    Advantages Advantages Community, content, tools, calculators

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Need more members to join the community

    From my point of view, the site makes it easy to find information while also making me aware of things that I have not considered. I've learned that when it comes to personal finance it is often what you don't know or haven't thought to ask that comes back to haunt you. It was great to see that there are others just like me looking for help with personal finance issues. After doing my initial research using the well written guides, tools, and calculators for my remortgage, I was able to post questions to the community using the "Ask an Expert" feature. In my case, it became pretty obvious that ... more

    Advantages Advantages Free content and access to real financial experts

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Difficult to find the site on Bing

    I came across the site when setting up my 2009 budget. Back then the site was more like the other comparison sites with some good content and easy to use product lookup services. Today, the site has become so much more with an awesome community that I plug in to learn about things I never even considered. For example, I saw others posting questions on life insurance, a product that I was looking to purchase this year, that I never thought to ask. I highly recommend people participate in the Q&A service. I was able to submit a question on how much my smoking increases the cost of life cover ... more

    Advantages Advantages Calculators and expert advice

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Didnt have auto insurance

    I came across this site when looking to find out more about Income Protection Insurance and was able to find thorough and knowledgable information. The site is clean and easy to use. In addition, they have experts available to answer any question. I submitted a question and received an answer in less than 24 hours. In fact I was able to review other products and might take out a life insurance policy for me and my family. I highly recommend this site for anyone looking for information and bargain finance quotes. SimplyFinance stands out from the rest and seem to have great standing with ... more

    Advantages Advantages Free high quality personal finance content

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Needs more community members

    I found the site to go above and beyond with its awesome Ask an Expert feature. Not only did I end up saving money on my life insurance and mortgage for my 2011 budget, I was able to ask questions for free to personal finance experts. They answered my questions in a timely manner, and gave me the confidence to make a very informed decision. I plan on using the site and becoming active in the community to help others understand that many of us don't know how to manage their finances effectively. Another cool thing the site offers is its Calculators and Find an Adviser directory. After consuming ... more

    Advantages Advantages Lots of info and Specialists to speak to

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Terrible navigation

    Loved the fact I can speak to someone qualified about my circumstances. Great guide and love the Q & A area. Very useful calculators and like the tone of the content. Certainly somewhere to get an unbiased opinion. Would have like a more focused financial planning section which gave me better pension info. News content seems fresh and I loved the ethical and green investment features. One thing I feel needs improving is the site navigation and I found it very difficult to find some of the content. However when you find it is very engaging and not patronising like some sites. It also makes a ... more
