I spent over 4 years with the team at Bright Ideas. Syed was my main con tact and it was the best contracting agency I have worked with.. Syed made my life very simple and everything was completed and resolved in a very efficient manner. He was always available on the phone and I really appreciated this kind of service. I highly recommend these guys - you cant go wrong.

Syed was our accountant for a year and provided great service! My business partner and I had just started our own company and knew very little about the accountancy/financial side of things. It's been so helpful to have someone to ask for guidance and assistance with financial/tax/hmrc/furlough questions! Definitely recommend Syed if you're looking for an accountant :-)

Thomas has been an excellent accountant. I knew hardly anything about starting my own company and setting up my accounts. And i was hand held along the journey. Getting to a point where i know some basics , but nevertheless Thomas has replied to my emails within a day usually, and if he doesn't then its only because hes on a well deserved break off work!
As i said already, the best part of this is that there is no rudeness or any judgement against me when i am asking to be walked through every single step, they run a good business which values their clients.
He has also given me some useful advice

Everything has been very easy and he’s always gone the extra mile, extremely happy with the service, thanks guys!

Michael has been my accountant for the past three years and I highly recommend him. Always helpful and prompt and this year has got my self-assessment submitted on Saturday 30 January despite me only contacting him about it on the 28th (I was reminded in plenty of time too!)

We've been using Bright Ideas for 3 years and have never had a problem.
Communications have always been good, clear and responsive, with good advice on matters we were unsure about.
We've been dealing with Syed for a while.
In the middle of a mortgage application, we requested an accountants' certificate on a Friday afternoon, unfortunately during a week when Syed was on holiday. Despite without a doubt coming back to a plethora of mails to deal with, Syed promptly replied on Monday and updated the certificate after a first version was not quite right (due to me not being precise about what
