British Expats - IFA in Doha

Can anyone recommend an IFA in the Doha region?

International Football Association? I am sure there is one somewhere.;)

Haven't you just emailed me?

I am Dubai based but have clients across the GCC and should be in Doha next month. Be careful who you speak to as so few are properly qualified or experienced and many just want to sell you unsuitable savings plans.

Hi yes, waiting to hear back from you. I was also trying to see if there is anyone local but it seems IFA's are few and far between in Doha! Will wait to hear from you.
Cheers

Just be wary of people who might email you from BE if you've allowed emails in your settings.

It seems we have had a few BE members who haven't posted very much, emailing people when topics such as this have popped up, but as they haven't been posting about them openly, we've not been able to stop the spam until we've been notified of it happening.

There are loads here but I don't think I've met any that are truly 'independent'. I can put you in touch with a good one who works for one of the brokers if you are interested?

Oh yeah, you're definitely one of the good eggs and follows the forum rules as well as the spirit of helping.

But there have been a few who have come out of the wood work who haven't lately.

Which is a shame as this place has worked really well for a lot of people who have posted lot of great info, even if general stuff to help people get in the right direction.

People remember this and then they get referred to when new posters start asking the same question. A couple of tax folks and immigration lawyers in the US section especially, who haven't touted people for business, but did have their site in their link with qualifications that could be verified, they get a lot of traffic from BE after helping people out over a period of time.

Not of this quick fix, pm'ing of people and diving into any old thread on a subject when they join. People remember those bag eggs as spammers too and they never get mentioned, nor last long on BE.
