The Hughes Trustco Group Ltd – Lifeannuities.Com

I found Ivon to be conscientious, thorough and extremely knowledgeable in helping my wife and I purchase an annuity. He answered questions without any effort to pressure or « sell ». He took the time to come to Toronto twice to make sure we were buying what we needed. I’m very happy to recommend him highly.

Ivon helped me buy first annuity several years ago. He did an excellent job of finding the best rate for me. Indeed, when my bank delayed transferring funds the annuity sellers lowered their rate–Ivon persuaded them to honour this original quote. Highly recommended.

I would like to thank you very much for helping me place my registered pension plan funds into joint-life retirement annuities. I especially appreciate the way you compiled quotes from seven or eight different life insurance companies to show the variations in payouts that are available at a given point in time. I also appreciate your patience in responding to my requests for different pay-out scenarios, based on different guarantee periods and other first assumptions. Your fast turn-around time made the decision making process for me and my wife very easy, and having you run interference on our behalf to facilitate the paperwork with the life insurance companies was also enormously helpful.

The experience of dealing with Ivon and Hughes Trustco is a rarity today. He actually is interested in you and cares about your needs and then he delivers. He listens patiently to your questions, gets the facts right, and delivers exactly what you need. I first steered my sister-in-law to him and she was very satisfied. Then I took out one annuity and then a second smaller one. Each time I came away from the experience completely satisfied. If this sounds a bit gushy, it is. You just don’t find people like Ivon anymore. I would highly, highly recommend using him.

Dear Ivon: Now that the business of purchasing my annuities is completed, I wanted to write to you and say how pleased I have been to have engaged your first-class services. Your wide knowledge and considerable expertise were invaluable, and you guided me through the entire process with patience and understanding. I consider myself to have been very fortunate to have found you and your company, and I would not hesitate to recommend you 100% to anyone who is seeking to purchase an annuity.
