I can't thank you enough.

I can't thank you enough for what was to me an anxiety making task so very easy. As the old saying goes "it was a pleasure doing business with you".

Avoid!

Unprofessional and rude. Employed “deny, deny, deny” tactics while under investigation for their behaviour. Avoid at all costs.

I needed to update my Will and found Julie Granger, who prepared my previous Will, friendly and efficient. She was very helpful regarding my current situation and offered appropriate advice, which was very much appreciated.

Farcical internal probe of a formal complaint

I made a formal complaint against Kingsfords after an awful few months trying to dispute my mother’s Will, executed by my greedy sister who left me just 8%. Kingsfords’s performance was patchy to lazy and downright rude. Their compliance officer of all people refused to send a PDF to my bank which they needed to receive my tiny portion. So after overseeing a travesty of justice they were slow and hard to get hold of, even though I live in Tokyo and they knew the dispute had given me two panic attacks. The compliance officer sniffed: “I’m too busy to send PDFs” despite knowing that unless she did I wouldn’t get my money. Not content with being disrespectful and rude to a client she then HUNG UP ON ME!! I made a formal complaint. The internal “investigation” concluded there was no wrongdoing! Of course it did. It was a farce, covering their bases behind bare-faced misrepresentations of the events and weak obfuscation a child could see through. My next stop will be the ombudsman and as a career journalist (Reuters among them) I have a piece ready to find a publication, so prospective clients can be warned what to expect.

The care and courtesy that I consistently receive from the staff at the Hythe branch is exemplary. They are exceptionally careful about privacy, friendly and helpful and explain things thoroughly. My most recent encounter has been with regard to the updating of my will. The process was straightforward and hassle free and worth the (very fair) cost incurred. I feel safe and supported in my dealings with these people and trust them implicitly. I speak as a retired senior police officer and a serving local Methodist Church Minister.
