Quick - Thorough - Professional Assistance

When I called, I was completely lost and surely thought it was going to be a painstaking long involved experience ... but, Margan A, came to the rescue!!
In no time I was all set, and it was a very nice experience. She has a great personality, is well mannered and extremely knowledgeable. Thanks Morgan!!

Overall satisfied

Overall the process had ups and downs, but what they really get right is having a single poc that helps guide you through it all. Ours was nelza and she was amazing. All said and done, I'd say this is one of the better custodians out there, I'd definitely recommend.

Customer Representative Help

Suvie Fogelman, the customer representative I spoke with today was fantastic. I had numerous questions and issues and she was able to help me with all of them.
Unfortunately she was not able to resolve some issues, but I have great confidence she is getting the right parties involved to get them resolved.

Morgan A made my experience 5 STAR.

Morgan A made my experience worthy of a 5 star rateing. I am not very computer literate so identifying, finding and filling out the forms I needed was very challenging. Morgan was very helpful. She gave me all of the instruction I needed and helped me fill out the deposit form and the 3 distribution forms (2 charitable and one for a distribution to me).I was soooo impressed with Morgan A.
