Biggest factor in leaving was no communication on how funds were doing. Are they doing better, worse or the same as a non actively managed account? I never knew! The only regular updates I received were bills. In order to know any changes in your account you have to send an email and request specifically what you want. No regular, periodic emails sent showing status. Nope, just the bill. So I wish I could tell you if it was a benefit or not to have an actively managed account but I know less now on than I did previously. So overall kinda disappointing. I guess I assumed I would receive information on how my account was doing & hopefully better to justify the fee, but that just never happened. Nice and trustworthy guy but knowing how the account is doing is more important to me than having a 'nice guy' in my contact list. I'm honestly a bit bummed. The quest continues!

Jessica has been my financial advisor for the last five years and continues to be so. She is…read morealways available if I had any questions or need advice. She has advised me through many of my life's major transitions: Single Life, Married Life, Starting a Business, and Long Term Traveling. I met Jessica when I was single. I was financially unorganzied and only had a checking and savings account. With her help, she got my finances in order by diversifying my savings across many different products & platforms and helped me set up financial goals. When I got married, she helped me with the transition and guided us with merging our finances together (a daunting task for any couple, which made our lives easier). She helped advise us on some products that would benefit a married couple, made sure that we were financially secure, and offered advices on other areas that we should be concerned about. When I started a small consulting company, Jessica helped me with the finances of getting a new business off the ground. She created a business account for me and worked to diversify the business income and a retirement savings plan. Most importantly, Jessica's helped us plan out our year long travel/career break. She worked with us to make sure we were financially ready for us to quit our jobs and travel on our savings without depleting it completely. Jessica worked with us on establishing a budget and a stretch budget (since traveling long term is unlike traveling for vacations). She was alway available to us while we were on the road if we needed any information or to make a transfer of funds if we needed it. She was a great asset to have while we were on the road. It help us enjoy our travel with one less thing to worry about.

Jessica has been helping me with my finances for the past 3 months, and I am very happy with her…read moreservices! I was pretty intimidated with the idea of meeting with a financial planner, initially. In fact, I really didn't feel ready! I was pretty sure that I would want to have a lot more money in my bank accounts before "planning" would make any sense. Boy was I wrong! As Jessica helped me understand, it is important to plan from the beginning, even before you start making big investments or before your business takes off, so that you can build on a solid foundation. Jessica is easy to talk to, and helps me understand why what I do today is important for my future, and the future of my business. Now when I think about my finances, I don't immediately start having palpitations, because I know I have a plan in place and Jessica is helping me! I can rest easier. I highly recommend working with Jessica Merino, even before you think you are ready!

Chris was friendly, energetic and very knowledgable about everything we threw at him. He was great about pausing to make sure he'd answered all of our questions before he moved on. We spent a good amount of time looking through our retirement accounts, investments, savings, budgets, loans, and goals. Chris sat with us at a big, round table and wrote down tons of notes as we went. He walked us through his calculations for investments and pointed out some huge fees we could avoid. He found us savings and suggested we open a few new accounts to make our money work harder. He definitely did not push any product, company, or anything. He went so far as to tell us to come back to see him only for big financial events. I will be coming back, though! I walked out of the meeting feeling very happy. Chris was honest, helpful and thorough. I have a better grip on my financial standing and a solid plan for investing. Thanks, Chris!

This is actually a 5 NEGATIVE rating. IN SHORT- DON'T DO BUSINESS WITH A COMPANY THAT DOES NOT…read moreCARE. AND HOLDS YOU RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR OWN ERRORS On Friday I got my final payroll check from the State. I went into the local branch to make the deposits to ensure there are no extended hold or hiccups. Before depositing, I asked the staff if there will be any hold on them. He CLEARLY informed me (and I have a witness as my partner was with me) that there will be no withholding and that the funds will be available Monday, 12/30. I logged in on Saturday and noticed that they withheld 90% of my deposits. I called their "LACK OF CUSTOMER SERVICE" number and was told that it would be an easy fix, but I have to wait till Monday because the department that handles state warrants (for payroll) is closed. But a staff can call the state to verify that the funds are good. Monday comes along and I called. This time I was told that after their research, it was determined that it was an error made by the branch. That they should have coded it as an exception and provide explanation that they were state warrants and not as checks. That the ONLY way to fix it would be to call the branch and explain to them. He offered to call the branch and explain to them how to properly code the deposits and asked that I wait on line. He came back and told me that the branch will not be open for another 30 minutes. That he will place good notes on the account, and if I were to call back in 30 minutes, the rep taking the call will be able to assist. I called back after 30 minutes and this time I stayed online with the rep for over 40 minutes waiting for the branch to pick up. So after discussing it with him, he suggested that I go into the branch in person as he is also at loss since no one is picking up the call. Very reluctantly I had to cancel my personal plans and drove to the branch. Got the same run around, "oh you have no appointment so I am going to place you on our list" - I explained to him that his back office tried called them and was placed on hold for over 40 minutes and his response was, "well it is year end and we are busy so no one it taking calls"!!!!! So I had no choice but waited as I needed my funds released to pay my bills. I waited for almost 30 minutes in the lobby, but nothing was happening and so I flagged down a staff and asked. He said, " oh I thought someone was helping you" then scoot back in and about 10 minutes later another rep came out. Took me to the room and gave me the bad news, that he is unable to assist, that the back office gave me bad information as there is no way for them to code any deposits as an exception. I asked why I was told that there would be no hold when I came in on Friday, and all he did was apologize and gave the fake show of concerns that, wished there was something he could have done. That the only way to code an exception is for a manager to do so, but there are no managers at the branch. Then he continued to insult me by explaining that Fidelity is not a bank (duh? like I did not know that , and he kept repeating it even after I informed him that I worked for other investment and brokerage firms in my past, plus I worked as a regulatory compliance consultant and know the difference) In frustration I walked out of the branch. I then called the "LACK OF CUSTOMER SERVICE" number again and tried to file a complaint, and although the rep was all sympathetic and all, he came back ultimately with the same answer. 1) I cannot file a complain unless I write it and 2) he explained why the hold was place. Fidelity as a firm has been hit with so many fraudulent deposits and as a result, management has decided that every customer is BAD. I have been with them for almost 20 years? Why I am being I punished for their prior poor deposit policy? WHY I am I held responsible for inaccurate disclosure by their branch staff? Finally why did it take speaking to 5 DIFFERENT rep before I was told the real reason why there is a 30 day hold on my checks?? WILL CLOSE MY ACCOUNT on 1/22/2025 when hold is off.

He keeps himself honest by offering a really easy to use app to track your positions and earnings results across all your accounts - no more guesswork. And the quarterly reports we receive help us to benchmark our historic success with Jason. I can also second the other review regarding Jason being a phenomenal advisor for younger professionals - he gives a personal touch that I don't think I'd receive with a more traditional/larger advisor. Because he's around my age and also lives in the city with similar family motivations, I really feel like he understands my goals and can understand my investment strategy. Can't recommend him enough.

From the very beginning he's treated my goals seriously and never made my wife and I feel "too small" for good advice. Whether it's a quick question about budgeting, job offers, planning to move homes, or bigger long-term strategies, he's always just a phone call or text away and quick to respond. It's rare to find someone who combines real expertise with genuine care, but Jason does both.
