could understand. If I interrupted with a question she didn't sound annoyed and answered in such away I understood, at a level I was happy at and not patronising. By the time we finished I felt I could make an informed decision
Thanks Laura
Yesterday I spoke with Laura Herdman regarding my pension options. She was most professional and helpful and spent a great deal of time making sure I fully understood the procedure. Overall I was very happy with how it went.
I would like to thank Jackie Hart
for all her help , she was very professional and explained everything very clearly.
I would definitely recommend her.
She is a credit to the company .
Many thanks

The lifetime mortgage was processed quickly with very few problems. However, their valuation of my property was considerably less than the market value, which increased the interest I had to pay on the amount I wanted to borrow

Laura and Callum gave a great service. Callum is to be especially thanked as he was very patient with me and informative, he was also really knowledgeable.

My advisor was knowledgeable and listened to me. She made the whole process uncomplicated. I had approached other companies and it appeared almost impossible to attain an equity release using their systems.
Not so with HUB Financial solutions - within 8 weeks my money was in my bank account.

We spoke to Thomas McDermott about pension options and how to make the right decision for our circumstances. He was warm, decent, kind and thorough. He was an expert in his subject matter and never rushed us, ensuring we understood the process. He also gave us the time to explain our situation and guided us where needed. We felt relieved and uplifted that he would make sure we received the right pension option to suit our lifestyle and circumstances. He is a credit to the company and a wonderful human being!

Alison Wren was amazing. We looked at all the alternatives available and the solution was something I’d not considered. Highly recommended as a professional who can get an overall view. All contact was as booked and would happily use again.

Right from the beginning we were put at ease by Alison who talked us through the whole process.
At times when we didn’t quite understand some things she went through it again until we understood.
We felt comfortable and it was only towards the end we had a bit of a delay. Other than that we were thoroughly satisfied.

All communications with staff from HUB were very clear and followed up on very promptly. Our advisor, Steve, took time to talk through what we wanted and discuss our options to help us make an informed choice. He was very approachable throughout the process, responding quickly to all our queries. Once decided, everything was put in place very quickly. A very positive experience overall.

While the process was very in depth, everything was explained fully with great patience and professionalism.

We dealt with Jackie Hart. My parents were in need of additional capital to help with their expenditure. I won't divulge what, but want to stress that additional complications were present. Jackie was exemplary at every stage. She explained things clearly, double checking my parents understanding throughout. She has a very calm, clear and approachable nature and is a credit to Hub. To add, I'm an IFA dealing with my own clients on a daily basis (and as POA, unfortunately for Jackie, I sat in on the meetings). Jackie 'sings' Consumer Duty.

Steve Harris was exceptionally helpful in processing our request and additionally he was most understanding to the urgency in our case and was able to expedite the process to fit in with our requirements.
I would without hesitation recommend him to others for his sound advice and understanding of his clients position and requirements.
