The value of the investment can go down as well as up and you may not get back as much as you put in.
"I found Matthew to have a ‘passion’ for pensions, and his knowledge on the subject was second to none. He was always available to discuss my queries, and never failed to return my calls within the hour. He would seek advice on anything he wasn’t 100% sure of, and appeared to have only my interest in mind.
We discussed everything in detail, and he took the trouble to fully explain the issues so I had a good understanding on a step-by-step basis. His manner was friendly and courteous yet very professional, and made dealing with him a pleasant experience. I wouldn’t hesitate in contacting him in the future for further financial advice, as well as passing my personal recommendation to my wide range of friends and associates."
Malcolm Johns, Rickmansworth
"I was pleased with the excellent service I received from Matthew Rich of Alan Seward Financial Solutions. I was given a significant increase in my pension from the one on offer by my original pension fund."
Henry Osborne, Bristol
"Matthew explained every detail in a language that I understood and made it possible for me to make the right decisions. Many thanks for all you patience and hard work."
Chris Aldridge, Weston-super-Mare
"Very thorough personal service. Non-pushy, trustworthy and knowledgeable in many areas. I had no knowledge of pensions before and I left with a good understanding of where my money is being invested. Always giving over 100% whether by email, phone or in person. Would definitely recommend."
Louise Goodman, Bath
"I wanted quick, informed advice about pensions without any jargon or hassle. Matthew was highly professional and made the whole process much easier. I felt confident he was helping me to make the right decision for me."
