Be very careful dealing with this Company.

Be very careful dealing with this company, we looked into a trust with them they are very nice up front ,if your offered a fast track be very careful you can loose all your Statutory Protections and the 14 day cooling off period.
This wasn't explained properly and we went and put the deposit down, when we found out about this we changed our minds just in case something else down the line cropped up, they gave us the deposit back but kept £195 for admin fees, there would not be any fees if we had known about this we would have refused the fast track.
On enquiring about problem they made out they were doing us a favour.Awesome.
Reply from Viva Planning below is nonsense the guy we were talking with said you will get all your money back the interview is supposed to be free enough said.

Risposta di Viva Planning

Hi
Thank you for your review.

We’re sorry to hear you feel unhappy with the outcome, however we would like to clarify a few important points.

The Fast Track option is always explained before any payment is taken, including the fact that work begins immediately and that administration and onboarding costs apply once the service has been activated. These terms are also confirmed within the documentation provided at the point of instruction.

As you confirmed in your review, your deposit was refunded, however the £195 administration fee was retained in line with the agreed terms, as the case had already been opened and processing had commenced.

We fully understand that some clients may change their mind after reflecting, but this does not mean that no work or costs were incurred.

If you would like us to review your case again, please contact our team directly and we will be happy to look into it.

Kind regards,
Viva Planning

When I was dealing with Aviva I found them very informative and Shelly whom I was speaking to was very helpful nothing was too much trouble for her, she had the patience of a saint as I’m not very good at form filling, but Shelly explained everything to me and put coloured stickers on the forms showing where different people were meant to sign. I feel safe in the knowledge knowing that my property is in safe hands.

Discussion on future financial planning

We had a video conference with Jamie to discuss our financial planning for the future. The actual process of setting up the meeting was very easy.

Jamie asked clear questions to assess at what stage we were, and he gave informative responses. At no time did we feel under pressure or felt that we would be expected to buy/pay for services. We were encouraged to take time to reflect on the changes/choices we could make. All in all a very positive experience

I had my estate planing consoltation last week and I just have to say it was such a relief. I’m 80 years old and been putting this off for far too long! The young lady who helped me was so patient and kind, she explaned everything in a way I could understand, not all that fancy legal talk.

I feel much better now knowing my wishes are written down and my neices and church will be taken care of when the time comes. I wish I had done this years ago.

Thank you again for making this so easy for me, and for treating me with such respect. I recomend them to anyone who’s not sure where to start.

Thank you for your help

My husband and I recently had a lovely consultation with Jamie. We’d spent quite some time trying to understand asset protection, but I must say we found it all rather baffling. Jamie was ever so patient—he really took the time to listen to our situation and what we hoped to accomplish. He explained everything so clearly, in everyday language that even we could follow! I feel very reassured by the options we've been given, and I’m confident we’re in good hands.
It’s such a relief to have found someone so knowledgeable and kind. I just wanted to say thank you—Jamie made a rather daunting topic feel much more manageable, and we’re very grateful for the help.

Waste of time

Had a free consultation with Jason today via later living helpline, in my opinion it was a waste of time he was unprofessional in my opinion, insulting , rude, waffled on and called me abrupt !!
At the start I asked him to confirm it was a free consultation he did but also told me he usually deals with high end clients and the cost is usually £280 per hour. I asked him to confirm there was no obligation , he seemed unhappy with this question and reminded me several times that they were a business. We simply wanted to know our options, how much each option would cost and then think it over during the weekend, he did not seem at all happy, I got the impression he wanted us to make commitments at the end of the call and didn’t want questions in my opinion.
After 30 minutes of listening to his boring unnecessary waffle and being called abrupt I ended the call and I was no wiser than when I started it.
My advice would be to avoid this company and find a reputable local solicitor. All of the above is my opinion based on mine and my husbands ‘consultation’ today which imo was a complete waste of time
You have asked me to contract you but you need to give me your contact details please. CONTACT DETAILS PLEASE

Our consultations are always completely free and without obligation, and the aim is simply to explain the available options so clients can decide what is right for them in their own time.

We take professionalism very seriously and it’s certainly not our intention for anyone to feel uncomfortable during a call. Unfortunately, we are unable to identify your consultation from the information provided, so we would welcome the opportunity to look into this further.

Please feel free to contact us directly so we can review what happened and address any concerns.
