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.

Something to shout about

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.

We would like to thank you and your team for the outstanding service we have received over the years. I must, however, single out Carl for his personal efforts. His attention to detail and his ability to remember my history has been quite remarkable

Why am I not surprised to see such an admirable, thoughtful, organised mission from Jacobs Allen, to be there for everyone during this Coronavirus crisis?

I only thought yesterday that I would drop you a line and ask if we can keep going remotely as time at home brings helpful reflection and planning time often short-changed through busy lives.

Blooming well done everyone at Jacobs Allen!. Such an email exuding the humility we all need to more deeply reacquaint with as together we get through this wartime.

Stay well, stay safe and thank you warmly for your continued support!
