Could not recommend enough. We have worked with both Niall and Colin in low quotes after originally getting a quote from somewhere else and having quite a negative and stressful experience, Niall absolutely put us at ease and explained everything mortgage protection and income protection wise in laymans terms for us to understand. He also worked with us to make an informed decision about what would suit us financially to begin with, with a plan to have another look once weve settled into our new home. Colin then finalised our policy and again made the whole process so easy, especially the medical questionnaire going above and beyond contacting underwriters to ensure we had the best cover. The lads were absolutely fantastic and great craic on top of it 😊 have already recommended to multiple friends in the same boat as us!
