Independent Expense Review Services — because you work hard for your money
You work hard for your money. You shouldn't have to work hard to keep it.
But right now, most people are quietly overpaying — on their insurance, utilities, telco, and subscriptions. Not because they're careless, but because staying loyal stopped being rewarded a long time ago and we are time poor in our busy lives. Providers save their best deals for new customers. The longer you stay, the more you pay.
I'm Mark. I started Elephants Independent to help you fix that.

Don't Pay The "Loyalty Tax"
"Loyalty Tax" refers to paying more than necessary because services and expenses haven't been reviewed for some time.
Common examples include:
• Insurance policies renewed without review
• Internet and mobile plans left unchanged
• Unused subscriptions continuing to charge
• Utility rates increasing over time
• Older products no longer offering competitive value
Small increases can add up over time. A Financial Reset helps identify opportunities that may otherwise go unnoticed.

Why Elephants?
My mum collected elephants her whole life, glass, wood, stone, every colour and every shape. Family and friends would bring one home from every holiday, and over the years her collection became a symbol of the people she loved.
When I set up my first Self Managed Super Fund and needed a trustee name, the choice was easy. Elephants.
To me, elephants represent everything Mum taught me, loyalty, strength, resilience, protection, wisdom, and never forgetting what matters most. Today she's living with dementia and still showing an extraordinary love of life that humbles me every single day.
Elephants Independent is her legacy. Built by a very proud son who owes her everything.
"I've spent my career in Telecommunications and IT services, working across both the private and public sectors in Australia and the UK. I've moved countries, owned investment properties, managed financial portfolios and spent a lifetime learning what real value actually looks like.
Spoiler: it's rarely about the money!
As a proud father of three and now a grandfather, passing on that knowledge is everything to me. It's why I do what I do.
Now at a new chapter, I'm channelling everything I've learned into something I genuinely believe in, helping everyday people stop overpaying and start taking back control of their household budgets.
I'm not here to sell you anything. I'm just someone who's been around long enough to know where the money goes, and how to keep more of it in your pocket."
