Testimonials

Over the years, I have worked with some amazing people and businesses. I love what I do but I love it even more when my clients are happy with the services I provide. Here is just a sample of the testimonials written about me and the accountancy service I provide.

I have used GMS Accountants for the last three years for my sole trader self-assessment tax return and their service has been efficient, friendly, and price competitive with attention to detail when giving business tax advice.  Highly recommended service.

I'm Ken Dunn, a retired Consultant Statistician who worked as a data analysis and modelling specialist in market research, initially with the Mars Group (1972-1989). Subsequently, I was sole proprietor of Dunn Research Applications (1990-2008). From 1990 to date, I've used 3 different firms for accounts and tax advice. The first was a company based in Windsor. They were very competent, quite expensive, handled all of my business accounts and kept me straight when I needed any advice on tax or financial legislation. However, as a small startup business it's clear I was never a priority client in their eyes. After I relocated to Teesside, I used a consultant accountant/bookkeeping service. He provided a great personal service at a very reasonable cost and was very responsive whenever I had any financial queries. I moved to Longstanton some 12 years ago and continued with the same services provider until he retired.

That was about 4 years ago, and so I needed to find someone who could provide the same level of service that I'd become used to.

My searches turned up Graham. It was a tricky time for many service companies when Graham was working to establish his new business opportunity but, as you can see, his business continues to grow because he offers the kind of personal relationship and advice that his clients seek, and at a very fair price. Being retired, my financial affairs are much simpler these days. I no longer have business accounts or landlord tax returns to file. I continue to use Graham for my tax requirements, and we work together over just a short period each year at tax-return time. Having said that, I value very much the fact that I have a trusted professional who I can contact at any time whenever I need clarification on whatever HMRC have been up to. I enjoy working with Graham and know that I will receive prompt attention whenever it's needed. GMS might just be the accountancy service that you are looking for too?

I have owned my own business for 5 years, after 3 years with my previous accountant I decided to look for someone else. I didn't feel we understood each other, and she wasn't very approachable. I came across an advert in our village magazine, GMS Accountant, emailed straight away, and with in minutes I had a reply.

Since then, changing over has been the best decision ever. Graham is very professional, also very understanding. I have contacted him with issues that worried me, he took them over, explained everything, and understood my concerns. The two employees I have also feel comfortable contacting him.

Graham has made my life as a hairdresser/ salon owner a lot less stressful. I am very grateful that he has taken the salon on.

He is easy to contact. Reply right away. Easy to explain your concerns. Always good advice. Looks after my business and employees.

Overall, I feel very lucky to have Graham look after my business, and my staff.
