Amazing service from the beginning, great Company to deal with and always at the other end of the phone if you need them to sort out any issues especially with the recent Covid 19 outbreak.
Anna and Isabella have looked after my businesses since the very beginning. They set-up my business account, handled my self assessment, payroll and all communication with Company House, compiled and calculated all returns for HMRC including VAT and Corporation tax in a timely manner and always providing me with much appreciated professional advices. They will not let you down and always will go the extra

Anna at Greenwich has been looking after our payroll for about 4 years now. Never a glitch, documentation arrives in plenty of time, very securely. Her help during Covid has been exemplary - she's done all the paperwork for us, all at very reasonable cost. I would highly recommend Greenlight. You're in safe hands.

I have been using Annas service to prepare and file my self assessments for the last 5 years. I find her knowledgeable in Property Tax. She has explained everything to me step by step and saved me time and money. I recommend her services to anyone who has a property rental income do declare.

My earlier post should have read Greenlight, not Greenwich. Windows Autocorrect strikes again!. Still a great company though...
