ACCOTAX - Chartered Accountants in London & Tax Consultants Reviews 6

This company has just started to spam a very old email address that has been unused for years so they have purchased an out of date email list. Spamming people is not good practice and is against GDPR. Their Spam Domain is accotax.net so that they don`t get anti spammed. Never trust a spammer as most spammers turn out to be scammers. You have been warned.

Abdul's advice has been critical in optimizing our tax strategy. Accotax is a firm truly understands the needs of its clients.

Mariyam took the time to explain everything in detail, making sure we understood our financial situation. Accotax's service is second to none.

The team at Accotax is incredibly professional and responsive. They've made managing our accounts so much easier and stress-free.

Update 31st January 2022
I was contacted by Waqas and am satisfied with the explanation for his absence from the call. He apologised and is investigating what happened when I made the phone call. I have upgraded the review because he has accepted my comments and is doing what he can to fix the issue.

Enquired about social media marketing packages on the website. A meeting was scheduled with Waqas who didn't bother joining. Then called and before I could go further than "May I speak to someone about social media marketing, I ..." the reception cut me off saying they did not need social media as they do it internally. Even when I called back and explained I was a potential client, the receptionist did not seem to think she had done anything wrong!

I wanted to write this review to expose the truth about this organisation. I tried to use them in the past so they could do my personal taxes for me, so they invited me into the office to discuss.

I am aware to they seem to have populated other review sites with 5* reviews, which suspiciously only come from reviewers with 1 review to their name! Paid reviews much?!

So my experience was when I went to the office, and this is where they put the 'thumbscrews' in, so to speak. The person I spoke to didn't seem to helpful, I wasn't even sure if he was with us... so to speak. But despite the soft demeanour, they push the paperwork at you and then you are signing it there. Then to register for the online portal they charged me £75 + VAT! So £90 !!
Well, sadly I was in that situation and needed to get this done so I signed without a chance to look at options. After I realised that their prices seemed very expensive for just doing a personal tax report and submission to the portal when you can easily find people on fiverr.com doing the same, but for so much less!!

Sadly though, despite me coming back to cancel, and without even being registered on the portal I went to cancel, but these parasites refused to give me back my money and even pretended that somehow me being on their email marketing list was consultancy I should value!! Ermm... I go to an accountant to do the work for me, so why would I even have gone to that branch to get my taxes done?!

So be careful of these people, it has unfortunately made me wary of dealing with accountants since then, based on my experience with crooked types like these.
