PEP Plan &Financial advisor charges

Can anyone help me understand my position?. I have a stocks&shares former PEP arranged through Chase de Vere. It has been transferred into different funds through the years, but I have never paid them any money up front - they have had commission from the new company and I suppose got something through the annual management charges I pay.
They have just been in contact to say that the current fund they reccommended CF Miton Arcturus is under-performing and they want to suggest a move, the holding is small - £5000 approx , but they are talking about giving them a cheque for 3% of the fund and I am reluctant to pay. Am I able to move this fund to a new provider on my own and sever the connection with them ?
