The Way We Work & How We Treat You


How The Process Works:

We only need a minimum amount of information in order to help you. You can either give us a call on 0845 83 87 811, or complete our online Request Quotes form.

Our online Request Quotes form will ask for some basic personal information about you, and also details of your existing pension. You then have a choice...

You can either give us the rest of the information we need via the more detailed part of the Request Quotes form, or you can sign a letter which we will send to you to authorise us to talk directly to your existing pension provider about your pension fund.

Once we have all the information on your existing pension, and what it is that you are looking for from your annuity, we then request illustrations from all the pension providers. Each pension provider will provide us with a personalised illustration detailing the monthly income they would be prepared to offer you.

We pull all the information together, and provide you with a report which gives you your options in a clear and simple to understand format. Don't forget, we're also at the end of the phone if you need any help understanding what is being offered to you.

Once you have decided which pension provider best meets your needs, we will then help you apply. Our aim is to make the whole process as hassle-free as possible, and if you request, we can also complete all the necessary paperwork for you.

You do not pay us a fee. The pension provider who you select to provide your annuity will pay us a commission for placing the business with them. Some product providers allow companies to determine a level of commission above the standard rate being offered. We NEVER take anything more than the providers standard commission.

However the only commitment we require from you is that once we have conducted the research, if you do decide to go with one of the quotes, then please use us. If it is your intention to use our resource, cost and time to take our quote and give the business to another advice company, then please don't expect a Christmas card from us!!

 

About Us :

We are an independent financial services company, authorised and regulated by the Financial Services Authority. Being able to offer you pensions from the whole of the UK market is very important, which is why we value our independence.


  At Platinum our aim is simple:

To give you all the information you need

To do it in a way that is simple, easy to understand and transparent

To deal with you in a manner that puts you at ease

To put you in control of the situation

To deal with you no matter where you are in the UK

 


We are a family run business offering a nationwide service. We have learnt the importance of offering our customers a professional service and giving them information that is clear and easy to understand.

In recent years we have moved most of our business onto the internet and have tried to make sure that we bring our customer service values with us. If you speak to any of our telephone support team we are confident that you will find them easy to talk to, knowledgeable and professional. That is why we claim to offer "good old fashioned personal service via the internet".

We feel that by being completely open and transparent with our customers, they will respect that and place their business with us.

We can deal with you exclusively by phone and email, which means you can manage your financial affairs at a time that is convenient to you.

Nothing more to say! We won't charge you a fee, no matter what the outcome.

We generate our income in the same way as most other companies in this area, namely the annuity provider pays us standard rate commission.

If you decide not to take up any of the quotes, there will be no fee payable.
