THIS IS A MOST FRAUDULENT COMPANY

THIS IS A MOST FRAUDULENT COMPANY, THEY POSED ON MY BEHALF WITH THE HMRC, INFILTRATED MY PERSONAL TAX RECORDS, HAD HMRC SEND THEN MY PERSONAL TAX ALLOWANCE THAT WAS DUE, WITHOUT MY CONSENT. THIS COMPANY HAVE LIED REPEATEDLY THAT THEY HAD RETURNED THE CHEQUE TO THE HMRC, BUT TO DATE AFTER TWO YEARS OF BATTLING FOR THE RETURN OF THE FUNDS - HMRC HAVE RECEIVED NOTHING, AND ARE NOW PURSUING ME FOR THE FUNDS THAT THEY PAID BROOKSDALE, FROM MY OWN PERSONAL TAX - OUTRAGEOUS - EVERYONE BE VERY WARY OF ENGAGING ON ANY LEVEL WITH BROOKSDALE LTD

I cannot believe that these charlatans still trade

I cannot believe that this charlatan company is still trading. They do not answer telephones, they do not respond to emails and they do not acknowledge requests to remove them from MY tax account as an agent. Their posted telephone number 0161 543 1973 is not recognised and they have used a copied and pasted digital signature I used for a PPI claim at no time giving them a permanent right to handle my tax affairs. All of my tax refund cheques have been forwarded by HMRC to them and that is the last I hear of then. I should also note that their posted 5 star ratings end in 2023 and their 1 star ratings are all they have received in 2024. I really do not believe that those people who have posted high satisfaction rating are real. I have been trying to contact them for ever without any joy. Many others, if you search the company, have had the same experience ... deplorable

Brooksdale Ltd

Brooksdale Ltd. is a SCAM!
1. Their website has been taken down
2. Their emails now take you to a different website: UK PCP CLAIMS / THE CLAIMS GUY LEGAL: TCGL - Your Finance: tcg dash legal dot com.
Trust me, they are anything but "legal"! 😶

I hope this comment is not taken down so that it reaches the public!

I too would give no stars if possible.

I too would give no stars if possible.
We did not instruct Brooksdale but they requested a tax refund from HMRC in the wrong name. Apparently returned it and received the correct one. We only knew anything about this as HMRC advised they had sent a cheque to Brooksdale. After months of hassle we eventually received our ‘share’. Earlier this year we got a demand from HMRC for the return of the refund, I immediately sent off a cheque for the amount we received and advised Brooksdale to pay the amount they had kept as they had obviously made a big error. They completely ignored this and we ended up with a debt collector chasing us. So we paid up. I have contacted Brooksdale for recompense but you won’t be surprised to hear they have been silent.
Now to add insult to injury they are bombarding us with letters say they can get refunds on car finance. I am about to report them to the ombudsman.

If I could give no stars I would

If I could give no stars I would. We have written 4 times regarding a tax refund that was sent to Brookdale from HMRC. He has never received anything from Brookdale with regards to the refund or out letters. Further more he never instructed Brookdale to look after his tax affairs. Total scam.

Just pointing out to anyone reading the reviews. Have you noticed how Brookdale respond to the 5 star reviews but totally ignore the ones where people like myself leave negatives. This is most probably because the 5 star reviews are not genuine.

Please check out their reviews on Google they have shed loads of negative reviews for many many different reasons

Brooksdale have had my Tax Refund money…

Brooksdale have had my Tax Refund money for ages now. I've sent numerous emails and no reply. HMRC sent a letter advising they have sent the money to them. Yesterday or today I received an email requesting I submit the details of car finance to claim money back. Now I find out they are in liquidation. I guess my money is totally lost.

I’m still waiting for my refund

I’m still waiting for my refund. Brooksdale seems to be avoiding me. They never reply to me. They still have my money and it’s legal for them to hold your hard working money. HMRC should really stop this completely. Despite previous complaints HMRC still allowing this happen until today.

No refund, No contact or reply via phone or email…

Continued to recieve a significant amout of emails from Brooksdale re diesel car, PPI claims etc. I was stupid enough to engauge this company on a ppi intrest refund. I never recieved it although payment was sent to them by HMRC. Contacting Brooksdale is impossible by phone or email.This company needs and should be investigated. Do not use this company. BE WARNED.
