What Newcastle Customers Say
Working in Newcastle's digital technology sector, I had been putting off pension saving for years. The adviser made it simple and I now save £200 per month into a SIPP. With tax relief, that is effectively £250 working for my future.
After working for several employers in Newcastle, I had three small pension pots. The adviser consolidated them into one SIPP with lower charges. My total savings are larger than I expected.
My NHS pension in Newcastle provides a good base but the adviser calculated I needed additional savings. A small SIPP alongside my NHS pension bridges the gap for the retirement I want.
Running my own business in Newcastle, I had zero pension at 42. The adviser showed me how employer contributions through my limited company save corporation tax while building retirement savings.
I was confused about my local government pension. The adviser explained exactly what I could expect at retirement and helped me decide whether to make additional voluntary contributions.
At 52 with only £35,000 saved, I felt it was hopeless. The adviser created a realistic plan saving £500 per month. Combined with State Pension, I can retire with a reasonable income at 67.
