I have know Andy Van Geyzel since June 2013, and in that time I have come to trust him and his financial advice. I find in any relationship personal as well as professional respect and trust is important. Andy is kind respectful, really cares about his clients, and it shows. This is an expanded review.

We met with Tracey Corbett on Monday night the 9th September. Tracey has a perfect balance of being friendly and remaining professional. This is so important in this digital age where we don't all "subscribe" to the virtual meeting, but require the face to face time, so any questions or issues can be discussed, clarified and corrected.
Despite meeting in the late afternoon Tracy had all the time in the world, and at no point did we feel "rushed"
We can highly recommend Tracy as your advisor!!!

Our experience with Daniel was excellent. He is very knowlegeable and clearly explained the investement options available to us including both the short and long term implications of asset growth. There is significant uncertainty in the economy and Daniel devised an investment plan that suited to our particular needs as we approach retirement.

Judith Hill 3 months ago

I write this review, with my heartfelt thanks for the professional, caring assistance given to me by Approved Financial Planners, following the death of my husband in January this year.
Our financial planner, Tracey Corbett, provided invaluable assistance steering my family through the paperwork required to settle my late husband's estate. Her caring, professional approach helped me negotiate the more difficult financial aspects of this task by offering time and support that was most appreciated.
My husband's passing has dramatically changed our circumstances and at this time of review, Tracey's planning skills are clearly evident as we chart my way forward. In the the following months I will be confident to proceed, knowing that the support of Approved Financial Planners staff, especially that of Tracey, will enable me to achieve a sound financial future.

Dan Stevens has been our financial planner for over 10 years, I made contact with Dan after many years of dissatisfaction and poor performances from our previous financial planner.
Dan has been absolutely fantastic in every aspect of financial planning for myself and my wife Kerry, we are confident that our retirement future is assured with Dan’s planning and backing.
Dan’s diligence, experience and thorough process has led to a complete turnaround in our financial future when compared to that of our previous financial planner.
When dealing with a financial planner the key ingredient for us is absolute trust, in this regard i have complete and utter faith in Dan and his very professional team !!
We not only consider Dan to be our financial planner but also a friend, we look forward to our annual meetings with Dan where he is always welcoming and always extremely well prepared.
I cannot recommend Dan & The Approved Financial team highly enough, we are so grateful that we have Dan and his team looking after us !!
