Appeal My Rates were very professional and managed to secure a substantial reduction in our rateable value. We were kept updated on a regular basis. I would definitely recommend their services

We will check your rates demand, effective dates, any transitional relief that may apply and any potential refunds due. In many cases the rateable value is too high and we will examine if it is fair and if necessary appeal the level and conduct all negotiations with the valuation office on your behalf. Since April 2008 empty rates allowance was abolished in most cases. We will advise you how to mitigate any rates on empty properties using our knowledge and extensive experience.

Thank you very much for getting my…

Thank you very much for getting my rates sorted. After trying since 2013 and trying different companies, which took my money and did nothing. These guys managed to get my rates to zero in less than 6 months.
Highly recommend them.
Thanks to all the team especially Lucy who kept me informed all the way through.

Mid Devon Council were trying to charge me Business Rates

Mid Devon Council were trying to charge me Business rates on my equestrian property, even though it was just our family home, and had never been used for business purposes, and when I phoned them to complain there were very unhelpful.
One phone call to Appeal My Rates UK Ltd was dealt with very professionally, and promptly, and I was soon assured that they were confident that they would be able to resolve this issue for me. This was exactly what I was hoping to hear, and true to their word they dealt with Mid Devon Council on my behalf and got my rates demand reduced to zero.
A huge thank you to Appeal my Rates

Couldn’t recommend enough

I believed I was paying too much in business rates and after a quick Google search came across Appeal My Rates and gave them a call. They were very helpful in explaining the process and within a couple of days someone came to inspect our property and they confirmed my thoughts and explained the ways in which they believed the rateable value could be reduced. They then went away and formalised this and I only needed to give them access to my VOA account as an agent of ours and that was the extent of my input. It took a while due to covid back logs with the VOA but eventually (after a year) I heard back and they reduced my rates by a significant amount. Making back the amount I paid Appeal My Rates back within a couple of months with my new reduced rates bill. Very much recommended.

A brilliant service

I contacted appealmyrates because the Council had made an inaccurate listing which was accepted by the VOA.
In a very short space of time the job was done and I can’t recommend appealmyrates highly enough. They were brilliant.

AMR saved us £40,000 on our rates

Having received Zero £ rate bills for over 7 years we were distraught when retrospective Business rate demands of over £40,000 were sent to us at the end of our lease.
We approached Appeal My Rates AMR) for help. Our situation proved to be technically quite complex. AMR navigated the rules/regs. and interface with Business Rates. They removed the 'worry' and saved us a lot of money.

Helpful, professional and very, very rewarding.

We approached Appeal My Rates to review our business rates. The surveyors were very friendly and helpful, working well with us in gathering the information required. We then sat back and waited for the results. We were kept up to date with what the Valuation Office were doing (do not expect this stage to happen quickly . . . ). Then the results!
Needless to say a positive result always helps, but whatever the result, we would have been happy with the thorough service we received from Appeal My Rates.

I highly recommend Appealmyratesuk as the best.
At the end of last year, I received a business rate tax on a building that had been destroyed in a fire and rendered unusable before I bought it.
Because of the existence of the building on the VOA list, the council urged me to pay taxes for the past 6 years, and VOA did not work smoothly due to Covid-19, and I fell into a desperate state.
However, over the past year, Appealmyratesuk has continued to communicate with the council to defer the tax deadline, and with his expertise, he has worked hard until the end, raising the issue with the VOA.
After all, recently I succeeded in getting a tax exemption.
I am infinitely grateful to Paul Phillips and the admin team at Appealmyratesuk who worked hard and achieved the best results, highly recommended. Lee

An excellent and honest company

After being fearful of companies offering to appeal business rates and subsequent negative reviews, I would highly recommend using Appealmyratesuk after a very successful claim against our business rates. We had tried several times to appeal direct without any success but discussed it with the team who thought we had a valid claim. They kept me informed of their progress along the way and eventually our company was rewarded in excess of £12,000 with further savings in the future. Excellent communication from start to finish.
