Barkers Estates - Could you really not have done any better

Barkers were appointed as the executor of my fathers estate. The estate was very simple, a fund managed investment and vehicles.

Whilst we were told the estate should be wound up within four months, the saga is still going on 22 months later. This has meant a significant delay in the payment of funds due to a widow who is also a pensioner, and was financially dependent on my father.

Maybe a bigger estate would have received a better service, but as a family we are horribly disappointed by the service received. Numerous follows ups with pleas for clarity on the way forward and timeframes have resulted in broken promises. Fingers are pointed at the accounting firm assisting them Quattro, who point fingers back at Barkers ....

And so we wait ...
