Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Evaluating 139 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. People frequently share that the customer support team is exceptionally kind, patient, and professional during all initial telephone conversations. Consumers truly appreciate the very rapid response to online enquiries and the seamless process of being successfully connected with friendly and knowledgeable financial advisors. However, some people mentioned that representatives were occasionally completely unable to assist them with certain niche, highly specific, or specialized financial queries. A few other reviewers also noted that the overall journey from receiving initial advice to finally securing a formal booking or appointment took a long time.

Brilliant customer support

I got my response to my enquiry lightning fast and was met by a wonderful advisor. I’m quite new to financial literacy and explained my goals to Arbaz, he helped me straight away and guided me to what I needed to do next! Would definitely recommend Local Finanical Advice to direct you to where you need to go.
