I twice had to realise pensions. The first time, when shopping around for a deal I contacted several agencies: the first time, the offer from the Retirement Desk was considerably better (by up to 25%) than any other I could find. The second time I went straight to the Retirement Desk and and got an offer better than my original pension provider. Many thanks to Kay Martin.

Kay made the transition from my old pension to the new pension so easy and quick. She also importantly kept me informed and upto date through the whole procedure. I would recommend Retirement Desk to any one who wants to enhance their income from their current pension providers

Kay Martin, gave me regular updates by voicemail, email and comprehensive answers to many pension related questions. Funds moved and pension paying out very quickly, within a month. I am well pleased with the customer service given.

I was considering taking early retirement and looking for guidance in what to do with my pensions that I had accumulated over the years. I contacted the retirement desk and spoke to Wendy. From the outset she took control of what I needed to do and what my options were, sending me a quotation from an appropriate provider within 24 hours. During the process of transferring the pensions they kept me up to date at all time, ringing me with updates exactly when they stated they would, unusual these days. Whenever I rang them with a query they always answered my question to my satisfaction. If Wendy was not available, one of her helpful colleagues could deal with the query. The whole process took around 2 months from the day that I decided to proceed, which included a slight delay from one of my existing pension providers. They delivered exactly what they said they would, very pleased! I would have no hesitation recommending The Retirement Desk to any of my friends and family 10/10👍🏻

Wendy explained the process we needed to go through and was not "sales oriented" at all. She kept me up to date, without any harassing phone calls or emails and provided the best deal. I obtained quotes from other sources but The Retirement Desk was my final choice and produced the best deal. I would thoroughly recommend this company. Thank you, Wendy.

Unlike some of the other companies I contacted, the Retirement Desk gave me the information I required without the heavy sales pitch. 10 out of 10 for service. I was kept up to date with every step of the procedure after signing agreement.

After trying to deal directly with pension companys I was very happy to come accross Retirement Desk. I wanted to buy annuities for 2 modest pension pots, it took a couple of phone calls from Kay Martin and signing of a couple of forms, now (took about 3 weeks) I have the tax free sums and a very satisfactory annuity in place - Thank you Kay and The Retirement Desk.

The service I got from Kay was outstanding.The third party holding my monies were continually stalling and Kay never gave up chasing them on my behalf.Thoroughly recommended.

There should be a box marked 'exceptional' to tick for the service I received. My consultant, Lisa O'Beirne went above and beyond to help me. Not once did I have to contact her to find out what was happening. She was always one step ahead of the game and was very sympathetic to my needs and for that I thank her greatly! I will certainly be recommending The Retirement Desk to others. Thank you again!

The Retirement Desk offered clear and comprehensible options for my consideration. Wendy O'Beirne was extremely patient with me throughout as I was very unsure what the best option was. She also kept me well informed of any changes that could influence my final decision. I feel The Retirement Desk obtained a really good deal for me - Many thanks.

I have dealt with many IFA's through my career in accountancy. Lisa at Retirement Desk was friendly, quick, and efficient. She knew everything I wanted to know and was able to tell me the time scale to set up my plan, and the amount I would receive without the normal hard sell jargon associated with IFA's. I would recommend RD to all my customers.

Excellent and prompt service throughout the process of transferring from an AVC and annuity plan from the Prudential. Lisa was highly supportive, friendly and helpful at every point.
