Kind words from Guida’s valued clients

"John has been our accountant since the incorporation of our company in 2003 and have found him very easy to talk to, he explains everything in a clear and precise manner. John goes that extra mile and is always at the end of the telephone for help and advice. We are really pleased that John has set up his own practice, as we have no doubt that the future of our company is in safe hands."

"I'd absolutely recommend John. Soon after starting my Limited company I quickly learned that the tax and accounting requirements involved were way out of my capability. Finding John was a god-send. He has completely taken the pressure off my shoulders (and my memory!). I get friendly reminders when deadlines are coming up and he always keeps me informed about what needs to be done or what work he's doing. Everything is completed efficiently and submitted on time but I love John's no nonsense approach. Great guy, great service."

"We have worked with John since we started our company in 2003 and were delighted that he started his own business last year. He has always been on hand to give us great advice in a language we can understand and he helps us with our day to day problems with bookkeeping and payroll too."

"Great chap who helped me out superbly, highly recommended....I shall return!!"

John has taken care of my business since day 0, highly recommended, kind, approachable, very skilled, timely, and so patient! I am so happy to have crossed paths with John, our collaboration continues and utmost likely will. I haven't words enough to express my great appreciation and thankfulness for his professional and human approach. Thank you!
