nina nina where u beena?

i had the honour of being interviewed this lunchtime by a remarkable individual named Nina
her subject knowledge was incredible, her patience with an uneducated former truck driver was boundless and she showed an interest in my problems relating to my pension trustees which are many and complex as if they were her own
thank you Nina, Grove and the wider world will always benefit from your skills
what an asset you have there
clone her?

AVOID

Initially things seemed positive with Grove and communication was good. Unfortunately this did not last long. I was doing a pension transfer with them, as it turned out a huge, stressful, costly mistake. They took months longer than originally suggested which ended up costing me many thousands of pounds in lost valuation of transfer fund. Communication was very poor and most milestone targets missed. They also made various mistakes in the process but never admitted liability, instead choosing to take even longer with ‘reviews’ of what seemed like their own reviews. I could under no circumstances recommend this company.

Grove have replied, I want to highlight that their reply is inaccurate, I will also be contacting them direct about this. My advice to avoid is definitely still valid.

Antwoord van GROVE PENSION SOLUTIONS

Dear Mr Beggs,

We are sorry to hear of the problems that you feel you experienced using our service. While we can understand your frustrations, I would like to assure you that we did all we could to complete your transfer as soon as possible but experienced delays with getting vital information from your scheme. Dealing with defined benefit transfers is a very slow and complex process and we do provide warnings of this along with estimates of timescales that are normally involved at the start of our process (this is outlined within our “welcome pack” brochure). When you contacted us, we immediately requested a guaranteed transfer value along with details of the early retirement options direct from the scheme. While we received the transfer value within 1 month, it took the scheme over 11 weeks to provide the early retirement figures, with them arriving just 2 days before the transfer value expired – meaning we did not have enough time to complete matters on that original value. Unfortunately, we are reliant on your scheme providing us with the vital information in good time. Regrettably, on this occasion, despite chasing them frequently, your scheme took so long to provide the early retirement figures we could not meet the guarantee date despite doing all we could to do so. I hope the above helps provide some clarity on your case but please do not hesitate to contact us if you wish to discuss this further.

Moving your pension

Grove pensions assisted in moving my company pension to a personal pension, which will allow me to retire 7 years earlier than planned.
Since the FCA have made this option very difficult Grove made the process was very swift and smooth with true professionalism throughout the process.
The communication was excellent at all times, and there was always someone to answer a question if it arose.
I would highly recommend Grove pensions for your personal pension requirements

What did i pay Grove for

Grove took an age to get it sorted three times the wrong paperwork was sent so BOC could not release the money. In the end i liaised with a very kind lady at BOC who helped sort the correct paperwork. If i had waited for Grove i think it still would not be sorted Grove even said that i could contact the companies concerned, what did i pay Grove to do, i wonder? Again they told me that the money would not be released until they received there fee as this time i would have contested the amount they charged. If Grove check their e-mails it was me that told them the money had been transferred. I am glad that i will have no more dealings with Grove as for what they did they were very very expensive and they blame every one else for the length of time it takes. I think they do not hurry themselves to justify there massive fees Because of the time scale my transfer value went up so they charged me an extra £200 for their so called services goodbye Grove never again

Nothing is too much trouble

Nothing is too much trouble, everything was explained in plain English and I was asked several times if I wanted to go through with any information again or any questions , all staff were professional and completely “knew their stuff” they returned calls when promised such a pleasure to do business with a very big thank you

Pension transfer 2021

Grove pensions managed the transfer of my pension swiftly and kept me in touch with the process at all times. On occasions when I telephoned with questions they were patient and regardless of who I spoke to the staff were knowledgeable, friendly and reassuring. Grove Pensions went above and beyond to complete my transfer and I cannot thank them enough.

Antwoord van GROVE PENSION SOLUTIONS

Thank you for your feedback Mrs Martin; we are sorry to hear that you feel you have not received the best service from Grove.
As a business we will always aim to provide the best possible service to our clients, however, timescales for processing something as complex as pension transfers are somewhat out of our control. This is because we are reliant on client schemes to provide all the information that we MUST have to ensure you are provided with appropriate advice; it is important to note that in this respect, schemes are allowed to take up to three months to respond with the initial information and they are then allowed a further three months, from receipt of the completed transfer forms to authorise payment. Naturally, we endeavour to process cases as quickly as possible (within the requirements of our regulator) but, unfortunately, advising on pension transfers can be an extremely complicated and lengthy process, no matter what the circumstances are. Average timescales from initial enquiry to completion of transfer range between 4 - 6 months and we note that your case was completed within three and half months which to be honest, is relatively quick, even more so in these unprecedented times where demand has increased two fold, particularly towards the end of last year. I am sorry you felt our fees were too high, however, they are competitive within the market and were presented to you before you agreed to proceed.

Exemplary & Outstanding

A superb word of mouth recommendation which I also endorse, with exemplary customer service & communication. Grove couldn’t do much about timings affected by legislature, markets & COVID but they absolutely did all they could to manage everything smoothly around those things out of their control & I am not only impressed but couldn't be more delighted. Not only did they deliver but consistently, personably, with diligence and humour. Phone calls confirmed with emails, utilisation of digital services & IT to expedite especially around deadlines, some of the quickest responses to emailed enquiries I’ve ever seen from a business. Every member of the team I spoke to has been amazing. Thank you, all at the Grove Team.

Excellent service & Helpful Friendly Staff.

Excellent service...other pension providers refused to help or wanted money upfront so decided to contact Groves. Glad I did as the whole process was smooth and I was kept updated. All staff I spoke to were friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble and they always answered my questions. Groves also give you the flexibility to transfer the pension to a provider or SIPP of your own at reasonable costs. Great service and hope to use again. 5 stars...

The Grove Pension Solutions

My personal experience in using the services of Grove has been exceptional from the start of the process and the initial contact from the support team through to the eventual conclusion. I was kept fully informed and updated regularly at all stages. Everyone was most knowledgeable and helpful and the actual advice process professional but well presented during all stages.

I would highly recommend their service to anyone considering doing so.

Pension transfer

Grove Pension Solutions oversaw my pension transfer with fine professionalism. The process went to the wire with the transfer going through on the very last day of the three-month deadline for my valuation. Although this was a stressful time Grove reassured me that the transfer would go through in time which it eventually did.
Overall I was very satisfied with the service and would have no hesitation in recommending the company.
