    Found myself suddenly being made redundant at the age of 58. What a shock that was !! Luckily I had saved hard with my pensions whilst employed. Sam at Celtic Finance helped me move my pensions to another pension provider and basically split it into two separate pensions, one to see me through the next few years to the official state retirement age of 67 ( so I am now retired at the age of 59 ) and one to run parallel with the official state pension in the future. Sam at Celtic was a pleasure to work with being both friendly and professional through the whole process and I would like to wish him all the best in his future endeavours.

    I am truly grateful for all the help and support Sammy & Team have provided me whilst purchasing my first home. Nothing was a trouble or too much for them, they kept myself informed throughout the whole process and helped me through the most stressful parts. I personally recommend them to everyone!
