I have been using Gorilla Accounting for a few months now, and I have found them to be professional and helpful. Kulsum, my accountant, responds quickly to questions and gives clear answers. I am definitely happy I have chosen to use Gorilla Accounting.

I use Gorilla for two years for both business and personal accounting. The team is normally responsive when I raised queries but the advice was not always useful and/or applicable. I had to come back with queries on info got through another businesses and confirm with them after instead of being advised since beginning. It felt that I, come to them with solution to make the tax more efficient. Another accountant identified some missed opportunities to do business in a more tax-efficient way. I am also disappointed that my personal tax support didn’t offer efficient and forward-looking advice with some possible scenarios I needed to understand how to plan and execute the best way, to achieve the company goals.
Later review: They come back and offered some advice, reactive but still useful. They got my suggestions in a constructive manner and show will to improve. I'll give more time to give the chance to do it.

I stepped into contracting outside IR35 2 years ago and they have helped me tremendously and made it so easy. I was initially worried hearing other peoples woes with accounting but Gorilla Accounting have taken the stress out of it for me. Both Nathan and Hannah have been polite and professional

I’ve had a very good experience with Gorilla Accounting and have been a customer for about 7 years+.
Hannah has been brilliant throughout — quick to respond, efficient, and always helpful. She regularly goes over and above, and I never feel like i’m being left waiting around for an answer.
Really pleased with the service and would happily recommend them and Hannah.

I was sold a package as being perfect for those who have never ran a limited company before and would be supported throughout. All sounded great on the surface and the initial setup of the company was smooth but quickly ran into issues after that point. They struggled to advise me on the best route for tax efficiency or the best way to pay ourselves, most of the information given was things I could already find online. Advice around expenses was very generic. Certainly didn't fee like a tailored service for my situation which is what I was led to believe.
The regular check-ins that were part of my package never happened. Constant mix-up between what I was being told at one point to the next.
I do not know for sure but it certainly felt like I was just given a very junior person and was paying a monthly fee for next to nothing.
I returned to my original accountant from when I was self employed and learned more from a one hour meeting with them than my entire time with Gorilla.

I have recently moved to gorilla accounting (Connor G.) and was very impressed with their onboarding process.
Moving away from our previous accountant has been seamless, and the advice given to date has been excellent - looking forward to a continuing business relationship.

Reply from Gorilla Accounting
Gorilla Accountancy is my first experience of using an account. I've found them to be engaged, professional, and knowledgeable. The process has been straight forward to set up and easy to understand. I'm grateful for the guidance and step by step instructions that I've received from Gorilla and my accountant Anne-Marie. I feel confident that my business is being very well looked after

Reply from Gorilla Accounting
Super efficient and friendly. I like the free agent software and have had great service from accountant Kulsum Fefarawala
I’d highly recommend Gorilla and Kulsum

Reply from Gorilla Accounting
I would highly recommend Gorilla Accounting for anyone moving into contracting. Starting my own company was a daunting prospect but Gorilla made the whole experience easy and straight forward. From registering the company through to day to day management of the accounts in FreeAgent. My dedicated accountant, Kulsum, has been so supportive, prompting me when something is due and responding quickly when I need advice. She always takes the time to explain things clearly. Thank you.

Reply from Gorilla Accounting
Have been guided through this part of my first company ownership really well by Gorilla, thanks to Kulsum. Always available for questions, prompt preparation of filings, and v good advice on efficiency. Would definitely recommend their services.
