The AskPaul Experience from Start to Finish!
My partner and I could not be happier with the service provided by AskPaul. The staff supported us through each step and couldn't have been more attentive in a very new and intimidating time! Lisa, Stephen and Daniel were brilliant to deal with, and we are extremely grateful for their professionalism throughout.
Positive experience will use again
Eoin was my mortgage advisor for a long time, supporting me in obtaining the most appropriate AIP before I finally went sale agreed on a property. The online portal was very easy to use and clearly outlined what documents were required for upload, with most only needing a digital signature. This made the entire application process really efficient.
Stephen then took over my case when I moved from AIP to the offer stage, and Mark assisted with arranging my life assurance policy. It was extremely convenient to be able to organise everything through the same company.
The Fairstone / Ask Paul team were reliable, responsive, and always available to answer any queries. They made the entire process with the bank seamless thanks to their expertise, and they kept me regularly updated throughout. I would definitely recommend the team at Fairstone and would happily use them again in the future.

Exceptional Financial Review
I met with Callum last week to get some advice on trying to boost my pension. He was fantastic! He was warm, patient and ensured every step of the way I fully understood the information he was giving me.

James Dooge
James Doogue
James is my advisor and makes things very simple. Talks in a way I understand and chats to me in a way that makes me feel comfortable. I feel i can ask him a question and not feel judged for not knowing the answer.
Satisfied customer
I am a very satisfied customer of askpaul, and I’m happy to share my positive experience. I would especially like to thank my financial advisor, David Madden, for his time, guidance, and advice. I appreciated how David patiently brought me through the financial planning process and clearly explained the options available to me.
I am very happy with the service I received from askpaul, and I will gladly continue to use their expertise for financial advice in the coming months and years. Highly recommended
Mortgage
Lisa Langtry was my Mortgage advisor & took all the stress out of my first time buying a house. Lisa is extremely responsive & got back to any questions I had. I am delighted how the process went. Lisa is really patient & went above and beyond throughout. I am determined to stay in the know with my mortgage throughout the term to save. Lisa outlined what happens at the end of my fixed rate (fix again or switch). I already feel at ease about the future process of switching in the next 2 years when my fixed rate ends. Thanks again for everything
Derek Browne Phenomenal.
Phenomenal. Derek secured 100k more than our bank offered directly, our bank then matched within two days. He was a pleasure to deal with, none of the usual stress attached!
A great help
I had a very helpful session with Mr Spendlove and it helped me to gain clarity on my current financial situation and goals and plan from where I am. I have a clearer vision for moving forward now and i appreciate that. I am also enjoying the Money Made Easy book. Many thanks. I’m looking forward to speaking to you again.
