LeanneI've recently been debating whether to transfer one of my pensions. I would have needed any decision to be signed off by an Independent Financial Advisor, and I found this firm through 'Vouched For'. My sensible head said leave the pension where it is, my heart said woohoo-let's spend it! I gave the details and some background information to Brian Hill and asked for his opinion. He set out the options dependent on different circumstances and the charges that may be involved should I go down that route. In the end my sensible head agreed that it's best to leave it as it is, so no mad spending spree for me. The information I received from Brian helped clarify my thoughts, and the best thing is it didn't cost me anything. Thank you very much.
