Be careful do not invest with penfold …
Try to get your money back of these maggots when you need it most is impossible. Customer service is useless you can't get in touch with anyone. They will try anything they possibly can not to pay you your money. There are much better options out there. So folks do not invest your hard earned money with these cowboys. AVOID AVOID AVOID

Efficient and effective
I have been with penfold for the best part of 4 years and am delighted with the outcomes. The company is easy to deal with, the app works fine and information is always clear. They take my money, put it in some funds and make it grow at a decent level. I don't go around comparing as it's a long game but all is good.

They have been very useful for pension
They have been very useful for pension. I have used them for shortwhile but I beg my new employer to use them. This give you more flexibility to how much you like to sacrifice in salary.
