What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Birmingham-based Makes Sense Accountants draws consistent praise for the accountancy and payroll work it handles for sole traders, limited companies and longer-standing business clients. A number of customers describe years of continuous engagement, with one noting he has used the firm for more than a year and another reporting multiple limited companies supported under the same roof.

Tim is named repeatedly and is credited with resolving a backlog of problems inherited from a previous accountant, as well as with prompt replies to questions sent by message or email. Reviewers frequently highlight guidance on VAT and HMRC matters, mentioning a potential inspection that was handled with clear direction and careful attention to detail. The practice is repeatedly described as proactive, with advice on saving money offered at an initial meeting before any work was formally agreed.

Reliability and met timescales come up often, alongside friendly and helpful responses to queries raised mid-engagement. Clients note that handled efficiently, the accounting leaves them free to concentrate on running their businesses. The mix of bookkeeping and payroll support, straightforward explanations and a wide network of contacts rounds out the recurring picture. Advice on keeping accounts in order remains the thread running through the feedback.

I reached out to Makes Sense Accountants for support around a potential VAT inspection, and they were excellent from the start. They provided clear guidance, were very reassuring, and made sure everything was in order. Their professionalism and attention to detail gave me real peace of mind, and it was clear they know exactly what they’re doing when it comes to HMRC matters. Even though the inspection didn’t end up going ahead, I really appreciated their support and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Makes Sense Accountants to anyone needing reliable and knowledgeable accountants.
