Being well informed and treated with respect.

published

I have been with Hesta for many years - think maybe 20 years.
I have always found HESTA very accessible, sensible, and respectful. They are very clear that they don't give advice but do give me clear information.

Customer Service At It's Finest

published

"Considering the affect of COVID19, still having a operational call centre is awesome!! Even though the delay was up to 45 mins, the operator resolved my enquiry within 2 minutes."

Telephone discussion about my queries on reducing my TAP fortnightly income.

published

I have been with Hesta for two years having been with Iris since I retired in 2007.
I am getting used to finding relevant information on line and I have made several phone calls for assistance, and the forthcoming information has been valuable and most appreciated.

Good personal service

published

Even with large amount of 'traffic' I have found staff to be helpful and polite. I would like to also comment though that the site is the slowest site that I navigate. Several glitches occur on a regular basis when accessing Hesta member online. Apart from that all is very good.
thanks

Excellent service

published

"HESTA looks after its members well and its employees are friendly and competent. Members of HESTA are also well informed about the processes they go through at all times." As an older person who have worked for more than 4 years, I need processes that are user friendly and simple to follow. I couldn't be happier with HESTA.

Ethical investments and great return

published

Member for 4 years in the EcoPool option which focuses on sustainable investment. Returns are consistently strong and the focus on support services for health and community sector workers is a very good use of expertise.

Not sure i made the right move

published

I also picked this fund due to the good rating. I feel the site is not up to date compared to other funds and i tried to make a switch on what i found was the last day for that 1 only per week option and the site crashed so i now have to miss getting my funds into the market for another week.
Sadly no response to my query as to why this could happen without any backup or possible fix since it was a system issue.
Lucky it's Easter and only an extra 3 market days i think.
Have to say, customer service is awesome. Super lovely staff.

Marita T.asked

Hesta's member profile does not allow visibility of the number of units a member has. While a member's account estimate could change based on the markets, the number of units do not fluctuate and is critical information to a member. I find it very concerning as to why Hesta is hiding this information from its members. Since this came to my attention last month, I have raised my concerns with Hesta and have received no valid explanation to date. If other super funds are open and transparent, why not you Hesta? How do I trust that you are doing the right thing?
