Brad K has been supportive throughout multiple experiences with the face2face team at Croner. He has been brill at keeping us in the loop and providing explanations and advice every step of the way. We would not have been able to get some of these tough situations without him and the rest of the face2face / Croner team. I couldn't reccommend their support enough.

Aggresive and misleading sales tactics

I inadvertantly ended up speaking to this company for advice through a website link which claimed to be ACAS advice, and after talking to a very helpful agent who despite Croners denials passed herself off as working for ACAS, I naivly accepted a free consultation with what I again assumed was to be an ACAS rep (which I did find strange) I was subsequently faced with what turned out to be a high pressure salesman from Croner, and after about 2 hours of high pressure sales talk and scare tactics, stupidly signed for a HR contract (which it turns out is totally unnecesary for our microbusiness) assuming that I could just opt out within the cooling off period, turns out this is not the case, and a simple scrawl on an ipad is sufficient to tie you into an overpriced and totally unnecessary (at least to me), contract, as such I immediately cancelled the Direct Debit and called the salesman to advise my concerns only to basicly be told 'tough, you can't cancel; followed be various e mails from the Company showing total contempt, subsequently, despite not having even having entered anything about our Company on their systems or responding to any of their on line course requests etc. we are now, predictably being aggresively pursued for payments.
This type of company may be of use to larger organisations with multiple staff, although I have spoken to 2 other local companies who signed up to similar contracts, and wish they had never done so!
they would however have known full well that their product is not suited to a company like ours.
Strongly suggest that if you have HR enquiries take care not to click on any misleading links, we were later told by ACAS that they are well aware of companies like this initially misleading people into thinking they are not who they are!

Hi Phil, sorry to hear of your concerns with our service.

I can see our Solutions department have previously confirmed that we introduced ourselves as Croner's Employers Advice Line.

There were offers of resolution provided to you but I cannot see we have heard back from yourself.

We would like the opportunity to discuss potential resolutions with you again.

Thanks, David.


Update (10/07/2026)

It is with regret that we have still not heard from you regarding reaching a positive resolve moving forward.

Please could we kindly ask that you reach out to us at your earliest convenience in order to find a resolution.

We value your feedback and remain committed to resolving this matter. We look forward to hearing from you soon.

Before we began the meeting I was nervous about the whole Health & Safety Audit but when Cecil Burnett our auditor arrived he put my mind at ease.
Cecil was very thorough but explained everything clearly as we did our walk around our site and with his questions afterwards.
Thanks Croner and Cecil for getting our Health & Safety policy up to date.

Excellent f2f experience

I had a really positive experience working with Sam throughout a recent settlement agreement process. From start to finish, he was clear, reassuring, and easy to deal with, which made what could have been a stressful situation feel much more straightforward.

He explained each step in a way that was easy to understand and was always on hand to answer any questions. Overall, the process ran far more smoothly than I had anticipated, and that was largely down to Sam’s support and approach.

A genuinely lovely person to work with – professional, approachable, and reliable. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him.

Kenneth was a great support, very clear and reassuring about the whole H&S assessment and what we needed to do to become compliant and why. Followed up with risk assessments completed and offered additional support for any bespoke risk assessments.

What started out feeling like the…

What started out feeling like the administrative equivalent of climbing a mountain turned out to be a surprisingly painless experience thanks to Croner.

We engaged Croner to help prepare our HR, Health & Safety, and Fire Safety policies and procedures, and they have been helpful, responsive, and attentive throughout. The handbooks and documentation produced are clear, practical, and exactly what we needed.

A special mention goes to Katherina Thomas and Paul Leake, who were both fantastic to work with. Their knowledge, patience, and good humour made what could have been a very onerous task almost enjoyable (something I never thought I'd say about policy writing!).

If you're looking for professional support with compliance and documentation, I'd happily recommend Croner.

Case struck out QUICK!!

I had a employment tribunal and I had no idea what to do. I was quickly handed over to Chris Mills. He was described as an "expert" in Litigation. He lived up to that title!! He walked me through the process in terms I understood and put me at ease. Best thing was that he walked into the Tribunal one morning and got the whole case struck out before lunch. Cheaper than therapy! Get this guy on your case!

An excellent visit

We had an excellent visit from the auditor. The session was extremely informative and provided valuable insight into how we can further improve our service by making better use of the tools, systems, and skills already available to us. Ian was exceptionally knowledgeable, thorough, and professional throughout the visit. His wealth of experience and practical advice gave us a clear understanding of our strengths and areas for development. Overall, it was a very positive and productive experience.
