We have just finished our first year with Astrum Accountants and their service really has been top notch. We have had experience with many other account firms in the past but Astrum have been by far the best, going above and beyond for our business whenever we need them. I would highly recommend.

Astrum have been amazing with helping me understand my business and patient explaining the nuances of accountancy.I choose Quickbooks online for my software and Astrum have staff who are fully trained on quickbooks (as well as Xero) which was a huge benefit to me.The whole team are fantastic to work with, friendly, professional, quick to respond and knowledgeable.

Dear Martin and team,Just wanted to write to you to express my joy at finally finding an accountant that can provide quality help and advice to my business. You took over our accounts in 2017 and sorted out several issues left over from bookkeepers/accountants we've used previously. I like the fact you are local and expanding as a company.Your customer service is second to none and I look forward to many more years of you not only being our accountant but moving over to being our 'financial department'. When my wife started looking for a new accountant last year she read your Google reviews which are all 5-star rated and I was a little sceptical but right from our first meeting I knew you and your team would be able to help us grow as a company.Absolutely no regrets and I highly recommend Martin and his team if you have any doubts at all about the current service your bookkeeper/accountant currently provides. Don’t leave it too late. Call Martin now you won’t regret it either!James Pike, MD, LocalReach Ltd More...

Martin and his team are an absolute delight and pleasure to work with. The moment I met Martin I knew his calm, clear thinking and his desire to provide the best accountancy service for his clients, that his company, Vincent Ventures Ltd was for me. It is one of the best business investments I have made, saving me huge amounts of time and effort dealing with things that are just not my strength.....They are Martins though and therefore we are a great fit....The cherry on top of the cake is me and my business feel cared for, our best interests at heart, that's such a rare experience in todays fast paced world. Thanks Martin and the team :) More...

We decided to incorporate RA Motion this Autumn and after seeing great reviews, we decided to have a chat with Martin to see if he could help us. We're very glad we did! The team have handled almost everything their side, making the transition to a limited company and becoming VAT registered very smooth and stress free. We’ve had a lot of questions since then and Martin has been very patient answering and explaining everything clearly, thoroughly and quickly.The change has been very exciting and, at times, very confusing, so we couldn’t have done it without his support and advice - Martin certainly knows his stuff! Would we recommend Vincent Ventures? Definitely. More...

Coming from a corporate background where I had professionals to advise me, to running my own business was a minefield of paperwork, regulations and deadlines. Vincent Ventures not only guided me through the initial months but have provided a subsequent professional and supportive service. They are with you at every turn and will offer assistance and advice to ensure you have a stress free accounting experience. They will give you the confidence to grow your business knowing that they not only will support you with your financial issues but also support you commercially wherever possible. More...

He always has excellent communication, being fast and efficient in answering any questions whether by phone or email. Martin is very knowledgeable and has good understanding of our business needs. Being honest, friendly and reliable we can’t fault him or Vincent Ventures. More...

Martin is a fantastic communicator and manages his work extremely efficiently. He always makes himself available to chat on occasion even well outside of regular office hours. I find his pricing to be extremely reasonable and as a start-up it's very comforting to know that I'm not "on the clock" every time I speak with him about an accounting issue. His advice has been extremely valuable and has doubtless saved us thousands of pounds and a lot of time. In my opinion Vincent Ventures offer a must-have service for any small business and if you're an early stage business; the sooner you speak with them the better. More...

Starting my own business was full of many uncertainties and I am extremely thankful for Vincent Ventures help. They helped me from start to finish with setting up the company and handling VAT & other tax affairs. Under their guidance they ensured I followed all the necessary steps, but also made sure I was involved in the process and kept up to date with what was happening. Martin's wisdom is always appreciated and he seems to always know what to do in any situation. Without him I would not be in the stable & secure position I am in today, which leaves me to focus on my business without worrying about financial affairs. I would highly recommend him and his company to anyone. More...
