If I could give 6 stars, I would! Mike at Shoebox has been such a top guy. Starting a new business is scary. I've never touched on accounts, or tax, or anything company related for that matter, and Mike has been guiding me through it all. Approachable, professional and always makes himself avaliable whether by whatsapp, email or phone. I could not recommend Mike and Shoebox enough! More...

Michael has given me lots of advice and helped me claim for things I didn't even know I could claim for. Saved me a lot more than I've spent with them, so couldn't recommend enough

Excellent service , professional and efficient. Not being knowledgable in this area and newly self employed, my consultant Mike immediately put me at ease and took all the stress away. I was initially looking for a ‘one off’ service however I will be using them on a monthly basis moving forward , highly recommend . Thankyou Shoebox 🤗 More...

Having decided to begin my new Limited Company, I was recommended to use Shoebox by one of their existing clients. Thankyou Mike for your prompt attention and guidance in getting started. Mike very quickly set everything up and is a reassuring mentor for those who need a guiding hand in the early days of running a business. More...

My experience with Mike Hough has been unsatisfactory, very quick in asking for payment up front and then not carrying out the work , I’m now being ghosted …do not pay money to this company up front

Getting in touch with shoebox has been one of the best decisions I have made. Michael Hough has been very professional, succinct and yet personable. I never thought I would say this: I look forward to speaking to my accountant. I would recommend his services to anyone and have done already. Thank you. Dr C Parry More...

Been with shoebox a couple months now an Mike is fantastic. He's usually available even on weekends if you need to message or call. He will also offer advice on all your business areas so you don't spend money you don't have to spend. Overall a great guy and a great service; and at a decent price too. Very happy. More...

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I can’t recommend Mike at Shoe Box highly enough. From the very start, he has been nothing but helpful, always taking the time to explain things clearly and ensure I fully understand my accounts. No question ever felt too small, and he always had all the time in the world for me. His patience, professionalism, and expertise have made handling my finances so much easier. If you’re looking for an accountant who genuinely cares about his clients and goes the extra mile, Mike is the one to trust! More...

I can't recommend Mike and Shoebox highly enough, completely trustworthy and thorough with great, friendly communication.. ..I'd worked with Mike years ago with a complicated tax return situation, I doubt other accountants would have taken it on, but Mike worked tirelessly to make sure I was refunded everything owed....when I found myself needing tax help again years later, I didn't want to go anywhere else...such a minefield made so easy, many, many thanks!

Should have made the switch to Shoebox allot sooner. Excellent service and a personal touch that was missing over the 15+ years accountants only ever a phone or message away and the Mobile app used with the accountant couldn't be simpler.

An Accounting company that will look after small business. I’ve had more help and guidance during my first meeting than I’ve had in 18 months from my previous accounting firm. Wish I’d made the change sooner. Only at the start of our journey but very pleased so far. Recommend. More...

I've been a Perm employee for 25 years and circumstances resulted in me starting my own business. I was starting out from a very low understanding of how to navigate everything from taxation, processing invoices, expenses etc. Soapbox guided me through every step, explained things in terms I can understand and took away all of the worry. I love the fixed costs, their online toolset and advice whenever I need it. After just 9 months of running my own business, I'm now in a much stronger position to grow my business and feel confident I can do that with Soapbox working with me. I'd highly recommend them!

Fantastic service from Mike at Shoebox.
True to their word of high street service and online pricing. Mike is great at doing what is needed as an accountant, but really comes into a different league when it comes to his care and patience in educating you on the how’s, what’s and why’s of accounting.
I feel more relaxed, wiser and financially more secure because of Mike and Shoebox

Mike from Shoebox was courteous, friendly & efficient. As a newly self-employed person I needed to be talked through the process & have it explained more than once. Mike was patient & made sure I understood all details. I'd definitely recommend Shoebox to anyone needing help with tax returns. More...

I’m not in a position to review the end product with Shoebox as I’ve only just appointed them as my accountants. However in terms of initial contact, explanation of the process and friendliness of staff ( Michael) I can’t fault them. Charges seem very reasonable as well. More...
