"The best accounting and audit team I have worked with. Mr. Buhair is exceptionally supportive and helpful. He always delivers more than requested and goes beyond to make sure we are taken care of. Honest, professional, and excellent service!" Truly a professional and helpful team, I highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable financial services.
Total Books really help take the stress out of self-assessment. Clear, highly knowledgeable and attentive. Lovely accountants to work with.
Really good people to work with. Their Work ethics really rubs off on to you. Trustworthy and and truly an expert on what they do.
Had a great meeting with Buhir Rafiq. Buhir walked us through out current tax situation saving us a large CGT bill and helped in future planning for a property business, discussing setting up LTD, with how to best make use of different structures such as using SPVs to support our future plans. Looking forward to working with Buhir into the future.
I am a little bit taken a back, I emailed a general enqury to the "Senior Accountant" earlier today, received a call from a mobile number, quite dismissive and rude in my opinion, has no idea who he had called (after he called me) - really surprised after such great reviews? email was submitted to amughal Update: Buhir Kindly called me as mentioned in the company reply, and admitted they did hang up on the call, as they did not want to discuss pricing further "or go into a word war" as they described. I even evidenced another practice who followed up with a very genuine email to showcase what I would have expected. Finally, Buhir requested that I remove my review, regardless of my experiance. Please provide a great service, regardless of relationship, I made a genuine business enquiry and was hung up on because I questioned the pricing, no follow up email unlike every other company i have spoken to, no attempt to explain why the service is 4x more expensive than other quotes, not someone i would choose to do business with, and no, I will not remove a genuine review Buhir.
Called regarding an enquiry about tax planning and Inheritance tax. Buhir was an absolute pleasure to talk to, he took his time explaining my options and his wealth of experience definitely shows. Thank you Buhir.
Bahir was very professional and helpful. He answered all my questions, and I am especially grateful for the initial phone call we had. Thank you very much!
