“For years I've been trying to move my QROPS pension from Malta. My Expat SIPP are the only company willing to facilitate the transfer with what seemed like effortless ease and professionalism. They immediately answer all queries and now I have full control and view of my pension to dictate where it's invested. Highly recommended.”
“As an ex part living and working in USA for 24 years prior to retiring, it was a concern how to manage our UK pension once we retired. After many hours of researching, I found the website myexpatsipp. Searching the website to locate a company that can handle your money was a major concern but myexpatsipp have been a pleasure to deal with and I have no problem recommending them”
“Investing with MyExpatSIPP has been a very smooth process. We’ve been investing in a monthly basis for about 5 years now and they are always very quick to respond to any questions I have. My funds are placed in solid investment options and growth is steady during volatile times. I look forward to continuing with my investments for years to come and feel confident and assured we’re in good hands”
“Pension transfer was flawless. Web portal is a little basic but provides all the necessary information. Staff very responsive via email. Investments return is very good”

“Excellent customer service with great staff who are able get back to you timeously around any queries you may have. I would most certainly recommend them and know that my pension is in good hands.”
“I by chance discovered MyExpatSipp when I desperately needed a place to land my UK funds and was really pleased to know I could manage my SIPP myself. The staff were and still are very helpful in answering my questions.”
“First rate service and a simple to use platform. My previous SIPP provider made the transfer very tortuous but MES were patient and understanding. Couldn't be happer to have my SIPP with them. Highly recommend.”
“MyexpatSIPP is an excellent alternative to leaving funds in the UK for us that live aboard. Support has been responsive and accurate and the Online platform is good enough for most. Be aware - as a private scheme, with foreign currency options, it can be expensive so care needs to be taken to ensure fees don't erode your value. Overall, myexpatSIPP has much simplied my access to UK funds that other funds were unable to do.”
“The ability to choose from funds on set-up was great. I am only investing at the moment and have not attempted to drawdown, but I did speak with them on the phone during my initial move of pension funds and all my questions were answered in a way that gives me confidence that this was a good move. Like others I do not have a uk bank account or residence anymore and other institutions were not able to provide an adequate service. The dashboard showing investments is updated very frequently, allowing dailly monitoring if I wish. The ability to see my funds in dollars rather than pounds is great. As well as being able to see how the investments are doing in Sterling. I expect to start making drawdowns within the next year or so, and expect those to be paid into my accounts in the USA.”
“MyExpatSIPP provides a service that few others offer, the ability to move my company pension to a SIPP that does not require me to have a UK bank account and I never need to visit UK t omanage this account. I believe the fees are reasonable and the website works well for my purpose. I have had an active account for nearly 12 months. I have invested my money into various funds and do not trade frequently. So far so good, thank you.”
“Living abroad with pensions in the UK has been a struggle to say the least. At last, in MyExpatSIPP, I appear to have a provider who is both proficient and cost effective as well as likely to be around for the long term.”
“This was a super solution to the problem of maturing UK private pensions whilst living abroad. The set up process was simple, straightforward and my pension was securely transferred in a timely manner. I can thoroughly recommend this solution from MyExpatSIPP to all those in a similar situation as myself.”
“I am 57-year-old expat living permanently in Australia and had two separate frozen pensions with UK pension providers. I made requests to access part of the pension values as lump sums but was denied by both pension providers, as I was not a UK resident for tax purposes. Not only that but at the time of my request both frozen pension values were going backwards in value.
I became aware of MyExpatSIPP via online research and made contact about transferring the two frozen pensions to a MyExpatSIPP account. The team at MyExpatSIPP were extremely helpful with answering the many questions I had and after submitting transfer forms etc. both funds eventually got transferred to my MyExpatSIPP account.
I chose for the funds to go into investment strategies that had cautious growth and was recently able to get a tax-free pension commencement lump sum (PCLS) payment of 25% of fund value put straight into my Australian bank account.
As you would expect, there are annual fees for maintenance of the account and individual fees for withdrawals and other activities but they are all perfectly reasonable.
If you are in a comparable situation to me, transferring your funds to a MyExpatSIPP is the way to go.”
Hi, thanks for the positive review and feedback! Great to know you found the team helpful with transferring and that you'd recommend us. Yours sincerely, MyExpatSIPP
“I transferred my SIPP to MyExpatSIPP in December 2023 having previously held an offshore SIPP for almost ten years before that. Setting up the account was very straightforward. Right from initial contact all questions were answered quickly and efficiently without the hard sales pitch typically surrounding financial services products. The transfer of funds took several months to complete but this was due to the previous provider dragging their feet in liquidating assets and authorising the proceeds to be sent.
Once the funds were received the investment process was easy to follow and any questions were once again answered quickly and explained clearly. There are more than enough investment options to select from.
There is a refreshing openness in dealing with MyExpatSIPP. This is in stark contrast to the convoluted arrangement of my old offshore SIPP where Advisor, Trustee and Product Provider appeared more interested in furthering their own relationships than in supporting the client when issues arose.
MyExpatSIPP is ideal for anyone who is comfortable with making their own investment decisions on a non-advised platform. The website is easy to use and provides timely updates. I wish I had discovered it earlier.”
“I have now been dealing with MyExpatSIPP for over a year. I needed an organization that could manage my UK pension investment as my previous provider, (Standard Life), informed me that they would no longer provide investment services to non-UK resident clients. I have been based in Canada for over 25 years (and have dual British and Canadian citizenship). As I have no plans to permanently return to live in the UK but often travel there, I wanted leave that part of my ivestment portfolio in British pounds. From the very first contact with MyExpatSIPP all the way ythrough to manging the transfer of funds and investing in the new funds, they have been prompt and professional. I would have no hesitation in recommending their services to any other expat investors. You will not be disappointed!”
“I joined MyExpatSipp just over a year ago and I have to say I am deeply impressed by the service. You get answers to questions within a day, and requests are dealt with speedily. Highly recommended for UK expats!”
“MyExpatSIPP were a great help in moving my two old UK company pensions into a modern SIPP. I really like the platform and the different investment options available to choose from. The support is very responsive and quickly got back to me when I had questions.”
