Bewdley, Worcestershire

Cre8 was recommended to me by a friend in the Financial Services industry a few years ago. I am self-employed through my limited company and had a handful of pensions from previous employment. I wanted to consolidate the plans that weren't final salary schemes and also find a way to release the cash held in my business in the most tax efficient manner. Siobhan understood my needs immediately and has been fantastic in helping me to build a new pension pot with the aim of early retirement. The annual review makes sure I can update my circumstances and ensure I am on track. As well as the pension, I have opened a stocks and shares ISA, and started a pension for my teenage daughter. I can thoroughly recommend the efficient and friendly service offered by Siobhan and her team.

My first impression on meeting Siobhan and the team was a well organised, professional and caring business. From my first meeting I instantly felt comfortable in their hands and have had nothing but sound advice and guidance ensuring I have financial security for the future. I attend yearly reviews on my portfolio and have in depth discussions at these meetings which give me confidence knowing that Siobhan is looking after me. During these meetings Siobhan explains everything in a simpler way so I always fully understand the financial legislations surrounding investments being offered. Even during the recent pandemic, I was provided with updates and a phone call to reassure me everything would be fine as regards my investments, and she and the team would be there to weather the storm with me. I cannot praise Siobhan and the team enough, and without a doubt would recommend them to anyone who is considering financial guidance. Thank you so much for your patience and guidance over the past few years – you are all such lovely caring people!

She informs and explains in a relaxed way in language you understand. Siobhan and her team are always easily contactable and you are never made to feel that your queries are unimportant.

Mark and Alison

Flyford Flavell, Worcestershire

We were introduced to Siobhan as new clients and via several reviews she gave us the confidence to take that step with the knowledge that we had a good plan that was stress tested regarding potential economic turbulence, which was a key consideration as we were emerging from covid disruption. Siobhan used her experience and specialist financial planning software to review our spreadsheet-based retirement planning and budgeting assumptions. In addition, we discussed future life style and broader considerations for our retirement to ensure we had a rounded perspective on this next exciting life phase. Our financial health review included ensuring provision for day to day living and non-routine expenditure, future provisions for our children through higher education and on to independence, NI contributions to ensure maximisation of future benefits, recommendations on taking and utilisation of tax-free cash from pensions and short, medium and, long term investments. We have been very happy with the support from Siobhan and continue to validate that our finances on are track via annual review and occasional ad hoc contact to ensure we don’t miss a good savings deal as it comes to market.

Mark and Alison , Flyford Flavell, Worcestershire.

Rob & Val

Bewdley, Worcestershire

We are quite knowledgeable about the investment advice scene and approached Cre8 because we felt we were overpaying our previous advisers and receiving an impersonal service. When we met Siobhan, we immediately felt comfortable and knew instinctively that we had found the right place. It helped that we were impressed by the company’s financial planning and investment philosophy and its approach to management charges. Siobhan has been our financial adviser for 4 years. Our meetings are relaxed, never stuffy, and we regard her as our ‘caring professional friend’. We are confident that we receive top-notch advice, tailored to our needs, and that our retirement fund is in safe hands.

Chris & Sally

Halesowen, West Midlands

My wife and I first met Siobhan at Cre8 in 2019 following a friend’s recommendation. The time she took to understand our situation, concerns and aspirations made us both feel very confident in our decision-making process with the suggestions she put in place for us. Our annual reviews since then with Siobhan leave us in no doubt, we found a first-class company to help us with our investments and future planning. Through summer and autumn 2020 we approached and engaged Cre8 to discuss a review of our plans for early retirement for my wife and I whilst we were going through the process of convincing ourselves that it was a sensible and realistic goal. We had a number of employment-based pensions and children in full time education and were keen to gain confidence we could maintain our current lifestyle. At all stages we were given all the time and help required to make our decisions and we often left our meetings with Siobhan feeling we have spent time with a family friend rather than an advisor. We are very happy to recommend the entire team at CRE8 and hope they can help you as much as they have helped us with planning for the future.
