Transfer UK pension to QROPS
Now my English pension has been transferred, I just wanted to take a moment out to say a very sincere thank you to DeVere Australia for everything you did to guide me through my recent UK Pension transfer to QROPS.
Looking back, I honestly don’t think I would have reached the end of it in the time you did without your guidance, patience and advice. With so many steps, requirements and processes required from my UK provider made it feel quite overwhelming.
Katie was always reassuring and clear in her explanations, that made the difference. Knowing that she was keeping things on track and informing me what was needed next took a lot of stress off the process and made it manageable for me.
Thank you Katie for all your help, it was truly appreciated.
Thomas has been incredibly helpful
Thomas has been incredibly helpful. Knowledgeable and professional. I would highly recommend him.

A really beneficial meeting for me and it was free advice!

Damon Shurville
Damon Shurville has been my advisor @DeVere since 2016
Initially Damon assisted me with my UK pension and organised the transfer of the pension abroad so that it would be working for me and also that I could access it.
Since then he has advised,guided, and supported my financial interests and goals.
We have regular communication and he is always accessible.
I’ve found Damon to be diligent, thorough, down to earth and honest when we have been discussing strategy on my financial matters.
Deeply Grateful for Thomas's Advice
I am deeply grateful for Thomas's webinar regarding changes to UK NICs and top-ups prior to the the April deadline as it will cost more after. I had absolutely no idea, so thanks once again, Thomas! Also he addressed very clearly my doubts with a private consultation afterwards, sending on promptly follow-up forms and direct addresses to act quickly.

I cannot recommend deVeres highly enough for anyone seeking top-tier financial guidance. Navigating wealth management can often feel overwhelming, but Thomas and Helen have made the entire process seamless and stress-free.
Their advice is consistently insightful, and they take the time to ensure every decision is well-understood and aligned with my goals. I truly appreciate the personalised care and expertise they bring to the table. If you are looking for a firm that combines professional excellence with a personal touch, deVeres is the place to go. A huge thank you to Thomas and Helen for their ongoing support!

Thank you deVere!
I would like to say a massive thank you to Jack Wooldridge and his team at deVere for all their advice and help moving my pensions from the UK to Australia. Jacks name was given to me by a friend who had been through the process with deVere some time before, Jack advised me on the process, my options and what could be acheived, they where excellent through out! I can safely say it was the best choice I have ever made and everything was done very professionally. My advice to anyone who is wanting to do this like me, speak with these guys and get the correct advice, do not navigate these waters alone, there are many sharks in said waters! Once again thank you Jack and the team for everything.
Highly recommended
Thomas and all his team were of great help.
All the guidance and information provided in order to help with my case was clear and uselful.
They were very kind at all times and very easy to work with.

Thomas carried out a considerable body of research work for me to clarify my options as an Australian resident and UK pension transfers.
Thomas is a pro-active communicator, clear and thorough.
He followed through and was able to show me a clear pathway in what had become a very confusing system for me attempting to do this myself.
I'd have no hesitation in recommending Thomas as a professional advisor, totally trustworthy, qualified and transparent.
Working with Zac has been an absolute…
Working with Zac has been an absolute game changer. From the very first conversation, it was clear he genuinely cares about understanding your situation, not just selling a product. He explains things in a way that actually makes sense, cuts through the noise, and gives clear, practical guidance you can act on with confidence.
What really stood out was how proactive and responsive he is nothing ever feels rushed or generic. I came away feeling far more in control of my finances and confident about the decisions I was making. If you’re looking for someone who’s knowledgeable, approachable, and truly has your best interests at heart, I couldn’t recommend Zac highly enough.
Damon Shurville
Damon Shurville from DeVere Australia has been supporting and advising me for over 8 years now and ensured that my UK pension transfer was as stress-free as possible. He Always provides timely, helpful advice ensuring my portfolio is well managed and fully meets my needs both now and into the future. If you need to move a UK pension overseas then give him a call. As we recently moved to a new Platform there has been some issues but Damon has always kept me fully updated providing me peace of mind. I would not hesitate to recommend Damon to anyone considering transferring UK pensions to Australia.
Great service from William Trayford and DeVere China.
I m very happy with William Trayford, my advisor at DeVere China. He keeps in touch and regularly checks in with me, in a meaningful way, about my portfolio. He’s always prepared for our meetings and can advise on any question. And in between meetings, he has helped out out on other issues and questions that have cropped up for me. William, and DeVere, provide an excellent service.

Great experience with deVere Spain
My working relationship with deVere Spain began two years ago, when I decided to move my pension from my previous UK provider (which I prefer not to name) to deVere. Over this period, my advisor, Josh Dixon, has worked tirelessly to ensure the successful transfer of my funds. Throughout the process, he has been consistently professional, proactive, and clear in his communication.
I can only speak highly of Josh and would confidently recommend him as an advisor, as well as deVere Spain as a company. More recently, Josh has advised me on the most suitable investment portfolio for my funds, and I am very much looking forward to continuing to work with him and his team in the years ahead.
Mr HY
Mr. Wilcox was very kind to answer all my questions, and gave very useful advice. Thank you very much!
Stuart Holmes of DeVere
Stuart Holmes, continues to impress with his deep knowledge and great financial advice. My portfolio has grown considerably beyond my expectations, and I find his advice both interesting and invaluable in planning for and now living my retirement. Stuart has the best of relationship skills and always follows up promptly on any actions he takes at our meetings.

It’s been a few months since I have started moving savings and resources with deVere and Josh Dixon has been very assertive, quick and helpful guiding me into the best position and clever options. I really appreciate his ability and recommend you to check with him.
Tremendous Service and attention to detail.
Although after a good deal of reflexion, this 61-year old (British) Portuguese resident did not follow though with the investment plans proposed by Daniel Whiting, the service, manner, careful consideration, interest shown and presentation of appropriate options delivered by him were spot-on. I experienced the superior deVere service and would recommend it to any serious customer.
DeVere China - Shanghai - Trusted, Patient, and Professional Financial Guidance
I’ve had a very positive experience with William Trayford at DeVere Shanghai. William is friendly, patient, and always takes the time to explain things clearly, which makes financial planning feel much less overwhelming. He keeps in regular contact over time rather than only reaching out when something new comes up, which shows genuine care and professionalism.
He consistently does his best to find suitable solutions and makes sure I understand my options before making decisions. I feel well supported and confident having him as my financial advisor. I would happily recommend William and DeVere China to anyone looking for reliable and attentive financial guidance!
