But still, you gotta wonder, if they are offering things like free movie tickets and $5,000 councelling or school relocation payouts for people who have issues with cyberbullying then, uh, just how conservative are they being with your funds?

What I find... Uhg... Is it's all 'price on application'. And you have to talk or meet with an 'assessor'. And all that assessor seems to do is fill in fields on an online thing in response to your answers.
So I don't understand why you can't put in an application, yourself, by filling in the fields.
And I wasn't given any information on what I could do to mitigate risk. E.g., I wasn't informed about things like the *difference* between having an alarm system and so on.
I guess they only seemed interested in taking my money.
I'm not sure I care about 'customer satisfaction' overly. Because that is what our private health system seems obsessed with, and that is precisely what that guy cr*pp*d all over: Peoples basic inability to assess competence.
I do understand that there is something... Frequency dependent about investment. So... People feel incentivised, rather, to keep their mouths shut about it if they think they are onto a good thing. Especially when it comes to people like me with little to invest / little history of sensible investment.
I guess I have time to learn and do some research...
MAS is probably a reasonable place to start... Probably... Probably not long term. I suspect they free-ride from the whole 'we are an exclusive club' smug feeling of satisfaction...
