Like the majority of other reviews here i am in the same boat, invested £7,500 back in 2019 as a fixed return ISA, WHAT A MISTAKE, it seemed that after that date i had no control over my investment whatsoever, i was sent from pit to post with numerous account managers, to name a few; Marco Burgess at Astute capital Leeds. Liam Yarwood of Reyker securities London. Douglas Burns of GPM Invest, corporate director. I have tried to call Douglas on many occasions but as soon as he hears who is calling him the line goes dead, I also ventured into another investment which he encouraged and advised me about with Stripe Homes, the investment was to invest £15,000 for a monthly return of £187.50 which has all been good until i recently checked my account and it hast been going in as regularly has it should have, I’ve called the company on 3 occasions now with the same reply “leave it with us and we will look into it and get back to you”, like others on here I’ve tried contacting astute on many occasions, they don’t take phone calls any more just emails, and your lucky if you get a reply. At the moment i have sent astute an email just requesting the original amount that i invested, and am awaiting a reply. I am also contracted to pay a monthly fee to J. Brearley for I’m not sure what as they are not doing anything for me, and every time i have called them the conversation ends the same, you need to contact Astue, just basically going around in circles. I have just recently retired and was looking forward to putting this money into my pension funds. Thanks for pointing me in the wrong direction Douglas Burns and the others mentioned, not sure how you sleep at night.
