Pensionlite in short
Pensionlite is a Telford advice firm arranging life, critical illness, income protection and relevant life cover alongside pensions and wealth planning. That one-roof setup suits anyone who wants cover decided in the same conversation as retirement plans. Chartered status and accountability to the FCA for its recommendations are stated on the firm's own site. The Telford base keeps advice local rather than call-centre remote.
Customer reviews of Pensionlite are broad, running to hundreds of ratings across Google and Reviews.co.uk at nearly five out of five on both. It counts against the firm that no advice fee, commission disclosure or VAT position appears on the protection page, so the cost of advice only emerges during the advice journey. The review base is the broadest in this round across two platforms.
Our verdict
Our judgement: Pensionlite suits you if you want protection cover arranged alongside pensions or wealth planning by one Telford firm. The review base is broad across two sources and the Chartered and Quilter-network footing is stated. It counts against it that the cost of advice is not published, so it only emerges during the advice journey.

Questions about Pensionlite
Is Pensionlite any good?
On the evidence, yes for cover beside retirement plans: it sits fourth in our Telford insurance brokers table, with a broad review base on two sources and life, critical illness and income protection in one place. Read the full page and its sources. Ask how you pay before advice starts.
Is Pensionlite FCA registered?
Accountability to the FCA through the Quilter Financial Planning network is stated on the firm's own protection page, alongside Chartered status. Check the network name on the FCA register before you share documents. Ask which entity would give your advice.
What does Pensionlite charge?
No advice fee, commission disclosure or VAT position is published on the protection page, so the advice documents do the talking. Ask what the advice costs, when it falls due and whether VAT applies. Get the answers in writing before you proceed.
Where does Pensionlite work?
The firm works from Telford, serving the town and the surrounding area from its Stafford Park base. Send your postcode with the enquiry to confirm you are covered. Ask whether advice happens in person, by phone or by video, and take a contact name.
How is Pensionlite ranked?
It ranks fourth of the ten brokers in our September round, carried by broad customer evidence and stated qualifications. Unpublished costs hold it back. Read the full review, then compare its protection quote with one other adviser before you decide.
