Aardvark Accounting Omdömen 

I’ve been with Aardvark for a year following a move from another firm of accountants.

The contrast between Aardvark and the other firm has been staggering.

Very responsive and a keen eye for detail, they really treat you as an individual and I can relax doing my job knowing they are doing theirs.

Based on my experience I’d certainly recommend them.

I have been working with Aardvark Accounting for the past three years as the director of my limited company, operating as an IT contractor. Overall, their services have been instrumental in managing my financial affairs and ensuring compliance with HMRC and Companies House.

Aardvark Accounting offers a comprehensive range of contractor accounting services, including self-assessment tax return preparation, registered office services, HMRC and Companies House submissions, and payroll management. Their expertise in catering to the specific needs of IT contractors is evident, and it has been reassuring to know that this is their specialty.

During our collaboration, I did encounter a minor hiccup regarding my pension. A mistake was made that required me to personally make a payment for the final employer contribution. However, Aardvark Accounting was helpful in rectifying the situation and providing guidance, ensuring a smooth resolution. It would have been preferable if this mistake had been avoided altogether, but their assistance in sorting it out was appreciated.

In terms of communication, Aardvark Accounting maintains a professional and consistent approach. However, there have been instances where their response times have been a bit slow, often taking several days. I have noticed that urgent matters receive quicker attention, particularly when marked as important in the subject line. It would be beneficial if their response times were more consistently prompt to address time-sensitive queries and concerns.

On the positive side, Aardvark Accounting has provided valuable advice and insights on optimising my salary and dividends. They have ensured that my financial structure aligns with my long-term goals, such as qualifying for the state pension and minimising unnecessary tax payments. Their expertise in this area has been invaluable and has helped me make informed financial decisions.

While Aardvark Accounting generally delivers a reliable service, there is room for improvement in certain aspects. Enhancing their responsiveness and attentiveness to emails, including avoiding errors in attachments, would significantly enhance the overall experience.

Despite these minor concerns, I would still recommend Aardvark Accounting for their specialised contractor accounting services. Their expertise in IT contractor finances and assistance in optimising tax strategies make them a valuable partner for anyone in the industry.

Really glad I chose Aardvark to set up my company and run my accounts. The whole process was so quick and easy - great Onboarding, face to face advice, customer service and their package includes all the insurances you need and really easy to use and good bookkeeping software and company bank account, on your phone and computer, that are linked to make your life easy and bureaucracy free. Would definitely recommend for a hassle free and really supportive package of support, advice and tools.

I had been with Brookson for 4 years for my limited company accounting and although they have all the nice tools in their portal they lack in their customer service. I’ve moved to Aardvark this year and I have been extremely happy with the service I have received to date. I don’t feel like just a number anymore and unliked Brookson when I was being passed around from one department to another folks at Aardvark are very helpful first time. My personal accountant (Ethan Speechley-Price) has been exceptional in providing advice and responding promptly. I would happily recommend Aardvark to other contractors.

Compared to several large chains I've used before, Aardvark are cheaper and go to more effort. Happy to recommend to any contractor needing a limited company.

As someone that was new to setting up and managing a ltd business, the whole accounting can be confusing and somewhat daunting. A friend of mine recommended Aardvark and although they weren't necessarily the cheapest, I'm very pleased with this decision. My assigned client director Ethan has been super helpful guiding me through all the process, and the whole wider team are responsive and professional. The accounting software that is bundled with the fee (FreeAgent) is superb and incredibly user friendly. Would not hesitate to recommend them.

I've been with Aardvark for 2 years now since moving into contracting after spending many years as a PAYE employee.

For me, Aardvark have managed my accounts with no hassle or fuss. When I have needed support or had questions, they have always been responsive to my requests.

For anyone looking to go into contracting and needing an Accountant, I can highly recommend Aardvark for providing a great service at a fair price.

Being new to contracting I found even the thought of accounts daunting and a bit scary. Aardvark have really helped to make the whole process simple and understandable. The apps they use make day to day tracking of finances so much easier. My point of contact, Ethan, has been very approachable and has explained in detail every step.
Thank you Aadvark, I very much recommend your services.

I was recommended Aardvark Accounting by an ex-colleague and I have nothing but good words to say about them! I've been with them now for 6 months and their service has been exceptional, especially the advice given to me by my assigned personal accountant, Tony Sadler.

Tony reached out to me within the first week of opening an account to talk through process, accounting software and answering any dummy questions I had. Tony has been paramount in helping me understand something that is very new to me and is always available over mail or phone should I need him. He is very quick to get back to me regarding any query, no matter how rudimentary it is.

Aardvark is great and I would recommend them to anyone, irrespective of how experienced you are with accounting.

Aardvark has been an amazing accounting partner for my IT contracting business! From expert tax advice to prompt filings, their attention to detail and professionalism has been outstanding.

I have used the services of a number of accountants over the last 6 years for my limited company and I can say with 100% certainty that none of them have come even close to offering the level of service I have received from Aardvark. I feel very fortunate that I made the decision to move my business to them. The transition was seamless, the cost is very competitive, and the timeliness of responses to my queries has been exemplary.
I would especially like to give a mention to Ryan Goldingay whose knowledge and patience has been outstanding and gratefully appreciated. He is a credit to the company.
The FreeAgent software is the easiest, most intuitive yet most comprehensive accounting software I have used to date and has made my accounting a lot simpler.
I would without question recommend Aardvark to anyone in my position who runs a small limited company.

So far liked everything, quick response, clear on everything they explained.
very happy with onboarding service from my accountant Ethan.

These guys have been doing our accounts for a while now, and I haven't experienced any significant issues. Tony S. gave me the year accounts final overview and next steps instructions in such an easy-to-follow way that I haven't experienced before.

Seamless transition from my previous accountant. Use of FreeAgent software simplifies the previous bookkeeping I have done. Great help and assistance from Ethan @ Aardvark. Definitely the right decision to move to Aardvark.

First of all, they saved my business from an irresponsible accountant that I used in the past! I was provided with full and smooth support when migrating from my old accountant.

After more that 1 years of service, I'm very impressed! They deliver on that they promise in timely manner meeting all deadlines! My questions are answered quickly and in a way that I can understand. FreeAgent is also brilliant along with all the other extra perks that come with the service. What else can you want? Easy, smooth and efficient!

Don't think about it twice! Just sign up and enjoy your peace of mind and safety! :)

Great company, quick to respond to queries and solve any issues. Provide full service for contractors and small businesses to take away all the time consuming accounting needs.

great customer service and better value than most. Freeagent included.

Without Aardvark Accounting I would have found the process of setting up a business complex and tiring. With them, however, it has been a breeze. Their guidance has been fantastic. Going forward I'm not fearing admin such as VAT returns, corporation tax, self-assessment. I am really impressed by how they coordinate so well.

I made the switch to Aardvark Accounting in August 2022 after being dissatisfied with the accountant I was using at the time, and I have never regretted the change.

The on-boarding process was smooth and professional and I really like the FreeAgent software to which Aardvark provide access. I now use this for all the functions I need as a contractor.

Shout out to Ryan Goldingay, who is knowledgeable, helpful, and very responsive to my queries.

Aardvark now look after my company payroll, accounts, and personal tax returns and I have no hesitation in recommending them to any other contractors out there.
