What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Manchester clients seeking personal financial guidance, including newcomers to investing and those planning retirement, are the customers described most often in accounts of this firm. Several reviewers mention face-to-face meetings in which a designated adviser explains financial management in plain language, making complicated matters easier to follow. Gary Morgan is praised for being directly contactable and for dealing with queries promptly, while Steve Jones draws similar comments for talking through options at review meetings and for finding answers when he does not have them to hand.

Ian Taylor is credited with setting out a structured plan after a single meeting, and Alan Worthington is singled out for professional support. A recurring theme is the efficiency of currency transactions and payments to suppliers, which customers describe as prompt and transparent. The manner is friendly and unhurried, and the service comes across as thorough, attentive and reassuring rather than pushy. Questions are welcomed rather than treated as an inconvenience, and the same adviser stays reachable between appointments; clients of more than two years value that continuity. Retirement planning and investment management attract particular appreciation, as does assistance for those beginning to invest.

Five Stars all the way. I had a very productive and informative initial meeting with Phil Hay of Capstone Financial Advisers, Deansgate Manchester to explore financial advice, investment and financial planning in retirement. Choosing the best Financial Adviser who can give personal financial planning advice and guidance is a big step to take. Phil had no hesitation in putting my mind at rest. Capstone Financial specialise in retirement, protection and financial well being advice , actually being awarded 'Best Financial Adviser Manchester' at the Talk Of Manchester Awards pre Covid (2019). Whilst Phil at length explained their investment approach tailored to the individual needs, the initial and ongoing and review meetings it was pleasing to see that Capstone Financil encourage seeking Legal Advice re Power of Attorney as part of the financial planning advice. Having had family experience of the importance of an enduring power of attorney, this really encouraged me, a point that some financial advisers seem to ignore when discussing retirement and financial planning. Phil went to great length to describe how Capstone Financial Advisers Manchester provide individual personalised plans. Capstone Financial were professional, knowledgeable and helpful. They helped me to understand the various different options may be suitable for my purposes. I was impressed by Phils expert professional friendly client-focused approach. I have no hesitation in awarding 5 stars to Capstone Financial for the pension advice and overall expert financial advice.

I have retired early and wanted to fined a Financial organisation that I can trust. Capstone has from the start been professional and attentive. Their approach is confident and reassuring. I look forward to using Capstone looking after my investments and pension. My advisor Gary Morgan has been there as and when I have needed him on any questions I had and it’s been much appreciated.
