What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an accountant?

My previous accountant was not very responsive and missed filing deadlines so I decided to find a new accountant when I stumbled upon his accountancy practice online.

How has Vicente Kewley helped you?

Vicente has been super friendly and helpful to both myself and my wife (who he also helps with her business). Accounting mistakes from my previous accountant were fixed with no fuss and he has helped me understand the tax system better.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

I have.

What could they have done better?

As far as both my wife and I are concerned, absolutely not. Him and his team are always ready to help whenever we have a question.

What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an accountant?

Previous accountant was overcharging me and never replied to my calls. He also didn’t file my accounts and tax returns on time and caused me and my company to receive penalties.

How has Vicente Kewley helped you?

Vicente is contactable and helpful. He filed the old accounts and tax returns and he has been my accountant for the past two years. He has also filed my CIS rebate claims. He is affordable and patient with me as he explains the accounts and tax returns in a manner that is easy for me to understand.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

The outcome has exceeded my expectations. He proves that not all accountants overcharge and underperform.

What could they have done better?

Nothing.

How has Vicente Kewley helped you?

Vincente had it all sorted and sent off within in 48 hours for a very reasonable priced with advise on reducing future bills. I have to say, I think I was largely ignorant of the joys of a good accountant before then and had been trying to do things myself and getting it hopelessly wrong. Since I first start working with Vincente, he has gone on to advise me on tax implications of purchasing property with a family member and pension investments. It's such a relief to feel oneself in safe capable hands when it comes to all things tax and accounting!

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

Yes, my tax return was complete with not fuss and question in my mind it was accurate first time.

As the self-assessment deadline drew close, I realised I needed urgent help with my tax return from an accountant as it was my first time completing this. Most were no longer willing to take on new clients given the short notice, but Vicente went out of his way to make sure he could help me meet the deadline.

How has Vicente Kewley helped you?

Vicente was able to meet me in person at my office to go through all the information I needed and advised me on factors I'd never have known to include in my self-assessment. He then completed my tax return for me in an incredibly short space of time - and at a great rate! Because of this great service, I took a retainer with him for help with an old tax rebate issue as well as for advice on various other tax topics and he has always gone out of his way to give me the best advice possible.

Yes we have, Vicente has helped us a lot not only in setting up our business side of things but but on the day to day running of both our business and personal tax.

What could they have done better?

There have been 1 or 2 errors in terms of information coming from HMRC but it has quickly been fixed and as tax is a fluid thing and the laws are often changed/tweaked it can sometimes be hard to get on top of things, even for accountants. We are both freelancers so it makes our case a little trickier too.
