Waited 15 mins in a queue on the phone then when someone answered me, they hung up the call!!!!
If that happens they sh9uld ring you back. I just the think the person on the phone didn't have an answer to my question so hung up on me.

Made a call.
Asked a simple question about a private pension that is nearing maturity.
Was told that it was a service that is NOT offered.
Asked again to confirm I was hearing the answer correctly.
End of conversation.
Diversity employee?
Very helpful staff member explained all my options in a very pleasant and respectful way. I understood before I contacted moneyhelper that I would not be given any financial advice, but he helped me clear my mind and signposted me to other agencies that would provide more information if needed. Very pleasant man indeed.

I asked a specific pension question, that was answered swiftly and fully. I got all the information I needed. I definitely would use it again.

Money Helper is good for general guidance on pension matters. They discussed the various options available but at the end of the day it's better to seek professional advice from an independent financial advisor to help you make the right decision on where to invest.

Reply from moneyhelper.org.uk (incl. pensionwise.gov.uk)
My experience with you was very good, I got all the information and guidance that I needed which helped me to contact the right people and the right departments, and also guiding me to make the right and best decision.

0 star review not possible but this service was useless. Was unable to give any advice at all, could not provide any guidance , connection to adviser or provide any alternative to pursue. Awful and distressing experience.

Reply from moneyhelper.org.uk (incl. pensionwise.gov.uk)
I got an appointment straight away and my options were explained clearly. I was able to take the info and explore further at my leisure. The advisor was extremely competent and a good communicator. It felt safe and worthwhile.
Really clear, helpful, patient advice, checking I understood and was happy with the info, would recommend.

Contacted pension wise to discuss my options for retirement everything was very professional and explained very clearly.
Would highly recommend

Reply from moneyhelper.org.uk (incl. pensionwise.gov.uk)
Easy to book appointment through website.
Pension Wise agent took the time to understand me, my requirements and talked me through the options available for my Defined Contribution pension.
The guidance (NOT financial advice) offered was talked through in detail and I was allowed to ask as many questions as needed to allow me to understand my options. I was provided with a detailed summary after the call and I now feel more confident around what questions I need to ask my pension provider.
For anyone who is over 50 and is thinking about retirement options, I would recommend booking your appointment with Pension Wise as soon as possible.
Extremely professional service which is free to use
