A W Dallas Financial Services Limited
A W Dallas Financial Services Ltd (FRN: 481208), trading as Portfolio Pension Consultancy, acquired the client book from S&M Hughes Ltd (formerly Crescent Financial). The firm entered liquidation on November 19, 2021.
The collapse of the company came after numerous complaints were filed against A. W. Dallas in relation to the transfer of defined benefit pensions.
Poor Advice
When the company took over the clients of Crescent Financial, the contract stated that it wouldn’t take on their liabilities for any unsuitable advice that may have been given.
Crescent Financial was responsible for operating a revolving door policy, in that clients were given invitations to meet independent financial advisors (IFAs) in order to talk through transferring their pension, with the previous client holding the door for the next one coming in.
After the company received a large number of complaints from clients, A. W. Dallas was rendered insolvent and went into liquidation.
Anyone who had dealings with the company and transferred their pension may have been given advice that wasn’t suitable. Where this is the case, it is important to have your transaction reviewed.
