Kind regardsPosted on Kathryn Sandford16 February 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Avi from Halo Advisors was outstanding to work with. He’s highly professional, clear in his advice, and brings a great sense of humour that makes what can feel like a heavy topic much easier to navigate. He took the time to walk us through all the options so we could choose the life insurance cover that genuinely suited our needs. His communication was consistent and easy to understand, and his follow up was excellent. There was never any confusion or pressure. Overall, it was a seamless process from start to finish. We felt informed, supported, and confident in our decision.Posted on Shaun Foster11 February 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We asked Avi to review our current policy and see if we could achieve some cost savings without compromising our cover. We achieved both and are wrapped with the outcome! Avi was very transparent throughout the process and guided us every step of the way through. This allowed us to make a well informed decision.Posted on Vinesh Kapadia7 January 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Avi was wonderful to work with, as always. He explained the gaps in cover for my adult children, kept us updated the whole way through, and worked really hard to make sure we got what we truly needed & not just what we thought we wanted.Posted on Payal Prakash5 January 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been with Avi for past few years now. He is totally service oriented. He responds timely to my queries, and always offers to review my existing coverage at least once yearly. I definitely feel protected under his insurance expertise. Highly recommended.Posted on Arvindra Kumar4 January 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My family has been with Halo for past few years now. The service & care has been top notch from day one. They have set down and explained everything in detail,and tailored our insurance to best suit our needs and affordability. What amazes us is that Shak and Avi are always a message away when we need assistance or clarification. Awesome duo. Can’t recommend them enough. *Ajay from Auckland.Posted on Edwin Prasad22 December 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Avi got it right from the very first day. From our initial conversation, his advice was clear, practical, and genuinely focused on protecting my situation. Thanks to his guidance, I was able to keep my income and mortgage repayment cover in place for over a year following a serious football-related knee injury. This support made an enormous difference during a very stressful and uncertain time. Because of Avi’s knowledge and attention to detail, I’ve been able to successfully claim every single month without any issues. He took the time to explain the process, made sure everything was set up correctly, and was always available to answer questions or provide reassurance when needed. His support didn’t stop after the paperwork was done — he consistently checked in and ensured everything continued to run smoothly. I genuinely couldn’t have asked for better support. Avi’s professionalism, reliability, and commitment gave me real peace of mind, and I’m extremely grateful for his help. Regards EdwinPosted on Ronald Chand21 December 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can’t thank Avi, the Coconut Man, enough for the work he’s done on my health insurance. He took the time to properly review my file — something my previous broker never bothered to do — and discovered an insurance exclusion that shouldn’t have been there. Avi handled the entire process of getting that medical exclusion removed with my insurer, and thanks to him, I’m now fully covered for anything that may come my way in the future. That peace of mind is priceless. What stood out most was his attention to detail, his communication, and the genuine care he brings to his work. It’s rare to find someone who actually advocates for you, not just sells you a policy. Highly recommend Avi to anyone wanting a broker who truly works for their best interests. — RonPosted on Analiza Pili19 December 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I give Avi a rate of 5 star because his service to my application to the partners life insurance was really awsome and very fast.I highly recommended him interms of his good service to his customer.cheers and Godbless❤️🙏
