Hi Stephen,

We’re sorry to hear you felt the process was misleading, but just to clarify, Online Filings is a private service provider and not affiliated with GOV.UK or Companies House. This is stated throughout our site, including at checkout, along with the fact that official filing requirements still apply.

We reviewed your order and can see that the filing was not completed because the authentication code was not entered during the authorisation step. This code is required in order to authorise and submit the filing. If the code is not available, there is an option within the platform to request it, so the process can continue once received. We also explain these requirements on our website before checkout, including in the product information and FAQs, so customers can see what is needed before placing an order.

We do also highlight that filing directly with the government is always an option, and some customers prefer our service for the guided process and support.

We’re sorry this didn’t meet your expectations on this occasion. If you do decide to use us again in the future, we’re always happy to help make the process as smooth as possible.

Hi Oskar,

Thanks for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear about your experience.

The filing was not completed because the required onboarding and identity verification steps were not finished, and without those details we are unable to submit any filing through our platform. We also sent reminder emails to prompt completion of the remaining steps, and we explain these requirements on our website before checkout, including in the product information and FAQs, so customers can see what is needed before placing an order.

Online Filings is a private filing service provider, and our website, pricing and checkout clearly state that we are an independent service and not affiliated with GOV.UK or Companies House. Filing directly through GOV.UK is always an option, while many customers choose our service for the convenience and support we provide throughout the process.

We wish you every success with your business and would be glad to help if you choose to use our service again in future.

Hi,

We are sorry to read your comments and would like to clarify what happened.

An order was placed within our platform, however the application was not completed as the required identity verification step was not finished. Before any filing can be submitted, identity verification is required for all users. This is a legal requirement for Authorised Corporate Service Providers under UK Anti-Money Laundering regulations and is outlined in our FAQs, which are available prior to checkout. As this step was not completed, the filing could not be submitted.

When you contacted us, we provided guidance on how to complete the verification so the application could proceed.

Online Filings is a private service provider and is not affiliated with Companies House or GOV.UK. This is clearly stated on our website. Our service is optional and designed to support customers through the filing process, and it is always possible to file directly with Companies House if preferred.

We do, however, appreciate your feedback and wish you all the best with your business. We remain available should you choose to use our service again in the future.

A whole lot of fuss.

Although we had already got Companies House individual codes we were asked to repeat the procedure for Online Filings. This was completed eventually after one of us had problems with the system. After submitting our conformation statement I received emails telling me it was done and a little later another mail saying it had been accepted. Around 10 days later an email from Companies House was received asking for our individual codes. So upon having our identity codes twice somehow Online Filings had managed to not pass them on. I’m now wondering if the submission was actually made to Companies House or not. Can I expect a fine from them soon ? We will see.

Absolute Scam

Absolute Scam. Avoid any contact with them. Paid fees with them and they advised part was a government fee. Been contacted by Companies House and no fee was given to them and had to pay government fee again. I will be passing their details onto the government along with any correspondence and invoices I have paid. Avoid!

I received an email from this company…

I received an email from this company stating they can file my confirmation statements in 5 minutes. After paying 89£, I couldn't complete the process. I called them and requested my money back. Someone called Gabriella from the company called me back and gave me a fake email to request my money. I sent the email,it didn't go through. I called the number again and I couldn't get to anyone. Till date,my confirmation statements was not files, money gone and I cant get through to anyone. Since I cannot communicate with you through any reliable means,I am sure this feedback will get your attention. I need my money back. The confirmation was for Anna and Elvis healthcare services limited. Thank you

Extremely dodgy behaviour that shouldn't be legal.

Received a letter, which makes this company appear to be the official way to file LTD company returns to HMRC. This is my first time filing a company return, so I am expecting such a letter. After scanning their QR and then having it ask me to enter my details to it, it starts to look a bit fishy. So I check them out. They aren't actually HMRC, it's a separate, private company that will process your confirmation for you, and then charge you a fee. So, while they may be a fully registered proper company etc. They are acting in what I believe to be an EXTREMELY dodgy way. Tricking people into paying them money, while you do all the work anyway. It looks like you are being asked to do all the work if filing, entering that info into their portal, and then they will just send that same info into HMRC, and charge you for the privilege of being a piggy in the middle that has zero need to be there.
