Guy Bridger was strongly recommended to me by a friend of mine who ran a very successful business. I assumed he must then be top quality. He is this, but he is also exceptionally pleasant company. If you want all the stress relieved from filing tax returns and to feel that you are being meticulously well looked after then join Tax File. More...

I changed accountants because I felt I was being overcharged by the previous one. The decision was I feel the right one as not only are Taxfile less costly, but they are proving to be just as efficient.

I've been working with the Taxfile team for probably ten years or so now and thoroughly recommend them. They are not only personable and highly knowledgeable, but it's clear that they genuinely do their very best for customers, all in a timely and totally professional manner. Sincere thanks to the whole team!

"Self-employed, I've been a Taxfile customer for several years now. Evelina is absolutely lovely, very professional, friendly and extremely patient, as I usually end up giving her my accounts in late January. She has also given me lots of extra advice & help over the years. I would thoroughly recommend Taxfile and wouldn't consider going anywhere else." More...

I went on a free 20min introductory session and the lady was so helpful I didnt need to go back for a paid session! I needed advice on tax requirements on buy to let properties and the staff member was very knowledgeable and talked me through each area I need to be aware of.

Wonderful service! And a Godsend for me! I've been with a few accountants and tax advisers over the years but I have never stuck with one as long as I've been with Taxfile (c. 3-4 years and counting) ... not only is it a *great* service they supply but the Taxfile team are also lovely people who really know what they're doing — and they seem to *easily* do all the tax stuff I simply don't understand. Which reminds me; why does the government make it so difficult to account for your finances!? H.M. Revenue & Customs tax return forms may as well be in Dutch as far as I'm concerned so it's great that I can just visit Taxfile and get it all sorted out ... while I wait in fact ... by experts like Cristina and Guy. Thoroughly recommended! More...

Hi. I don't often write gushing reviews but this company were, once again, incredibly helpful so it is my way of saying thank you to Cristina and co. They managed to sort out quite complex (to me) tax situation on my tax return this week - and have done so in the past too - and it just makes a confusing situation a total breeze ... because they really know what they are doing with accountancy matters and just sort it out for me while I wait.(And they're really nice!). Thanks chaps ... x More...

Why is it so important for businesses to hire a great accountant?
At Taxfile we believe that individuals, the self-employed and businesses should pay the *right* amount of tax at the right time, having accounted for all allowable expenses. It's also important to file documents on time with HMRC so as to avoid HMRC penalties which, these days, can be pretty hefty. Getting it right from the start will avoid possible problems – and costs – in the future.
What do you love most about your job?
At Taxfile we genuinely love helping people. It's what we do best and it's encouraging to see so many new customers come back again, year on year, and become one of our many regulars.
What inspired you to start your own business?
Guy Bridger started 'Taxfile' as it's known (Guy Bridger Ltd being the 'official' name) after seeing how frustrating it often was for people to sort out their tax matters. Even a supposedly simple tax return can be very tricky for someone who isn't sure which figures are correct and what expenses can be offset against income. Tax can be a nightmare for those who aren't in the industry ... but for Taxfile it's second nature and we genuinely love helping people sort their tax affairs out.
Why should our clients choose you?
Taxfile honestly do their very best for each and every customer. We're incredibly experienced, knowledgeable, professional and, what's more, we're a friendly team! We're also multi-lingual so if English is not your first language, chances are we have someone who speaks your mother tongue (currently including English, Arabic, Dari, Dutch, French, Hungarian, Mauritian Creole, Pashto, Polish and Russian).
