First Choice Financial Services was formed in September 2000, with the aim of providing quality financial advice and exceptional service. Since then over €500m in business has been organised on behalf of clients and 95% of the business is repeat or referral business from satisfied clients.
We specialise in life & pension reviews. We save on average, 7 out of 10 clients' money by reviewing their life assurance policies. There are huge improvements and savings available when you review your Pension Retirement Plans.
Here at First Choice, we can assist you with meeting all your banking needs. At First Choice, we are experts in business lending and are on the panel of assessors for the Credit Review Office, overseeing the lending practices of Irish Banks to the SME Sector.
We are now deposit brokers, offering the best advice for our clients' bank deposits. Finally, we are Aviva Health Insurance and HSF Health Plan agents, and can offer comparison quotes & expert advice in minutes.
Your first choice for:
- Life Assurance, Retirement Planning, Investments and Deposits
