Looking out for the long game

Graham came to us for a second opinion on his protection. We uncovered a 17-year-old policy with unbeatable cover - one worth holding onto. Two years later, after a stroke, that legacy policy paid out £75,000 when he needed it most. The right advice. At the right time. For all the right reasons.

Real Protection in a crisis

Twelve outdated policies. No Trusts. Then - stroke, fracture, and later, bereavement. Because Waddle restructured everything, payouts were fast, probate was bypassed, and the cover actually worked when it mattered most.

From uncertainty to support

A teenage health scare, emergency surgery, and weeks in intensive care. With Waddle guiding the claim, £25,000 was paid quickly, extra support was accessed, and the family could focus on recovery - not bills.

Hear it from our customers

Eye-opening stuff

They showed me how critical illness could support my family financially if the worst happens. Eye-opening stuff.

Peace of mind

Liam took the time to explain the value of income protection, which I never really understood. Now I’ve got peace of mind and proper cover. Couldn’t be happier.

Thanks Waddle

Thanks Waddle. Friendly, professional, and absolutely on the ball.
