Re: Montfort International - anyone used them?
Rang him today to say we weren't going to hire him. Got a lot of spiel about how they developed the whole process etc. Then asked why we weren't going ahead. I explained that I had researched further and consulted you good folk and guess what, apparently there are people on this site who are paid to bad-mouth companies like his . So, if any of you are in the pay of a person or company that runs down others, please 'fess up now!
I think we have had a lucky escape.
BTW, won't be surprised if GLD comes on now to check up on what's going on so am going to unsubscribe from thread as I really have no interest in what he may have to say!

Re: Montfort International - anyone used them?
Like lots of you, I have found them very, very pushy and they couldn't actually help with what we wanted, so tried to ignore that and 'sell' the more profitable bits. For all I know, they might be great at what they do, but even if they are, their hard sell techniques make me think they are unprofessional and personally, I would not deal with them.
If only they didn't come across as salesmen but instead came across as professional advisors, I suspect they would be far more successful.....

A friend recommended them to us so we have not had the hard sell most people are eluding to.
So far very good service.
like most things some people will have negative experiences whilst others will benefit so good luck what ever you choose to do.

We are contemplating using this company to sort out all our financial affairs between the UK and Oz (pensions, UK mortgage, endowments etc). Has anyone used them? What are your opinions on them?
If you used an International Financial Advisor, who did you use? Would you recommend them and were they expensive? These guys are wanting £1200 +VAT!
Thanks!
