Very helpfull and professional

I spoke to Martin Coe who was extremely helpful with my request regarding the drawdown of my pension and everything has been sorted on the same day. I also spoke to Bailey to begin with who took all my details before passing me over to Martin which made the transition seemless.

Good going on dire

I used to think that Royal London was a reasonable organisation, but once you try to move away from them the problems start.
They try to block your move at every step.
On top of that, when you actually manage to get the progress moving - they then block your account to ensure that you cannot see the information about what your have invested up to the point of requesting to leave.
