Hi Glyn,

Thank you for your feedback. We are very sorry if you had a bad experience with us.

We try to state the 30% price several places, so it's transparrent what our service costs. I'll be sure to take your feedback forward with the team, to see if we can make it even more clear.

Nevertheless, I can see you still got £385 paid out from us, so I hope that is a bit of a consolation:)

If you have any other feedback, then you are very welcome to reach out to us on support@taxhelper.io.

Best regards,
Aske Buemann

Easy to use but fee is high

Easy to use, quick response. However i failed to notice before completing that they take 30% of the refund as a fee. So i had an email from HMRC saying i was due £60ish but only received £42 from Tax Helper. That error is on my part. Wont use again, will go straight through HMRC next time which is what my partner says he does.

Hi Jen,

Thank you for taking the time to give your feedback - we appreciate it!

My apologies that we didn't make the pricing clear enough. We have it writting on the front page and towards the end when submitting the info to us, but I will definitely take it forward with the team to make it more clear!:)

I'm very happy that you did find it easy and a good response time. Do let us know if there is anything else we can do to improve our service.

Best regards,

Excellent service!

Excellent service!

The process was very easy and the turn around for the money to come through was quick. Still can’t believe I had money owed that I knew nothing about. Thank you so much!
