Since being a client of PFM, I have been really impressed with the level of personal service and advice I have also received. Pensions and tax are a minefield of complexity to the uninformed and PFM have brought great clarity and I have learned much from Christian's advice, all provided with a very friendly and clear approach.

Rhiannon is the best mortgage broker that I have had the pleasure to deal with in 20+ years. Her personality is warm, patient and reassuring. Nothing was too much trouble for her. Rhiannon's service has been informative & efficient. She found excellent products that suited our needs and pocket. I highly recommend Rhiannon and look forward to working with her again in the future.
