Why advisers voted us number 1 for service

Number 1 For Contact Centre Service

The verdict is in: advisers have voted Parmenion number one for contact centre service in the Investment Trends UK Adviser Technology & Business Report 2026*.

As your Secret Service Agent, I’ve been investigating exactly what’s behind this recognition. My mission? To uncover what the Client Services team has been doing behind the scenes during the first half of 2026, and why our approach to service continues to make a difference for advisers.

The past six months have put the team through their paces. From the busy return after Christmas, to the pressures of Tax Year End, and even working through record-breaking heatwaves, the mission has remained the same: be there when advisers need us, resolve queries quickly, and make every interaction count.

Having worked with the team through it all, I’ve seen first-hand the extra miles they go to. Here’s my report…

These results highlight what advisers value most: quick answers, accurate support and a team that’s ready to help.

In their annual study of the operational realities for UK advice businesses, Investment Trends also rated Parmenion number 1 for adviser support services, recognising the advisers’ experience when they contact us.

We were number 1 for speed and accuracy of solving problems too. With an average call duration of just 4 minutes and 21 seconds (excluding hold and wrap-up time), and a 4.8/5 live chat rating, it's clear advisers appreciate a service that is both efficient and effective.
