What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Long-standing relationships are the thread running through accounts from this Adelaide practice, with clients describing guidance across the decades before and after retirement. Several buyers describe advisers who explain complex financial matters in plain language, keep them informed of developments affecting their position and answer questions readily. Brenton Miegel, Craig Kirkwood, Michelle Sanchez, Will Chapman, Lachlan Harvey and John Oliver are each named for their knowledge and patience, while Caroline at reception is remembered for the welcome clients receive on arrival.

An aspect raised across a number of reviews is the reassurance provided during market downturns, with one client recalling steadying guidance through both strong and weak investment cycles. Others value clear strategies set out for retirement, regular catch-up meetings that keep plans on track and the interest advisers show in their lives beyond finance. Families have stayed with the practice for close to three decades and across successive advisers, and administrative support and correspondence that keeps clients informed are noted alongside assistance with pension and Centrelink matters. The confidence that their interests are looked after runs through the accounts.

I have dealt with Brenton Miegel as financial adviser for at least 14 years. I have found him to be very helpful, very polite & quick to respond to my requests. I have no hesitation in recommending Brenton as a financial adviser, John Arcus

My husband and I have been seeing Craig Kirkwood for a couple of years, after he was referred to us by friends. Craig has given us expert advice and has provided a clear strategy for our retirement, which we are very comfortable with. He is easy to talk to and explains everything in a way that we can understand. He is a wealth of knowledge and shows interest in our plans outside of finance. We have already recommended him to a number of our friends.

We have been with Goldsborough since 1996 and would recommend them to anyone needed sound financial advice prior to and after retirement. Advisers then were David Basedow, then Glen Doddman, and finally Michelle Sanchez. Michelle is approachable, and keeps us informed on any changes which may affect us, and readily answers any questions we put to her. D&R T

We have been clients of Goldsborough for more than 20 years. Sam Martin has been a constant wealth of knowledge during the time he has been our adviser. Do yourself a favour and contact Goldsborough Financial Services if you are needing financial planning assistance.

I’ve been working with Michelle Sanchez for over five years, and she has been an outstanding financial advisor. She has developed a clear strategy that gives me confidence I’m on track for a great retirement. Michelle is approachable, kind, and highly professional, always taking the time to explain things in a way that makes sense. I really value how she presents different options so that together we can choose what is right for me. I feel supported and well guided every step of the way. I highly recommend Michelle.
