I have been with The Accountancy People for over 10 years. They provide an excellent service with regular emails and even Youtube bulletins on all matters relating to tax. This is particularly useful when changes are announced by the government. Any email enquiries are promptly replied to. I would highly recommend James and his wonderful team.

We have been a customer of The Accountancy People for nearly 5 years and throughout this time we have always received absolutely first class service. As a small company we don't have the in house accounts knowledge, however we have complete confidence in James and the team to look after our every need and advise us with our company's best interest in mind. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending these guys to anyone!

James and the whole team at The Accountancy People are outstanding at what they do. They go beyond the traditional 'accountants' and are always happy and eager to advise on the best possible options for your circumstances. They're always available to answer any questions, and turnaround anything asked of them very quickly. Most importantly, I've found they're exceptionally accurate, and always proactive.
Of course, this means they deliver superb value. 'Switching' accountants isn't something many of us consider - but it's made such a difference for my business switching to The Accountancy People.

Excellent Service & help with all aspects of my accounts. Working as a micro-business I have little time to spend on accounts and the team at The Accountancy People have looked after me brilliantly from the very beginning. I feel I am in safe hands and they answer queries in a very straightforward manner so I understand everything in order to decide what to do best for my business. Delighted with Kim and James. Thank you!

The Accountancy People are a helpful and truly professional company that have taken away the headache of managing my business account and have made life easy. Their staff are approachable and pragmatic in the way they deal their customers; I feel that I can contact them at any time for advice. I have recommended this organisation to friends and colleagues as I believe they are honest and helpful. It is a pleasure to work with them.

I, or rather we have used the service of the Accountancy People for a number of years now and found them to be very professional and helpful. Andrew and his team have gone that extra mile for us when we have needed them both privately and for our business accounts. I would have no problems in recommending The Accountancy People to anyone who is looking for a friendly and professional company to assist in any accountancy matters.

We would highly recommend The Accountancy People to any business! We have worked closely with them for a few years now and it has been a reliable and pleasurable service.

What a fantastic accountant. If you're a growing business looking for real value added support from your accountants then this is the firm for you. James attends my management meeting every month and presenting management accounts and offering practical support and guidance. He has helped us implement a new workflow management system, assisted with raising finance and much more. He really understands my business and therefore is able to tailor his services to meet the needs of the business.

Being a Solicitor offering professional services, I have had the opportunity to refer my clients and introduce my contacts to the Accountancy People. Paul Barnes is an accountant who actually cares about the people as well as the numbers. I meet Paul on a weekly basis and can fully vouch for the fact that Paul is a reliable, personable and an extremely professional individual. I would have no hesitation in recommending the Accountancy People.

Having recently worked at The Accountancy People I have constantly been impressed by the team's commitment to the needs of their clients, and their willingness to always spend extra time with them. It's great to see how a well qualified, efficient and friendly accountancy service can help transform businesses. The Accountancy People also have a great offering for professional contractor clients, offering a personal, face to face contractor accountant service, something which you may not find elsewhere in the Manchester area.

I have recommended the services of The Accountancy People to several business owners and they have informed me that they have received an excellent service, with the added bonus of a fincancial saving from their previous accountants. The team take an active interest in your business and how they can add value to you as a client as opposed to churning out accounts.

I've been with The Accountancy People for two years now, and they are definitely the best accountants I've used, after going through several over the years. James and his team are professional and proactive, they have introduced us to cloud based accounting software xero and know their stuff. As my business has grown over the past couple of years, I feel like they have kept up with our demands and where needed, recommended great experts such as our specialist xero book keeper.
