What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Guidance spanning superannuation, investments and tax benefit matters is what clients in Mackay most consistently single out, and many of the relationships described stretch across a decade or more. Darren Cooper is the adviser named again and again, credited with sound strategy and a realistic approach, while Terri is also acknowledged for the support she provides. A theme running through the feedback is how much clients value regular face-to-face meetings and information given up front as regulatory changes reshape the industry; this steady communication is linked to robust portfolios and growing wealth.

Reviewers describe Darren as honest, friendly and easy to talk to, someone genuinely invested in helping people reach their goals. Outcomes reported include early retirement, a firmer grasp of personal finances and greater confidence about the future, with first-home buyers and those approaching retirement both finding the investment and planning guidance useful. A recurring theme is how readily clients pass the firm's name to friends and family, reflecting trust built through consistent service, and long-term clients speak of feeling secure about retiring comfortably.

We have received and acted on Darren's advice over a few years. He was recommended to us by a close friend whom had recently retired and was still doing a little casual work. As I was also approaching retirement this has been helpful with advice on superannuation, investment and tax benefit matters. We are extremely grateful for his knowledge and recommend him to our friends and others needing help.

He has been a huge help with our retirement advice. we have found him honest and have recommended him to several of our friends who have taken up his services. I would recommend Darren from Financial Advice Matters very highly.

I have been with FAM for several years and have always found Darren Cooper based in the Mackay branch to be very supportive and the financial advice I have been given has always been sound. I would highly recommend Darren and FAM if you are considering a financial advisor.

This team is great. With the guidance of Darren and assistance of Terri my husband and I have a greater understanding and sense security of our financial future.

Being a Financial Advice Matters client for many years has enabled us to not only understand our financial situation but to get the most out of it as we move into retirement. Having Darren and the team in Mackay available to advise us face to face has made the whole experience seamless. Had it not been for our relationship with FAM we would probably be not able to enjoy our early retirement. Thanks Darren and Terri.
