Duport Associates LTD Opiniones 

Had a great conversation with Boubacar about my business. Was really helpful and answered all my questions - and gave some beneficial advice as well. Thank you.

RUN!
I'm a sole trader (which is supposedly this company's sweet spot). I just spent a full afternoon doing a deep review of all of my accounting to find that they haven't done any sort of cash reconciliation, they overstated my financials, and build my tax return on that basis. You know something's wrong when your tax bill is more than you made for the year.

They placate and make excuses for why they didn't understand the business...even with a dead simple business like mine. This was sloppy, shoddy work and they should be ashamed of themselves for charging me what they charge.

Please steer clear. I wish I'd read the reviews more thoroughly before trusting them.
They are very keen to sell their service and seem even keener to bombard you with junk emails afterwards.
However when it comes to post order advice they are really quite abrupt. I took a wrong turn by appointing only myself as a shareholder. When them for advice on how to put things right i got a snotty response.
They may as well have just told me they have my money and don't care anymore.
Duport, please be assured that if in need further services I will go elsewhere.

I am a one man band operating a limited company. I have been with Duport for 10 years and whilst I am not the best at keeping my accounts up to date, Dupport are very helpful and keep from trouble with HMRC

The company is great and professional. The customer service is immaculate. Looking to setup your company?,look no further. I recommend Duport. All my company needs, I know it’s all under one roof.

I was bit apprehensive of using them but i can say it was very good service. Also, when i mess up by putting the wrong year on the accounts, they re-done and and re-submit them with any fuss-thank you Indira

Duport accountants have helped me set up and run my limited company without any problems. Alison at payroll services has been very helpful and has made sure the payroll works quickly and efficiently so I get all my documents on time and know what is happening. Boubacar, my accountant, has resolved all the issues that I have found hard to understand and made sure my accounting is done smoothly and efficiently too. All the other members at Duport answer all my questions when I contact them, and have given me all the support I need so far. Their attention is always friendly. I thoroughly recommend them.

We have been really happy with Duport, special mention to Alison in payroll. She has been brilliant since the start.

A catalogue of errors within our time with Duport, if you are a business that is larger than a sole trader (this seems to be their sweet spot) - avoid this organisation at all costs.

Their customer service is appalling. They have a slick sales process, but that support ends as soon as you sign.

Once on the other side, they lack the resources to do the most basic of tasks.

Worse, they do not even have an internal chartered accountant that oversees your accountants. This is outsourced to an external provider (this is not disclosed to you).

We found this out by asking if our accountant was chartered (they said yes) - then after we searched on ACCA and found no record, we were then informed that they actually were not chartered. And that this oversight was provided by a third-party.

Then it came to running payroll. Despite repeated follow-ups on our side (starting two weeks in advance) they were unable to execute this quite simple task. We had to hire another accountant at short notice so that we could pay our staff on time.

In short - do not be tempted by the cost.

There are other providers which offer very similar services, but which are actually run by real, chartered accountants.

I can't express in any stronger terms - avoid this company.

Really good service and attempted to help throughout the process.

Very helpful, both by email and telephone, efficient and patient. My thanks to Boubacar Sow.

I've relied on the services of Duport Accountants for a decade and counting. In this time, I've felt well supported with regular visibility of the financial health of my company. Response to my queries has been prompt including urgent ones. The service from Duport Accountant is simply superb! This is only possible because of the fantastic professionals that work for Duport Accountants. A huge shout out to Boubacar Sow who has been amazing in delivering my accounts and offering excellent advise every time.

Duport's services were outstanding! Their email support was incredibly responsive, saving me a significant amount of time. They managed to form the company in less than one working day. I was exhausted by other agents who would take money without delivering and constantly request more documents, wasting precious time. Duport's website was impressive, aesthetically pleasing, and user-friendly. They performed their job to the utmost degree. I strongly recommend Duport to everyone for their exceptional services.

Ill-informed hacks. Don’t use them if you want to pay the right taxes and not be screwed.

Not only did I have to re-do my tax filings because the numbers were off (basically negating the need for accountants to begin with), but they marked my self assessment as not needing to have payment on account, without telling me that I need to update HMRC if my situation changed. I told them when I hired them that I don’t have tax knowledge which is why I was hiring them in the first place. Well, when I came to do my next self assessment I was charged an extra £751 in late penalties by HMRC because I didn’t have payment on account.

To add insult to injury, they kept sending me automated emails with self assessment forms at £0 asking me to sign them, so I replied to one saying that I had already filed it and complained about the late penalties I had been charged. A super uninformed person called Boubacar gave me a call and told me I didn’t need to file self assessment anyway because not everyone that makes more than £100K has to file one. So, they don’t even know the tax rules. I have this in email from him too.

Seriously, don’t trust these people. They also gave me bad advice initially and told me to register as a sole trader and then later changed it to a limited company, meaning more work for absolutely no reason.

Avoid!

Excellent accounting service for a self employed sole trader, easy to contact and a very streamlined process.
I would highly recommend Duport accounting services to anyone thinking of starting their own business. Accounting made simple

Easy to use.
I have used Duport for years and they have files all my paperwork easily each month.

had a dreadful week not Duport fault but Duport went beyond assisting / pick pieces up for me and delivered, then sorted any issues in minutes.

Indira was professional and efficient to work with, completed my accounts on time and filed with companies house. Easy to work with and understood my business. Highly recommend.

Top Notch. really loving the service from the team at Duport. Boubacar my accountant has so far proved to be a great help in getting me on my feet as a new company.

The real proof will be when we are up and running and trading on all fronts.

very impressed with this company so far. easily assessible.
