E-Crunch Ltd (Crunch) is an unprofessional company

E-Crunch Ltd (Crunch) is an unprofessional company in their business dealings with a client.
Due to this unprofessional attitude and their actions our company, as a client of Crunch, received a severe set back with our business roll out in the UK.
Please be aware of the unprofessional status of Cunch before contemplating doing business with them.

Hi Darroll,

Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback. We sincerely regret the frustration and inconvenience this situation has caused your company, especially in light of your UK business rollout.

As a regulated accountancy firm, we are legally required to perform comprehensive due diligence and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) checks on all prospective clients. Unfortunately, the information gathered during these mandatory regulatory checks led to the difficult decision that we would be unable to proceed with our appointment as your accountant.

We understand that this is disappointing news, but we must prioritise compliance. We assure you that the decision and subsequent communication were handled in accordance with our strict professional and regulatory obligations.

Our accountants have already been in touch to explain our position, and we'll respect your decision to decline further explanation from our AML officer. Please be assured that as we are actively processing the closure of your account, we're also initiating a full refund.

We wish you and your business the very best as you move forward.

All the best,

Katie

Professional and friendly service

Professional and friendly service. I've been with Crunch since 2013/14 and don't have any complaints. I appreciated the recent personalised accountancy tax optimiser call (with Nicholas House) as a way of housekeeping, since I regularly forget / get confused about different requirements and deadlines.

After 15 years...

I’ve been with Crunch for around 15 years and am now closing my company. While my accounts haven’t always been perfect, no matter how challenging things got, the team has always been there to help. Their customer service is, without question, the best I’ve experienced with any company. Over the years, every single person I’ve spoken to on the support line has been consistently friendly, genuinely committed to resolving issues, and highly knowledgeable about both the platform and accounting processes. The accountants are equally impressive. Whoever has led and maintained this standard deserves recognition, they should win an award and be teaching other companies how true customer service is done. Thank you guys for all your help over the years with my awful accounts.

New client here, and I'm happy overall

I'm a new client and so far, the Crunch team has been swiftly dealing with all my queries. I had a VAT threshold panic last week and Glenn Cobb put my mind at ease after running some accounting projections.

Great service, my 2nd business with Crunch and have been a happy customer since first using them 10 years ago. Great software that I have seen evolve, and the accountants on the other end of the phone Mon-Fri is critical for me!

Just started with Crunch

Just started with Crunch. They have been extremely helpful in setting up the system and providing accounting advice on a range of topics. The accountant Glenn, and Craig the account manager, have both been excellent and very responsive. The system seems straightforward to use, but for any queries these are dealt with quickly and effectively.

Service received was truly exceptional

Service received was truly exceptional. Thea went above and beyond supporting me with my company’s admin work. The Crunch tool as always is straight forward but I do still require that additional support that the Crunch team Daniel’s and this last time, Thea, provide me with.

Successful onboarding to Crunch from another accountant

The Crunch online platform is up-to-date and generally intuitive and straightforward to use. Narendra went through the platform and service on a video call, and answered my questions, which was very helpful.

I moved my company from another accountant, and while this process took around 2 months, most of that time was taken up by me entering details and reconciling bank account payments from the start of the financial year, and then waiting for information from the previous accountant.

I had a useful video call with one of the accountants, Eleri, which was helpful as she answered various questions relating to the transfer of accounts.

Everything is now in place thanks to some great work by Narendra, Eleri, Tom and others in the team.

Thank you all for a successful onboarding experience transferring from my previous accountant.
