Terrific company with kind staff

I have been using KTS for several years now to manage my mom‘s pooled trust and have been nothing but satisfied with the service as well as the ease of using their portal/website. I have also managed a cousins trust for several years with another company that is not nearly as good as KTS. I have never had any issues with KTS, but anytime I’ve had to contact them for questions. I have only been met with kindness, consideration, caring, and true expertise as they are well knowledgeable in their business. Furthermore, they are always willing to help. My experiences have only been positive and I am more than happy to recommend them.

Working with KTS has been a wonderful experience! I must say that it would be hard for me to single out any one employee who has been great to work with as I never had a bad experience with any of them! I was managing a trust for a close friend of mine for almost 5 year 2021-2026, and it was never a problem submitting bills and having having everything paid on a timely basis!

Great Experience

We have been using KTS for 3 years now and from day one they have been fabulous. From trying to learn how to navigate an elderly parent being on Medicaid and using a pooled trust to getting it up and running, they have been there to explain and expedite everything. Customer service is great and responds quickly and all bills are paid right away.

It's wonderful to hear that our team was able to explain everything clearly, get things running smoothly, and that the customer service and bill payments have been consistently quick. We appreciate your trust over these past three years.

Geratric Care Manager…

As a professional Geratric Care Manager KTS has become my preferred "go to" pool trust" for my clients. Staff is responsive; friendly and accomodating. Client feed back also reflects my experience.

Former client

I was directed to KTS Pooled Trust by my Mother's medical social worker. We set up an account for her. All was going well. Unfortunately, my Mother had to transition to a long term care facility and we know longer needed the account. I was very happy at how easy it was to cancel the account. It was a hard time and the ease in which we were able to deal with her account with KTS was really appreciated.

We're really sorry to hear about your mother's transition to long term care. We know how difficult that time must have been for you and your family. We're glad we could make closing the account as easy and stress-free as possible during such a challenging period. That truly means a lot to us.

Highly efficient disbursement processing

KTS processes my disbursement request each month promptly and payee receives funds within 1-2 days. Always top notch service; never an issue with deposits or disbursements. In working with them for 2+ years, I've only had to call CS once and that was a very positive experience too.

Your trust means a lot to us.

At the start of the process

At the start of the process, it was a little confusing, we had never heard about a pool trust. We did our research to better understand what a pool trust was. A friend suggest KTS for our needs, working with KTS has been a pleasure so far. Any time we had a question the staff was very receptive to our needs and assisted us. I would recommend KTS to a friend.
