I would like to thank Simon A Martin for coming to my rescue last year when I had to file my company accounts before a December 31st deadline. My bookkeeper had everything ready but wasn’t qualified to do the filing and I was about to go on holiday abroad. I asked friends for recommendations and Dean Barrow was the name that kept coming up.
A quick drive to Honiton resulted and I got to meet Mark Rich, the business manager for Simon A Martin… I thought, well with a name like ‘Rich’ I must be in the right place! Mark was very efficient and managed to squeeze a checklist of documents out of me at speed. Talk about efficient onboarding.
Moreover, Dean delivered my accounts on time, enabling me to go away without worrying about a fine from Companies House. He also went on to do my tax return, making some wise adjustments to ensure I was paying the right amount.
Then I got to meet Claire Barrow and heard about their discounted accounting software partnership offer. I decided to migrate from Quickbooks to Sage. It was a no-brainer really as it was a cost saver of around £240 per year. The migration was automatic and since then Claire has worked on our account personally to see everything is in order.
Simon A Martin is a caring family business with great values and community spirit with excellent attention to detail and an ability to deliver under pressure. I highly recommend Dean and Claire Barrow and the team at Simon A Martin
