Avoiding pension scams

9th September, 2015

To stand the best chance of avoiding falling prey to a pension scam, individuals need to be aware of the common signs of fraudulent deals:

any offer of a free service by an organisation or individual you have no previous relationship with
a rate of return that is substantially higher than those offered by other investors or products
feeling pressured into making a decision
being offered the chance to access your pension before the age of 55.

Outstanding service and knowledge. Very highly recommended. We met with Keith Senior for advice relating to starting a new business in Bury. Keith met with us for close to an hour at no charge and provided both a referral and excellent advice. Everybody we met has been a pleasure to deal with and we feel much more confident moving forward with our plans. You will be in good hands with this firm.

You are obviously very knowledgeable and able to relate your expertise in an easy to understand way. We will definitely use Jacobs Allen Chartered Accountants again and believe that it was a relatively small amount of money, well spent to have this financial and tax review.

I chose to come to Jacobs Allen for advice as I felt you as Chartered Accountants were clearly knowledgeable yet very approachable, friendly and welcoming. To have all of my queries dealt with so professionally in a relaxed manner allayed any concerns I had about my tax affairs, past present and future. Your advice giving me a clear plan of the actions I have to take and your offer of assistance to put it into practice helped enormously in focussing my attention on building my business.
