Chaotic and unresponsive operation
Sadly on this occasion the service I received from Chris at SQK Accountancy was subpar and disappointing.
* I found their operation often unresponsive, forcing me to make follow up calls to chase my unread messages and emails.
* I also found their operation overwhelmed and chaotic. My correction requests were often overlooked so I had to waste time and highlight the same mistakes again. They ultimately submitted my company accounts with one of those errors still unfixed, despite me having highlighted it to them on 3 separate occasions - when confronted and despite them being 100% at fault, I received no apology and was merely guided to submit a correction request to HMRC via post myself resulting in delay in my loan application.
* They are also not a native Quickfile accountant, therefore you are asked to refill all your details again on their proprietary portal and progress your work there rather than directly in Quickfile.
Very Good, fast

Great service, excellent price
Chris at SQK efficiently and quickly completed and filed our year end accounts at very short notice, thus saving us potential penalties from HMRC. Thanks Chris for a great service.
Very efficient and quick
Very efficient and quick at processing my QuickFile accounts.
Reasonable prices for a small company.
Great
great service
Brilliant!
This is how everything should be in life. Fast, efficient, smooth, painless, cost effective. What more do you want?
Efficient and great value
I used SQK for Year End submissions to HMRC/Companies House. Chris was timely and efficient. The process was completed in about a week with no problems or extra work on my part. And for a micro company like mine with a small turnover the fee is sensible too.
Would definitely use again and recommend.
Good work
effortless work good job
Quick, Easy and Efficient
SQK Accountancy delivered a no fuss experience. My accounts were simple enough for a micro limited company. I use QuickFile and to some extent I thought this would be straightforward and it was.
No stress, no delays and no worries.
Happy to use them again for next year.
Faultless and professional EOY Accounts and Tax Return preparation and submission
SQK Accountancy provided my company with an exceptional service, completing and filing our End Of Year Accounts and Tax Return in a timely and professional manner.
Chris was more than attentive and provided us with an impeccable and faultless service from initial engagement to final submission.
Having used “big name” high street accountancy practices in the past, and who charge exorbitant fees yet expect most of the work to be done for them, I can honestly say that the experience of using SQK was an absolute dream in comparison.
I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending SQK Accountancy and I will certainly be using them in the future.
Thanks SQK and I look forward to engaging you again at the end of this financial year.
Very good customer experience and prompt turn-around time
We are extremely impressed with SQK Accountancy. We used SQK Accountancy to file our annual corporation tax and Companies House records in April 2018 and in-turn had an excellent customer experience.
Our initial contact was via telephone, and we spoke to an engaged and motivated staff member called Ian. He noted Chris would be in contact with us and provided a follow-up time-frame. Chris contacted us exactly inside of this time-frame and kept us up-to-date on the HMRC and Companies House submission progress. Additional contact was via email and he was also quick to respond to emails.
The full accountancy job was done within a week, and far exceeded our expectations. We got fair pricing, prompt service, and customer care from multiple support staff who clearly cared about our company. They re-affirmed this care by correcting any minor issues in our QuickFile book keeping and explaining their rationale in layman terms.
I thoroughly recommend you give SQK Accountancy a try.
Excellent Service
We received an excellent service from SQK Accountancy, communication was made promptly and evrything was handled in an efficient and professional manner.

Accountancy
SQK Accountancy were great in responding to queries and acted promptly. I would recommend them to anyone looking for good, professional service.
Hassle free
I had a very good experience with SQK accountancy. All my concerns were addressed and questions answered. The accounts and tax return were submitted in a timely manner, at a high standard, and also at a very good price.
Excellent
Great Service and really efficient. From requesting end of first year accounts through to the final submission to CH and HMRC, everything was completed in less that two weeks. Amazing service. Over the years I have had many experiences of local accountants who are 'here for you' but seem to take forever and never explain what it happening yet in the time it would usually take to get to see a local accountant, the accounts were completed and submitted, and Chris keeps you informed and guides you through the process. Thanks
Fast, clear, excellent.
SQK were very quick to pick up our request (through Quickfile) and immediately provided a clear timeline on which they'd get the accounts sorted. Everything was explained carefully and Mr Vickers was just generally very helpful and friendly. Many thanks!
Quick and Professional
I would highly recommend SQC Accountancy, I felt them to be very professional and everything progressed smoothly. (They even worked over the weekend to get thing done)
Smooth process all along
This is the second year that we have used SQK for our year end accounts. We found the previous year so easy that we just had to use them again!
Dealing with SQK Accountancy was easy, they were very professional and the turnaround was done smoothly and quickly. All my questions were answered efficiently and the whole process was stress free.
Thanks SQK!
Highly recommend
Great service, helpful, professional.
Very good
I think Chris was very helpful and responsive and I have no complaints. He seemed quite willing and generous with his advice and the process was simple.
I'd recommend commicating by email as quicker than via quickfile.
Great Service
Fast service. no problems
Fast, responsive and generally great
I found Chris to be excellent in preparing and submitting our annual accounts for our small property letting and services company. I would certainly recommend him to anyone with similar requirements.
Faultless
SQK helped us prepare and file our year end accounts. In the past I have had accountants who asked a million questions and had me preparing all sorts, so much so that I felt I was doing the work myself and then they charged me an insane amount. SQK were are absolute dream. Very reasonable costs, stated up front with no hidden charges or surprises. Chris asked me a handful of questions and then quietly and efficiently went about his business. The value for money and the service I received was faultless. I cannot recommend them too highly. Will definitely use them from now on.
Great Job, fast responses, very happy
Chris did an excellent job, answered all my newbie queries and helped me through the process. I highly recommend and will be using Chris and SQK services the next time and for any future queries.
First annual returns - and SQK couldn't have been more helpful!
SQK provided accountancy support for my company's first annual returns, and I was very impressed by the support I got from Chris. He responded quickly to my questions and gave useful pointers for my future record keeping. Wonderful.
Full accounts - year end
My accountant Chris Vickers was very helpful and guided me through my first accounts submission. I highly recommend and will be using SQK services for future accounting needs.
This is how it should be...
...to be honest I had given up the will to live working with Accountants, countless unnecessary meetings (that of course are charged for and at ridicolous rates!), slow processing and just the feeling that you are trying to get blood from a stone. The first step in a big change was using Quickfile and them recommeding SQK Accounting with a fixed price so you knew where you stood and didn't faint with shock at the bill.
I was pleased at how seamless and easy the process was, Chris was a pleasure to deal with and unlike past feelings of never wanting to see past Accountants again I will be back to SQK Accounting for next years accounts. Thank you for restoring my faith.
Excellent
Chris was very helpful and responsive. He answered my questions clearly and worked diligently.
