Contacted this firm to be taken on as a client. Initial phone call all fine but there-after, subsequent phone calls and emails met with complete inaction. Eventually gave up and have engaged a different (larger) firm. I understand that Dunkley's may not wish to take on a relatively low value client such as myself at this time, and that is their right, but I would have expected the professional courtesy to be told this rather than just be blanked, which I found very unprofessional.

Being a new customer to Dunkleys has been a fantastic experience and I would strongly recommend the company and the staff to anyone thinking of changing from their long term accountant and definitely if youre new to business! They are very approachable, knowledgable, professional and a pleasure to deal with! Very happy to be one of their new accounts!
