Testimonials

We moved from our previous accountants to Albion in 2016, and from the beginning we felt this to be a good move.

Ian soon developed bespoke accounting systems for us to be able relay the information he requires. Such accounting systems mean we need only meet Ian a couple of times a year, allowing us to concentrate on the business.

During the meetings, Ian’s advice is clear and jargon-free. Furthermore, he is always ready to answer our queries in a straight-forward, easy to understand manner

We have been working with Ian Cousins from Albion Accountancy Services for 5 years with two companies and we are very pleased with the service.

Ian is very friendly and approachable. He is very quick to get back to me and always willing to go the extra mile and take time to explain and make sure I understand any of the details of the legalities, accounts and taxation that I am unsure of.

We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him and have done so.

Ian has been a lifesaver for me over these past three years.

His knowledge and understanding of the tax system, as well as his clear and at times light-hearted explanations of the process has meant that I no longer have stress over my finances.

I would highly recommend Ian to anyone.

I would like to thank Ian for his excellent service.

I have always had total support from Ian (as I have only limited accountancy knowledge), any questions that I asked, have always been answered in a way that I find easy to understand.

Ian introduced us to cloud based software, and is always there to help, whether it is a phone call or an email, to help resolve the little mistakes I make. The assistance is outstanding.

We feel confident that Ian has nothing but mine and my business best interests at heart and I would have no hesitation in recommending Ian to anyone who requires accountancy services.

We have been using Ian and Albion’s accounting services since 2013.

From the very start, Ian has proved to be of great help, always willing to provide assistance, and being the go-to person for business and tax advice.

We use the full range of services; everything from accounts, tax returns, VAT returns, payroll and company secretarial services.

From the start-up of the company to the position it is in today, Ian has been with us every step of the way. Knowing that Ian and Albion are in the background ensuring all is well, has allowed us to concentrate on growing the company and increasing the profits each year.

Ian and Albion have supported our company from day one. Albion assisted with the company’s formation, explaining the most suitable company set-up for our requirements. Having Ian handling our accounts, VAT returns, payroll and Companies House submissions, allows us to concentrate on the everyday running of the business.

To help add to the efficiency, Ian arranged for us to use cloud accounting software – FreeAgent. We were a little concerned having never used such software before. However, with Ian’s guidance and on-going ‘helping hand’, we soon became confident in its use and are now able to view the company’s financial position with up to date figures as and when required.

We have been working with Ian and Albion since the start of 2019, and from the very beginning we found Ian to be helpful and responsive to our needs.

Having set up a cloud-based accounting system for us, we no longer have to use up our time completing various spreadsheets and such like. At first, we were a little wary of the new system, but with Ian’s guidance (always willing to help and assist) we soon got the handle of it.

This added efficiency has allowed us to concentrate on the other areas of our business. Furthermore, we are now able to view the financial position of the business in real time, and not have to wait until the final accounts have been prepared.

Ian has been looking after me and my tax returns since 2016. He has devised way for me to get all my expenses and sales invoices to him with minimum fuss. This has allowed me to concentrate on my business. Ian has been especially helpful during the pandemic.

Ian has been my accountant for several years and in this time, he’s always been a fantastic help, overseeing the growth of my business, and helping with the transition into a limited company.

Despite not having any other clients working in my specific field, Ian took the time to learn the ins and outs of tax law specific to my work, and has helped advise and organise my accounts saving me a huge amount of time and money, giving me the confidence that everything is being run above board whilst making the best savings possible.

He’s always on the end of the phone if I have any questions and is regularly willing to meet and discuss tax issues face to face – an invaluably personal approach from a fantastic accountant.

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him.

We have used the payroll services of Albion Accountancy Services for the last three years.

Our small workforce is gradually increasing, and we have quite a complicated holiday pay calculation but, so long as we provide them with the requisite information within the necessary timescales, then they provide us with an excellent, professional service.

We liaise with Ian Cousins who is always helpful, reliable and very easy to work with
