bought the self employed filing package

Bought their self employed package last spring and it did the job. Uploading the invoices and mileage log was simple. The only niggle was that the confirmation email went to spam for me, so I had to go looking for it, but the return itself was accepted without any fuss.

Way cheaper than the accountant my mum uses

Mum's accountant wanted a lot more than this for a basic return, so I tried them instead. Signing up took about ten minutes and the questions were straightforward for a first timer. Filed in a day and I didn't have to learn anything complicated.

very straightforward service

I found the booking process perfectly clear, and I was grateful for the way each question was laid out one at a time. The person who looked over my return was courteous and explained the figures without any fuss, and I was pleased with how it all turned out.

Needed to file late and they helped

I had missed the deadline and needed to file late, so I was a bit worried about penalties. The team explained what I had to submit and how long it would take, and everything was handled properly. I am grateful for the patience shown, especially as I had lots of questions about my rental income.

easily the best way to file my return

Best way I have found to file a return, full stop. I went with them after the accountant I'd used for years retired, and the process was easy to follow from start to finish. The refund was sorted quickly and I got a clear summary of what had been declared.

Better than doing it through the government site

Compared with filing directly on the government portal, this was much less of a faff. It pulled in my employment details, asked only what it needed, and flagged a Gift Aid claim I'd forgotten about. Worked out cheaper than the accountant I used before and the whole thing felt properly joined up.

first time filing with them

Signed up for their self assessment filing for the first time this year because my employer changed my pay and I had a second bit of freelance work on the side. The sign up asked me one question at a time which I liked, and I got through the expenses section without getting lost. They checked my numbers and flagged one thing I'd have missed. Took about an evening all in.

Been using them for years

Been using them for my tax return since before the app existed, so I've seen the site change a fair bit. The sign up asked me to upload last year's return again which felt daft, but once I was in the process was quick like always and they remembered my details.

Sorted out my HMRC letters without any stress

I knew my way round self assessment already, so I could tell straight away that their checks were sensible and not padded out. They caught a mismatch on my dividend income that I'd have missed. Filing took under an hour and I haven't had any follow up from HMRC since.

They were the only one that checked my expenses properly

I compared three options before picking this one and the difference was in how they went through my expenses. The other two accepted everything I typed in, whereas this one asked for receipts on two items and explained why. Filing was smooth afterwards and I felt the return was more accurate.

great for quick tax returns

They sorted my tax return in a couple of days and I'm glad I stuck with them. I've been a customer for years and it has always gone smoothly. The questions they asked were sensible, nothing I had to dig out of a drawer, and the refund landed in my account a few weeks later as they said it would.

Cheaper than the others but slower

I compared a few providers and this came out cheaper than most, though not the quickest. My return was accepted but the reply to my question about a student loan took nearly a week, which felt slow. The end result was fine and the price was the main reason I went with them.

needed help with my pension income

I needed help filing my return because I had a small pension and some savings interest to declare, and I didn't want to get it wrong. The forms were clear and the site talked me through each box. The only thing I'd mention is the reply to my first query took a couple of days, but the answer was thorough when it came.

used them for my rental property accounts

Used them for the rental property side of my return, which has a few moving parts with mortgage interest and repairs. The categories matched what I needed and it worked out the relief properly without me having to guess. Good value for a landlord with two properties and the filing was submitted without problems.

needed a return done quick for a job

Needed my return done quick for a job application and this was the easiest option I could find. Signed up, answered the questions, uploaded my P60 and it was filed the same day. Simple and no faff at all.

Not happy with how long my refund took

Filed my return and got the confirmation, but the refund took well over the time they quoted and nobody gave me a straight answer for ages. Had to message three times before anyone told me where it was. The filing itself was fine but I expected better follow up.

reliable every year for the self assessment

Used them for my self assessment return for about six years now and the one I went with this January was the same easy process as always. Uploaded my P60 and bank statements, they checked the figures and filed it, and I had the confirmation email within the hour. Haven't had to chase them once, which is more than I can say for my old accountant.

the price stood out but the sign up dragged

The price was what made me choose them, because it came out well below what the local accountant wanted for my self employed return. Sign up dragged on a bit longer than I'd like, with a few screens asking for the same details twice. Once I got past that the filing went through without any trouble and the refund arrived when they said it would.

Quick and simple on my phone

Did the whole return on my phone while waiting for a train. The app is clear enough and I could snap photos of my forms and send them straight through. Cheaper than the other two I looked at and it was done before I got to work.

Good value for a simple return

Good value for a simple return, and I'd use them again. The fee was a bit more than I'd planned on but still less than what my last accountant charged. The only thing I'd flag is that uploading my bank statements took a few attempts because the file size limit is strict.
