The Pension Planner Avis 

Craig helped me get what I needed, but also advised on a few other things to put in place for the future. Top bloke to have in your contacts.

Nick has been instrumental in helping review and organise my finances, consolidating pensions and assessing requirements and options for my future income and investments. He sets everything out very clearly and ensures you understand. I would highly recommend.

My contact with the Pension Planner over the last 2 months has been excellent. From first communication to presenting detailed findings, the interaction has been professional & timely. My main point of contact has been Craig, and he has been friendly, informative and very open discussing my questions & concerns.
I was specifically looking for advice concerning early retirement and whether my thoughts on this were achievable. Considering there has been no cost to me for the initial consultation work, I have been very impressed with the level of investigation & details provided.
For my own personal situation, the initial investigation provided by the Pension Planner mostly backed-up my personal thoughts & plans for targeting early retirement, with no specific recommendations at this stage. I do however, with no hesitation, plan to re-connect with Craig and the Pension Planner in 12 months to review my situation & hopefully put firm plans in place as I approach my early retirement target.

Great detailed and informative discussions.
Continued support and communication.
Very happy with staff and market updates.

Craig was extremely knowledgeable, helpful, friendly and very nice to deal with.
I would recommend The Pension Planner Ltd for advise with pensions, I have more peace of mind after speaking to them.

Craig Holland has been great and was just what I was looking for in a finacial advisor. Communication is very good and he is also a really nice guy. I would definitely recommend him.

From my initial meeting and then further reviews the whole experience has been perfect. Craig’s insight and guidance has been brilliant..he takes the time to explain every type of situation and suggestions that work for me, from my experience I would recommend them to everyone that needs pension advice

Craig was proactive, engaged and very helpful with our pension planning review. Thoroughly recommended

This service was great, they communicated consistently, always upfront about what they were doing and costs and ultimately resulted in Craig saying that for my enquiry they would not be charging or doing anymore as it was a much more simple outcome than we all first thought. I and I’m sure many other value such openness and honesty, I would recommend them 100% and will return if ever I need further advice. Thank you

At a time when things were uncertain for me following redundancy, I needed to get a clear picture of where I stand with my finances and what to focus on for the future. Craig Holland has been fantastic throughout, helping to give me some reassurance on my financial state as well as great advice on what to do next. Craig's attitude, experience and approach have given me confidence the whole way through and I would happily recommend (and have done) Craig to anyone requiring financial advice!

I had a free telephone consultation with Craig on 23rd February 2026. During the conversation, due to my circumstances being straightforward, Craig advised that I probably did not need full IFA advice at this time and could obtain the relevant information from other sources (which he signposted me to) without incurring his fees. I found this to be refreshingly candid and selfless. People can be quick to take your money; Craig was not, he gave professional and fair advice pertinent to my circumstances. I'd recommend talking to him based on his candour and professionalism; at times like retirement its important to get the right advice. Thank you Craig.

The Pension Planner came as a recommendation to me. I reached out and the service was fantastic! I was kept informed on what was happening as all stages, the advise was clear and explained really well so I understood it all!
Thank you!

I had a great experience with Pension Planner. My advisor Holly was clear, concise and efficient in dealing with my pension query. The whole process did not take that long and was completed in good time. I would highly recommend Pension Planner.

With my pension age not so far away, I looked for advice and found The Pensionplanner. I met up with Craig, having spoke to him on the phone. So glad I did. He was very helpful, and knowledgeable, simply explaining options and advice. If you're looking for pension advice and come across these guys. Stop looking elsewhere. Thanks Craig

Craig explained my pension options in a way that was easy to understand and replied to any emailed questions promptly, and between him and Sheryl, the paperwork was a breeze. I would recommend The Pension Planner to anyone.

Craig from Pension Planner couldn't have been more helpful and knowledgeable. He's really improved my understanding of pensions generally and specifically my own numbers. This service is exactly what I've been seeking for a least 2 years and didn't know where to start. Really grateful for the free advice and will certainly be back in touch when I'm nearer the big day ! For now I'm safe in the knowledge I'm on the right path. Have already recommended to 2 friends! Thankyou.

This is an excellent service which I cannot recommend enough. Over a period of months, my Pensions Advisor Craig Holland left no stone unturned in collecting the necessary data from both me and my various providers, performing insightful analysis, then matching all recommended options to my investor profile and retirement expectations. I found the experience to be professional, highly competent and delightfully personable. Clearly of benefit to anyone of any age or circumstance. I am left with an overwhelming sense of gratitude.

I spoke to a number of independent financial advisers when I was looking for some help to review my pensions and hit it off with Craig Holland from The Pension Planner immediately. He was warm and friendly and clearly explained things in a way that I could understand. I learned a lot from him. Even when I decided not to work with the company on a longer term basis, Craig continued to be professional and friendly. I highly recommend him.

I got in touch with The Pension Planner to help transfer my pension from my ex-employer after taking early retirement, and I’m really glad I came across them. I wasn’t sure where to start—the whole thing felt a bit overwhelming—but they made the process surprisingly smooth.
The person who handled my case was Nicholas Pratt (Nick). From the outset, Nick took the time to understand not just my financial situation, but also my personal goals. The advice I received was thoughtful, tailored, and always explained in a way that made sense—even when the topics were complex.
In our follow-up meetings, Nick laid out my options clearly and handled the paperwork with professionalism. I felt my financial goals were genuinely understood and respected. Nick and his team kept me updated throughout, and I never had to chase for answers or wonder what was going on behind the scenes.
What I appreciated most was the sense of trust and transparency. Nick was always upfront about fees, risks, and options, and I never felt pressured or rushed into decisions. Communication was clear, timely, and proactive—just honest advice and a genuine interest in helping me make the right move.
This may not matter to everyone, but I was also impressed by how flexible their communication was. They used every mode—mobile, video calls, face-to-face meetings, emails, texts, and even WhatsApp. In today’s world, that kind of accessibility really makes a difference.
The transfer went through without a hitch, and now I’ve got everything in one place with a clear plan going forward. I finally have a proper pension strategy and feel much more in control of my future.
If you’re looking for someone who knows their stuff and offers honest, intelligent, and genuinely caring financial advice, I’d definitely recommend The Pension Planner.
Thank you, Nick and team—really appreciate your continued support.

The company guided me successfully through the minefield called "pensions". They explained things very well and responded quickly to questions and queries I raised throughout the process.
