We have known Richard for nearly a decade. He is thorough in his financial advice, always very polite, and with the attention to details. I would recommend him to anyone with confidence.

Tudor Franklin were recommended to me by our neighbours and to be honest , contacting them was a great decision. The service and advice given by Bharat was excellent and very professional. The advice and guidance is impartial and at no point is there any pressure put on you when it comes to key decisions. I feel that my pension is in a much better place and will offer me better options in the years to come thanks to Tudor Franklin. I would highly recommend this company.

Brilliant, friendly service from Richard Meats. He takes lots of time to listen to your personal circumstances and views and then to find the best investment options. He then patiently explains each option in a language you can understand.

I contacted Tudor Franklin for pension advice following an unbiased.co.uk search. Bharat responded the same day to my enquiry and following an initial conversation, I made an appointment for a pension review. Bharat took the time to understand my situation and explained things very clearly. He put me at ease and it was very easy to speak with him. From working through all the information together, he was able to reassure me and suggested additional things I may wish to think about. I would highly recommend Bharat and will not hesitate to contact him again.

I would recommend these wholeheartedly. I dealt with Bharat before he started this business with Richard and the advice of Inheritance tax planning is superb and we are on the way to saving a lot of tax. These people are not pushy salesmen but advisers who give you teh facts ad let you decide.Very well qualified in their profession.
