“Really surprised at a number of negative reviews. I recently used the FOS service and found it very helpful, professional and most important of all impartial. They told the building society that it had messed up and gave them clear instructions on how to put me as a consumer in the position had the error not occurred. Very pleased with the service and will happily use them again. The service is completely free and staff is pleasant with good communication via emails and phone. Complaint waiting time before investigation began was painful at c.5 months but the service they provided made the wait worth it.”

We are now officially homeowners and we feel extremely grateful we came in contact with Nick. We would 100% recommend!!”

“I've used this company since 2015 for all my mortgage needs and wouldn't consider using anyone else. They have been brilliant, going above and beyond to provide the best of services.

“Philip Kemp has financial experience spanning many years in the industry. I found him via a google seach for advisers local to me, and he has proved to be a font of knowledge, presented in a manner that us lay people, in terms of financial issues, can readily understand. Philip's duty of care is second to none and having helped with an old pension that now will provide growth after being dormant for many years, we are moving on to investing a family legacy I have inherited with a view of ensuring my son gets full and proper benifit on my demise, and benifits myself in retirement. Would I recommed him to others, ABSOLUTLY, with Phillip you get an expert and a friend,”

I would definitely recommend her!! :)”

“Highly recommend Black and Gold Financial Services, me and my fiancé were recommended here by my grandma who had a very good experience 10 years ago, safe to say it’s only gone uphill and we will be referring all our friends and family to use them too. We are first time buys who had absolutely no idea what to do. Bobby and Lauren held our hands through the whole process, handled our questions perfectly and went out their way to ensure that we understood and were happy with every choice made. They had others such as Michael who helped us with the insurance side of things which was very helpful and comforting! At no point did we feel lost or like we had do figure it out ourselves. We are now enjoying decorating our brand new home alongside an adorable welcome package from them! Service couldn’t have been smoother and they handle anything that comes their way, thank you very much to the team at Black and Gold Financial Services!”
