PKF Francis Clark

We commissioned PFK to provide a business valuation as one of 2 organisations. This was initially conducted by Nick Woodmansey. They sent over an initial set of generic questions. They were delayed, and clearly uninterested, they did not follow up or come to visit the business. When challenged on their approach against the stated terms they halted work and called into question the conduct of our MD with no validation for this, when pressed as a formal complaint Andrew Richards tried to swerve the issue finally accepting 'I would agree that the word “conduct” was not well chosen and not one I would have used. However, as this had been fed back to another party the damage had been done with no repercussions or justification. As a business that has traded for over 16 years on the South Coast, I would avoid PFK at all costs the experience and their approach to any client issues is to deny and avoid.

I do not recommend Francis Clark. They only did the bare minimum to help my business and frequently wasted my time. This included making me drive an hour to Bournemouth because they'd forgotten to tell me the event was cancelled. When asked to complete my accounts within a 2 month window, they waited until the final evening to complete them. Subsequently i found a new accountant, but have now waited over a month for them to pass on the relevant documentation, something they still have not done, forcing me to write this review. They're unprofessional and will not help your business.

I Would highly recommend Francis Clark - Poole Office. The tax Accountant who looked after me was Fiona, she was prompt with her report and answers, easy to contact by phone - great service!
