Excellent Customer Service

I had an amazing experience speaking with Debbie Morris on the phone. She was patient and helpful in ensuring that my enquiry was addressed. I chose to give this review because the last couple of engagements seeking information was unsuccessful but Debbie made my day by taking her time to resolve a pressing issue of viewing my pay slips. Thank you for the excellent service Debbie.

This payroll company is appalling

This payroll company is appalling. The worst communication ever, unprofessional staff that can't even provide simple explanation of the payslip. Outrageous of how many people need to lose their money in this tough time.

The worst payroll service provider ever, with terrible interpersonal skills and no pay explanations for their staff.

Absolute shambles!

Absolute shambles!

I’ve never been so disappointed with a a payment company, this companies one and only job is to pay people on time

I have been waiting for my payment for over 24 hours now, after being told it would be in for certain yesterday.

Totally unacceptable and has left my financial security at risk! I want answers and I want it now, I also want paying.

If you can avoid using this absolute S**tShow then I would they’re impossible to deal with.

Debbie Morris is an absolute diamond

After having a few issues setting up my account after being bounced into umbrella and a drawn out process of proving I have a right to work in a country I've been born in and lived all my life , Debbie Morris took the time to contact me and simplify the process. Going above what I expected..and if so m to be frank,. I'd have sacked it off if it wasn't for her cheery calm informative persona ...whatever she is paid is not enough ...it's people like her that make a company..

You Ship Shap and your customer need to know this.

Hi after 20 years in London working as engineer with many different agency and pay roll companies.
Even if at first I wasn't happy to be told I could only use ship shap for my payments.
But after all has been so good.
Starting with Chris which I callcontiunisly every week and so many times.
Never I felt I was too much.
He is always so happy to help and with a great service.
Don't even mention the pay roll department staff you are amazing and great peoples, Debbie and all.
Guys we all need pay the tax and mediation for our time sheet to be progressed.
But here at Ship Shap you money is spent well and well valued.
Well done Ship Shap.

Assist with P45.

I was assisted by Debbie earlier this year, who sent me a P60. It seemed almost as soon as I asked.
Again, when I need help, Debbie was on the case and all was sorted.
Many thanks, your an absolute credit to shipshape.

Debbie was patient

I would like to take my hat off to Debbie. she chased me for over a week. I asked for a call back after 6pm. She called me back and done my registration. I only noticed after the call the office actually closed at 5:30 so she has done this in her own time, cheers Debbie.
