online filing

Having completed my filing on the 13/04/26 I received a letter from companies house saying it was filed late and that I could be fined, so don't know what happened there. I then used online filings again to change the address and it went through no problem

It was quite interesting one with the online filling

It was quite interesting one getting some information you might need for the filling to complete it. I would have prefer if I had all the information I needed for the filling to be able to speed up the process. There could have been a link you could click on to get access to any information you needed for the filling.

Hi Gordon,

We’re sorry to hear you feel this way.

Having reviewed your order, it appears the filing could not be completed at this stage because the company authentication code was not entered. As part of the process, you selected the option within our form to request the code by post, which is a standard Companies House security requirement before filings can be submitted.

The authentication code can take up to 10 working days to arrive at your registered office. The code is issued and sent exclusively by Companies House via post, and the delivery timeframe is unfortunately beyond Online Filings’ control.

Our team responded to your email asking how we could assist further, but we have not yet received a reply.

Online Filings is a private filing service provider, and we do aim to make the filing process simpler by guiding customers through the required steps and checks.

We do appreciate your feedback and If you still require assistance, our team remains happy to help.

I have use Online fillings a few times for different services and they have always been prompt, reasonable price and they do everything you need in regards to Ltd company with no hassle . They are also recognised by HMRC & Companies house so there a trust worthy company. For all the hassle of doing it your self and getting it wrong, companies like OF are definitely worth the cost.

Please don't use this company

Please don't use this company. A big scam 3rd party though they pretend to be a government body. You won't be refunded if you mistake used any services. Always use gov.uk website. Emailed to customer service many times, but the lady keeps replying the same. Poor customer service.

Hi Mumtahin,

We are sorry to hear that this was your impression of our service.

To clarify, Online Filings is a private filing service provider and we do not claim to be a government body. Our website, pricing and checkout clearly state that we are an independent service and not affiliated with GOV.UK or Companies House. Filing directly with GOV.UK is always an option, and many customers choose our service to save time and receive assistance throughout the process.

Looking at your case, the dissolution filing was not completed because the authentication code entered during the authorisation step was incorrect. You were given the option to have the authentication code securely sent to your registered office address and then return to continue the filing once received, however you decided not to proceed further.

We appreciate your feedback regarding customer service. Our team replied based on the information available and the Companies House requirements needed to complete the filing.

We wish you the best with your business and remain happy to assist should you decide to use our service again in the future.

Profoundly Complicated

Having gained a Personal Code by identification at post office, then completing the input for the Company with acceptance of submission for the Confirmation Statement without use of the Personal Code followed by duplicate identification again needing use of a smart phone was profoundly complicated.

Hi,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that the process felt more complicated than expected.

As Online Filings is an Authorised Corporate Service Provider (ACSP) registered with Companies House and supervised by HMRC for Anti-Money Laundering compliance, we are required to verify the identity of all directors and users before any filing can be submitted through our platform. This is a mandatory requirement and is in place to ensure that all filings are properly authorised and compliant with UK regulations.

We understand that this process can sometimes be unfamiliar, and our Customer Experience team is always available to assist and guide users through each step where needed.

We would be happy to assist you again should you choose to file with us in the future.

Opportunists

Opportunists. Sent me an email with the title "Your Confirmation Statement is due soon". When I opened the email, it was scaremongering that I had a legal obligation to submit a confirmation statement and not doing so could result in penalties, but it was for a company I have no association with, that isn't local to me, and that I have never even heard of. No mention in the email that they're not actual the official government website so this definitely falls under the 'scam' category for me.

Opportunist website trying to make a fast buck

I was initially sucked in by an email from this company and thought it was the official reminder from Companies House. I went through some sort of ''verification' process - obviously bogus but which means they have now obtained my mobile no. by deception. It was only when I saw that they wanted £49 to change the details of a director [which should be completely free] that I realised that they were piggy-backing off the CH system. These type of companies should make it clear from the outset they are not the genuine government website and be fined for impersonation if they don't state this upfront.
